Adds missing sections if they don't exist. version_added: "0.9" options: dest: description: - Path to the INI-style file; this file is created if required required: true default: null section: description: - Section name in INI file. This is added if C(state=present) automatically when a single value is being set. required: true default: null option: description: - if set (required for changing a I(value)), this is the name of the option. - May be omitted if adding/removing a whole I(section). required: false default: null value: description: - the string value to be associated with an I(option). May be omitted when removing an I(option). required: false default: null backup: description: - Create a backup file including the timestamp information so you can get the original file back if you somehow clobbered it incorrectly. required: false default: no choices: [ "yes", "no" ] others: description: - all arguments accepted by the M(file) module also work here required: false examples: - code: "ini_file: dest=/etc/conf section=drinks option=fav value=lemonade mode=0600 backup=yes" description: Ensure C(fav=lemonade) is in section C([drinks]) in said file - code: | ini_file: dest=/etc/anotherconf section=drinks option=temperature value=cold backup=yes notes: - While it is possible to add an I(option) without specifying a I(value), this makes no sense. - A section named C(default) cannot be added by the module, but if it exists, individual options within the section can be updated. (This is a limitation of Python's I(ConfigParser).) Either use M(template) to create a base INI file with a C([default]) section, or use M(lineinfile) to add the missing line. requirements: [ ConfigParser ] author: Jan-Piet Mens ''' import ConfigParser # ============================================================== # do_ini def do_ini(module, filename, section=None, option=None, value=None, state='present', backup=False): changed = False cp = ConfigParser.ConfigParser() try: f = open(filename) cp.readfp(f) except IOError: pass if state == 'absent': if option is None and value is None: if cp.has_section(section): cp.remove_section(section) changed = True else: if option is not None: try: if cp.get(section, option): cp.remove_option(section, option) changed = True except: pass if state == 'present': if cp.has_section(section) == False: if section.upper() == 'DEFAULT': module.fail_json(msg="[DEFAULT] is an illegal section name") cp.add_section(section) changed = True if option is not None and value is not None: try: oldvalue = cp.get(section, option) if str(value) != str(oldvalue): cp.set(section, option, value) changed = True except ConfigParser.NoSectionError: cp.set(section, option, value) changed = True except ConfigParser.NoOptionError: cp.set(section, option, value) changed = True if changed: if backup: module.backup_local(filename) try: f = open(filename, 'w') cp.write(f) except: module.fail_json(msg="Can't creat %s" % filename) return changed # ============================================================== # main def main(): module = AnsibleModule( argument_spec = dict( dest = dict(required=True), section = dict(required=True), option = dict(required=False), value = dict(required=False), backup = dict(default='no', choices=BOOLEANS, type='bool'), state = dict(default='present', choices=['present', 'absent']) ), add_file_common_args = True ) info = dict() dest = os.path.expanduser(module.params['dest']) section = module.params['section'] option = module.params['option'] value = module.params['value'] state = module.params['state'] backup = module.params['backup'] changed = do_ini(module, dest, section, option, value, state, backup) file_args = module.load_file_common_arguments(module.params) changed = module.set_file_attributes_if_different(file_args, changed) # Mission complete module.exit_json(dest=dest, changed=changed, msg="OK") # this is magic, see lib/ansible/module_common.py #<> main()
