I have a list of lines I want to add to a file on the target system if they don't exist. I don't want to wholesale overwrite the file, and I don't want to write dozens of lineinfile: statements.
Is it possible to do the equivalent of: while read line; do if grep "$line" /target/file >/dev/null 2>&1 ; then : ; else echo $line >> /target/file; fi done < /source/file -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
