I am trying to figure out how to use replace or lineinfile to remove a

[domain/example]
cache_credentials = false
enumerate = true
ldap_schema = rfc2307
ldap_rfc2307_fallback_to_local_users = true
ldap_search_base = dc=example,dc=com
id_provider = ldap
auth_provider = ldap
chpass_provider = ldap
sudo_provider = ldap
ldap_uri = ldaps://ldap1.example.com:636,
ldaps://ldap2.example.com:636,
ldaps://ldap3.example.com:636
ldap_chpass_uri = ldaps://ldap1.example.com:636
ldap_tls_reqcert = allow
access_provider = simple
simple_allow_groups = example_admins
[sssd]
...
I tried this:
- replace:
path: '/home/admin/sssd.conf'
regexp: '.*'
before: '[sssd]'
backup: yes
My thought is that this would remove every line before '[sssd]'.
The before is also regexp so you need to escape the [] too.
If you do that it will delete everything from the start of the file to
the [sssd]
But instead it pretty much deletes the whole file.
Since it can't find [sssd] because of the missing escape it will remove
the content of every line.
I have a workaround using
sed via the command module. But I'd like to use replace or lineinfile.
Any
ideas? I also figured I could use a loop of regexps. Just seem like
this
should be simple. Heck the sed is simple for this.
sed -i '/^\[domain\/example\]/,/^$/d' /etc/sssd/sssd.conf
This one will work more or less like you sed
- replace:
path: /home/admin/sssd.conf
regexp: '(?s)\[domain/example\].*?^$'
backup: yes
