lineinfile using insertafter

[Chris Bidwell - NOAA Federal]

Hey all,

Trying to insert a line to multiple instances in the same file.  

I tried insertafter but that only put in one spot.  Here's the code:

    - name: add proxy to zabbix.repo if needed
      lineinfile:
        path: /etc/yum.repos.d/zabbix.repo
        state: present
        insertafter: '\[zabbix*'
        line: 'proxy=http://proxy:8080'
      when:
        - ansible_default_ipv4.address is match('192\.168\.226\.') or
          ansible_default_ipv4.address is match('10\.172\.226\.')

Here's the result:

[zabbix]
name=Zabbix Official Repository - $basearch
baseurl=https://repo.zabbix.com/zabbix/4.4/rhel/8/$basearch/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-ZABBIX-A14FE591

[zabbix-non-supported]
proxy=http://proxy:8080                                                                                                                                              
name=Zabbix Official Repository non-supported - $basearch

baseurl=https://repo.zabbix.com/non-supported/rhel/8/$basearch/
enabled=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-ZABBIX
gpgcheck=1

I would have thought my insertafter regexp would match both of those [zabbix] and [zabbix-non-supported] but it doesn't.

No, lineinfile replaces one line. But why don't you set the proxy variable globally for yum / your system?

It would be a lot easier to accomplish this with the ini_file module instead of lineinfile.  For example:

- ini_file:

    path: /etc/yum.repos.d/zabbix.repo

    section: zabbix-non-supported

    option: proxy

    value: http://proxy:8080

Because I've got checks that applies the proxy based of which subnet the playbook runs on.
