+module: lineinfile
+short_description: Manage lines in text files
+description:
+ - This module ensures a particular line is in a file, or replace an
+ existing line using a back-referenced regular expression.
+ - This is primarily useful when you want to change a single line in a file only.
+ - See the M(ansible.builtin.replace) module if you want to change multiple, similar lines
+ or check M(ansible.builtin.blockinfile) if you want to insert/update/remove a block of lines in a file.
+ For other cases, see the M(ansible.builtin.copy) or M(ansible.builtin.template) modules.
+version_added: "0.7"
+options:
+ path:
+ description:
+ - The file to modify.
+ - Before Ansible 2.3 this option was only usable as I(dest), I(destfile) and I(name).
+ type: path
+ required: true
+ aliases: [ dest, destfile, name ]
+ regexp:
+ description:
+ - The regular expression to look for in every line of the file.
+ - For C(state=present), the pattern to replace if found. Only the last line found will be replaced.
+ - For C(state=absent), the pattern of the line(s) to remove.
+ - If the regular expression is not matched, the line will be
+ added to the file in keeping with C(insertbefore) or C(insertafter)
+ settings.
+ - When modifying a line the regexp should typically match both the initial state of
+ the line as well as its state after replacement by C(line) to ensure idempotence.
+ - Uses Python regular expressions. See U(https://docs.python.org/3/library/re.html).
+ type: str
+ aliases: [ regex ]
+ version_added: '1.7'
+ search_string:
+ description:
+ - The literal string to look for in every line of the file. This does not have to match the entire line.
+ - For C(state=present), the line to replace if the string is found in the file. Only the last line found will be replaced.
+ - For C(state=absent), the line(s) to remove if the string is in the line.
+ - If the literal expression is not matched, the line will be
+ added to the file in keeping with C(insertbefore) or C(insertafter)
+ settings.

+ line:
+ description:

+ type: str
+ aliases: [ value ]
+ backrefs:
+ description:
+ - Used with C(state=present).
+ - If set, C(line) can contain backreferences (both positional and named)
+ that will get populated if the C(regexp) matches.
+ - This parameter changes the operation of the module slightly;
+ C(insertbefore) and C(insertafter) will be ignored, and if the C(regexp)
+ does not match anywhere in the file, the file will be left unchanged.
+ - If the C(regexp) does match, the last matching line will be replaced by
+ the expanded line parameter.
+ - Mutually exclusive with C(search_string).
+ type: bool
+ default: no
+ version_added: "1.1"
+ insertafter:
+ description:
+ - Used with C(state=present).
+ - If specified, the line will be inserted after the last match of specified regular expression.
+ - If the first match is required, use(firstmatch=yes).
+ - A special value is available; C(EOF) for inserting the line at the end of the file.
+ - If specified regular expression has no matches, EOF will be used instead.
+ - If C(insertbefore) is set, default value C(EOF) will be ignored.
+ - If regular expressions are passed to both C(regexp) and C(insertafter), C(insertafter) is only honored if no match for C(regexp) is found.
+ - May not be used with C(backrefs) or C(insertbefore).
+ type: str
+ choices: [ EOF, '*regex*' ]
+ default: EOF
+ insertbefore:
+ description:
+ - Used with C(state=present).
+ - If specified, the line will be inserted before the last match of specified regular expression.
+ - If the first match is required, use C(firstmatch=yes).
+ - A value is available; C(BOF) for inserting the line at the beginning of the file.
+ - If specified regular expression has no matches, the line will be inserted at the end of the file.
+ - If regular expressions are passed to both C(regexp) and C(insertbefore), C(insertbefore) is only honored if no match for C(regexp) is found.
+ - May not be used with C(backrefs) or C(insertafter).
