The module is mainly used to look for or change a single line in a text file. A typical use case is to ensure that a particular line is in a file, based on a regular expression. Another case is to replace an existing line using a back-referenced regular expression.
Module Parameters
state
line (value)
The line to be inserted.
insertafter
Used with state=present. The specified line will be inserted after the last match of the regular expression presented as value of insertafter, or, if the regular expression is not provided, after EOF.
