# Usage:
#
# replace { description: 
#           file => "filename",
#           pattern => "regexp",
#           replacement => "replacement"
#
# Example:
# To replace the current port in /etc/munin/munin-node.conf
# with a new port, but only disturbing the file when needed:
#
# replace { set_munin_node_port:
# 	file => "/etc/munin/munin-node.conf",
# 	pattern => "^port (?!$port)[0-9]*",
# 	replacement => "port $port"
# }
