create_ini_settings is a function that allows you to create
ini_setting resources from a simple hash:
$settings = { section1 => {
setting1 => val1
},
section2 => {
setting2 => val2,
setting3 => {
ensure => absent
}
}
}
$defaults = {
path => '/tmp/foo.ini'
}
create_ini_settings($settings,$defaults)
Will create the following resources
ini_setting{'[section1] setting1':
ensure => present,
section => 'section1',
setting => 'setting1',
value => 'val1',
path => '/tmp/foo.ini',
}
ini_setting{'[section2] setting2':
ensure => present,
section => 'section2',
setting => 'setting2',
value => 'val2',
path => '/tmp/foo.ini',
}
ini_setting{'[section2] setting3':
ensure => absent,
section => 'section2',
setting => 'setting3',
path => '/tmp/foo.ini',
}
This allows one to create much easier classes
that should be able to manage an arbritary set of
ini-style settings without having to specify each
one of them.
