I figured out how to send an array of pattern/replacement pairs to a generic
edit_line body based on the set_variable_values bundle in the stdlib (see
below.) What I don't fully understand is how the array passing works,
specifically, why I need to fully qualify the array, and not use a "@" ... I
can't find anything in the docs about this, my best guess is that what's being
sent is a reference to the array and not the array itself. I'd like to
understand what's happening here if somebody can clarify;
edit_line => test_edit("test_bundle.edits");
bundle agent test_bundle
{
vars:
"edits[#OPTIONS=\"\"]" string => "OPTIONS=\"-O fsc\"";
"edits[#APPEND_OPTIONS=\"yes\"]" string => "APPEND_OPTIONS=\"yes\"";
files:
vcf::
"/tmp/autofs"
handle => "test_edit",
edit_line => test_edit("test_bundle.edits");
}
bundle edit_line test_edit(e)
{
vars:
"index" slist => getindices("$(e)");
replace_patterns:
"$(index)" replace_with => value("$($(e)[$(index)])");
}
