Add support for a 'match' parameter to file_line #75

Commits on Jun 7, 2012

  1. Add support for a 'match' parameter to file_line

    This commit adds a new parameter called "match"
    to the file_line resource type, and support for
    this new parameter to the corresponding ruby
    provider.
    
    This parameter is optional; file_line should work
    just as before if you do not specify this parameter...
    so this change should be backwards-compatible.
    
    If you do specify the parameter, it is treated
    as a regular expression that should be used when
    looking through the file for a line.  This allows
    you to do things like find a line that begins with
    a certain prefix (e.g., "foo=.*"), and *replace*
    the existing line with the line you specify in your
    "line" parameter.  Without this capability, if you
    already had a line "foo=bar" in your file and your
    "line" parameter was set to "foo=baz", you'd end up
    with *both* lines in the final file.  In many cases
    this is undesirable.
