Can edit_line be used multiple times in the same files promise?
Given the encouragement in the documentaion to create reusable templates, I
expected it to be the case. However, given this input:
body common control
{
bundlesequence => { "edit" };
}
bundle agent edit
{
files:
"/tmp/editfile"
create => "true",
edit_defaults => EmptyFile,
edit_line => InsertLine("Hello World"),
edit_line => InsertLine("Goodbye World");
}
body edit_defaults EmptyFile
{
empty_file_before_editing => "true";
}
bundle edit_line InsertLine(line)
{
insert_lines:
"$(line)";
}
cf-agent reports:
cf3 .........................................................
cf3 Promise: /tmp/editfile
cf3 .........................................................
cf3
cf3 Build file model from a blank slate (emptying)
cf3 Inconsistent edit_line constraints break this promise
cf3 -> Handling file edits in edit_line bundle InsertLine
cf3
cf3 * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
cf3 BUNDLE InsertLine( {'Goodbye World'} )
cf3 * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
and only inserts the second of the two lines (NB I know that both lines could
be inserted via a single call of InsertLine with a multi-line string).
I don't understand what 'Inconsistent edit_line constraints break this promise'
is telling me.
