module: assemble
short_description: Assembles a configuration file from fragments
description:
     - Assembles a configuration file from fragments. Often a particular
       program will take a single configuration file and does not support a
       C(conf.d) style structure where it is easy to build up the configuration
       from multiple sources. Assemble will take a directory of files that have
       already been transferred to the system, and concatenate them together to
       produce a destination file. Files are assembled in string sorting order.
       Puppet calls this idea I(fragments).
version_added: "0.5"
options:
  src:
    description:
      - An already existing directory full of source files.
    required: true
    default: null
    aliases: []
  dest:
    description:
      - A file to create using the concatenation of all of the source files.
    required: true
    default: null
  backup:
    description:
      - Create a backup file (if C(yes)), including the timestamp information so
        you can get the original file back if you somehow clobbered it
        incorrectly.
    required: false
    choices: [ "yes", "no" ]
    default: "no"
  others:
    description:
      - all arguments accepted by the M(file) module also work here
    required: false
examples:
   - code: assemble src=/etc/someapp/fragments dest=/etc/someapp/someapp.conf
