# Cron Plugin: The goal of this plugin is to provide an indempotent method for
# setting up cron jobs on a host. The script will play well with other manually
# entered crons. Each cron job entered will be preceded with a comment
# describing the job so that it can be found later, which is required to be
# present in order for this plugin to find/modify the job.

    # The minute/hour/day/month/weekday default to '*'.
    #
    # The following example playbooks:
    # - action: cron name="check dirs" hour="5,2" job="ls -alh > /dev/null"
    # - name: do the job
    #   action: name="do the job" cron hour="5,2" job="/some/dir/job.sh"

    # * * 5,2 * * ls -alh > /dev/null
    # # Ansible: do the job
    # * * 5,2 * * /some/dir/job.sh

    # Function:
    # 1. dump the existing cron:
    #    crontab -l -u <user> > /tmp/tmpfile
    # 2. search for comment "^# Ansible: <name>" followed by a cron.
    # 3. if absent: remove if present (and say modified), otherwise return with no mod.
    # 4. if present: if the same return no mod, if not present add (and say mod), if different add (and say mod)
    # 5. Install new cron (if mod):
    #    crontab -u <user> /tmp/tmpfile
    # 6. return mod
