# salt.modules.logrotate

Module for managing logrotate.

`salt.modules.logrotate.` `set_`(key, value, setting=None, conf_file='/etc/logrotate.conf')

  Set a new value for a specific configuration line

  CLI Example:

      salt '*' logrotate.set rotate 2

  Can also be used to set a single value inside a multiline configuration block. For instance, to change rotate in the following block:

      /var/log/wtmp {
          monthly
          create 0664 root root
          rotate 1
      }

  Use the following command:

      salt '*' logrotate.set /var/log/wtmp rotate 2

  This module also has the ability to scan files inside an include directory, and make changes in the appropriate file.

`salt.modules.logrotate.` `show_conf`(conf_file='/etc/logrotate.conf')

  Show parsed configuration

  CLI Example:

      salt '*' logrotate.show_conf
