Description:
This module allows for the management of users and groups on minion systems within a Func environment. Tasks such as ensuring the existence of a particular user/group, creating a desired user/group, modifying the properties of a specified user/group, or managing the group memberships of users are within the scope of this module's intended functionality.
Plan for version v0.5:
As nearly all core functionality for day to day user and group management is at this point complete, release 0.5 is expected to be a candidate for final release.
GECOS Field Manipulation Methods: Currently, the GECOS field can only be manipulated as a single unit. Version 0.5 will fill in this remaining gap in functionality by providing getter/setter methods for all subfields of the GECOS field.
Changelog:
