short_description: Edit XFCE4 Configurations
description:
  - This module allows for the manipulation of Xfce 4 Configuration with the help of
    xfconf-query.  Please see the xfconf-query(1) man pages for more details.

  - name: C(xfconf-query) man page
    description: Manual page of the C(xfconf-query) tool at the XFCE documentation site.

options:
  channel:
    description:
      - A Xfconf preference channel is a top-level tree key, inside of the
        Xfconf repository that corresponds to the location for which all
        application properties/keys are stored. See man xfconf-query(1).
    required: true

  property:
    description:
      - A Xfce preference key is an element in the Xfconf repository
        that corresponds to an application preference. See man xfconf-query(1).
    required: true
    type: str
  value:
    description:
      - Preference properties typically have simple values such as strings,
        integers, or lists of strings and integers. See man xfconf-query(1).
    type: list
    elements: raw
  value_type:
    description:
      - The type of value being set.
      - When providing more than one I(value_type), the length of the list must
        be equal to the length of I(value).
      - If only one I(value_type) is provided, but I(value) contains more than
        on element, that I(value_type) will be applied to all elements of I(value).
      - If the I(property) being set is an array and it can possibly have ony one
        element in the array, then I(force_array=true) must be used to ensure
        that C(xfconf-query) will interpret the value as an array rather than a
        scalar.
      - Support for C(uchar), C(char), C(uint64), and C(int64) has been added in community.general 4.8.0.
    type: list
    elements: str
    choices: [ string, int, double, bool, uint, uchar, char, uint64, int64, float ]
  state:
    type: str
    description:
      - The action to take upon the property/value.
      - The state C(get) has been removed in community.general 5.0.0. Please use the module M(community.general.xfconf_info) instead.
    choices: [ present, absent ]
    default: "present"
  force_array:
    description:
      - Force array even if only one element
    type: bool
    default: 'no'
    aliases: ['array']
    version_added: 1.0.0
  disable_facts:
    description:
      - The value C(false) is no longer allowed since community.general 4.0.0.
      - This option will be deprecated in a future version, and eventually be removed.
    type: bool
    default: true
    version_added: 2.1.0
