+validate_augeas

+Perform validation of a string using an Augeas lens
+The first argument of this function should be a string to
+test, and the second argument should be the name of the Augeas lens to use.
+If Augeas fails to parse the string with the lens, the compilation will
+abort with a parse error.
+
+A third argument can be specified, listing paths which should
+not be found in the file. The `$file` variable points to the location
+of the temporary file being tested in the Augeas tree.
+
+For example, if you want to make sure your passwd content never contains
+a user `foo`, you could write:
+
+    validate_augeas($passwdcontent, 'Passwd.lns', ['$file/foo'])
+
+Or if you wanted to ensure that no users used the '/bin/barsh' shell,
+you could use:
+
+    validate_augeas($passwdcontent, 'Passwd.lns', ['$file/*[shell="/bin/barsh"]']
+
+If a fourth argument is specified, this will be the error message raised and
+seen by the user.
+
+A helpful error message can be returned like this:
+
+    validate_augeas($sudoerscontent, 'Sudoers.lns', [], 'Failed to validate sudoers content with Augeas')
