How to make Augeas script with conditions

Question

Ok, I learned how to make a script in augeas but as stated in the answer, the simple file creates a new entry in the file.

I need some conditions (if - else) or at least if (condition) not true do...

I was searching on the internet and found only examples in Puppet. But I dont want to install puppet. Is there a way to tell Augeas only to add node if conditions are (not) met?

There's no logic operators in the Augeas language (yet). See this thread for more info on the status of adding it (possibly embedding lua in the C bindings).

If you need such logic, I'd recommend you currently use bindings (Ruby, Python, PHP, Perl, etc. You choose ;))
