state

Either “present” or “absent” or “enabled” or “disabled”, defaults to “present”

present - make sure that the repo is available, needs uri and repo_desc for all following states, the repo can be searched via repo_id or uri
absent - drop the repo if found +
enabled - a repo can have state disabled if installed via zypper service (ris), in this case, you can enable the repo
disabled - instead of absent (drop), a repo can also set to disabled, which makes it inaccessible
