Chef Cookbook Chef

The default cookbook gets the environment ready to develop chef cookbooks by installing chef-workstation.

Requirements

Supported Platforms

• Debian Buster

Chef

• Chef 13.0+

Cookbook Depdendencies

Usage

Add the cookbook as a dependency, e.g. in your Berksfile:

cookbook 'codenamephp_chef', '~> 2.0.0'

Then use the resource in your recipes.

Resources

Workstation

The codenamephp_chef_workstation installs the chef-workstation package from the apt repository. The repository is not added automatically! You
use codenamephp_chef_repository first or add the repository yourself. If you don't care at all about the repository you can set the
add_default_chef_repo property to true. It then calls the repository resource for you with its defaults which means you lose control over the
repository settings.

Actions

• install: Installs the resource

Properties

• puge_chefdk: Boolean to purge the chefdk (old package) prior to installing, defaults to false
• add_default_chef_repo: Boolean to add the default chef repo using the codenamephp_chef_repository with the default values. It's recommended that you use the resource yourself beforehand but this is a nice shortcut if you don't care about the repo and just need any chef workstation version #### Examples ```ruby # Minimal properties recipe do codenamephp_chef_workstation 'Install chef-workstation' end

add chef repo

recipe do
codenamephp_chef_workstation 'Install chef-workstation' do
add_default_chef_repo true
end
end

don't purge chefdk

recipe do
codenamephp_chef_workstation 'Install chef-workstation' do
purge_chefdk false
end
end
```

Environment

The codenamephp_chef_environment resource adds the chef init command and the chef ruby bin to path by using codenamephp_bash to manage bashrc.d
configs for the given user.

Actions

• install: Installs the bash files to init chef

Properties

• users: Array of usernames as strings for which the envirnment should be installed
• skel: Boolean to enable the management of /etc/skel so users that are created after chef will get the chef init as well, defaults to false

Examples

# Minimal properties
codenamephp_chef_environment 'Setup chef' do
  users %w[user1 user2]
end

# also manage skel
recipe do
  codenamephp_chef_environment 'Setup chef' do
    users %w[user1 user2]
    skel true
  end
end

Repository

The codenamephp_chef_repository resource adds the chef repository to apt so the workstation resource can do its thing. Should be used before codenamephp_chef_workstation

Actions

• install: Installs the repository
• remove: Removes the repository

Properties

• channel: (stable|current) Sets the channel to use for apt. Defaults to 'current' so the latest version is used

Examples

# Minimal properties
codenamephp_chef_repository 'Add chef repo' do
  users %w[user1 user2]
end

# use stable
recipe do
  codenamephp_chef_repository 'Add chef repo with stable' do
    channel 'stable'
  end
end
