Description
Installs debian packages via attributes or data bag metadata.
Requirements
Chef
Tested on 0.10.8 but newer and older version should work just fine.
Platform
The following platforms have been tested with this cookbook, meaning that the
recipes run on these platforms without error:
- ubuntu
- debian
Cookbooks
There are no external cookbook dependencies. If you want speedup this
cookbook funtionality, you can add the dpkg ohai plugin to your nodes.
The cookbook will force to the apt cookbook (if it is running in the node)
to perform an apt-update if it tries to install a package.
Installation
Just place the dpkg_packages directory in your chef cookbook directory and
upload it to your Chef server.
Usage
Simply include recipe[dpkg_packages]
in your run_list and populate the
node['dpkg_packages']['pkgs']
attribute list.
Recipes
default
Processes a list of pkgs (which is emtpy by default) to be installed.
Use this recipe when you have a list of packages in
node['dpkg_packages']['pkgs']
.
To use the databag feature, you should create a data bag (the cookbook uses
pkgs
by default) with items where are defined what packages will be
processed (the default item is the platform name).
For example:
debian item of the pkgs databag:
{
"id" : "debian",
"pkgs" : {
"rsync": true,
"acl": true,
"bzip2": { "action": "install", "options": "--force-yes", "platform_version": "> 6.0" },
"less": true,
"unzip": true,
"zip": true,
"dnsutils": { "version": "1:9.7.3.dfsg-1~squeeze5", "action": "install" },
"whois": true,
"iproute": true,
"tcpdump": true,
"nmap": false,
"curl": true,
"wget": true,
"ethtool": true,
"lsb-release": { "action": "install", "options": "--force-yes" },
"screen": true,
"gzip": true,
"tar": true,
"bash-completion": true,
"psmisc": true,
"strace": { "action": "remove" }
}
}
Attributes
pkgs
A hash of hashes where are defined what packages will be processed on the system.
The keys of the hash correspond to the packages name, and the hash associated to
these keys, correspond to the attributes passed to the package resource
(action, version, source, options). There is a special attribute (platform_version
)
that defines if the package will be processed or not, according the
node["platform_version"]
attribute. When the key corresponds to a boolean value
instead a hash, the package will be installed according if it is true
or false
.
node['dpkg_packages']['pkgs'] = {
"nagios-nrpe-server" => { "action" => :install, "options" => "-y --force-yes", "version" => "2.12-4ubuntu1.11.04.2" },
"nagios-plugins" => { "action" => :install, "options" => "--force-yes" },
"nsca" => true,
"munin-plugins-extra" => true,
"munin-plugins-core" => { "action" => :install, "platform_version": "> 6.0" }
}
The default is an empty Hash: {}
.
data_bag
To install packages defined in a data bag, you should set the following attributes:
node['dpkg_packages']['data_bag']['name'] = 'DATA_BAG_NAME'
node['dpkg_packages']['data_bag']['items'] = %w{ ITEM1 ITEM2 ... ITEMX }
node['dpkg_packages']['data_bag']['name']
is "pkgs" by default
node['dpkg_packages']['data_bag']['items']
is an array of strings. Each element
is a the items id of the databag described above where are defined the packages that
will be processed.
If you don't want to install packages defined in a data bag, set
node['dpkg_packages']['data_bag']
to false:
node['dpkg_packages']['data_bag'] = false
Resources and Providers
There are none defined.
Libraries
This cookbook provides two useful functions that can be used in a recipe or in a [resource][resource]:
debian_package_info(package_name)
returns a Hash with info about the package.
debian_package_version(package_name, package_version)
returns true if the package is
installed.
