Poise-Javascript Cookbook
A Chef cookbook to provide a unified interface for
installing server-side JavaScript runtimes like Node.js and io.js.
Quick Start
To install the latest available version of Node.js 0.12:
javascript_runtime '0.12'
Supported JavaScript Runtimes
This cookbook can install Node.js and io.js on Linux and OS X.
Requirements
Chef 12 or newer is required.
Attributes
Attributes are used to configure the default recipe.
-
node['poise-javascript']['install_nodejs']
– Install a Node.js runtime. (default: true) -
node['poise-javascript']['install_iojs']
– Install an io.js runtime. (default: false)
Recipes
default
The default recipe installs Node.js or io.js based on the node attributes. It is
entirely optional and can be ignored in favor of direct use of the
javascript_runtime
resource.
Resources
javascript_runtime
The javascript_runtime
resource installs a JavaScript interpreter.
javascript_runtime '0.12'
Actions
-
:install
– Install the JavaScript interpreter. (default) -
:uninstall
– Uninstall the JavaScript interpreter.
Properties
-
version
– Version of the runtime to install. If a partial version is given, use the latest available version matching that prefix. (name property)
Provider Options
The poise-javascript
library offers an additional way to pass configuration
information to the final provider called "options". Options are key/value pairs
that are passed down to the javascript_runtime
provider and can be used to control how it
installs JavaScript. These can be set in the javascript_runtime
resource using the options
method, in node attributes or via the
javascript_runtime_options
resource. The options from all sources are merged
together in to a single hash.
When setting options in the resource you can either set them for all providers:
javascript_runtime 'myapp' do version '0.10' options dev_package: false end
or for a single provider:
javascript_runtime 'myapp' do version '0.10' options :system, dev_package: false end
Setting via node attributes is generally how an end-user or application cookbook
will set options to customize installations in the library cookbooks they are using.
You can set options for all installations or for a single runtime:
# Global, for all installations. override['poise-javascript']['options']['version'] = '0.10' # Single installation. override['poise-javascript']['myapp']['version'] = 'iojs'
The javascript_runtime_options
resource is also available to set node attributes
for a specific installation in a DSL-friendly way:
javascript_runtime_options 'myapp' do version 'iojs' end
Unlike resource attributes, provider options can be different for each provider.
Not all providers support the same options so make sure to the check the
documentation for each provider to see what options the use.
javascript_runtime_options
The javascript_runtime_options
resource allows setting provider options in a
DSL-friendly way. See the Provider Options section for more
information about provider options overall.
javascript_runtime_options 'myapp' do version 'iojs' end
Actions
-
:run
– Apply the provider options. (default)
Properties
-
resource
– Name of thejavascript_runtime
resource. (name property) -
for_provider
– Provider to set options for.
All other attribute keys will be used as options data.
javascript_execute
The javascript_execute
resource executes a JavaScript script using the configured runtime.
javascript_execute 'myapp.js' do user 'myuser' end
This uses the built-in execute
resource and supports all the same properties.
Actions
-
:run
– Execute the script. (default)
Properties
-
command
– Script and arguments to run. Must not include thenode
. (name attribute) -
javascript
– Name of thejavascript_runtime
resource to use. If not specified, the most recently declaredjavascript_runtime
will be used. Can also be set to the full path to anode
binary.
For other properties see the Chef documentation.
node_package
The node_package
resource installs Node.js packages using
NPM.
node_package 'express' do version '4.13.3' end
This uses the built-in package
resource and supports the same actions and
properties. Multi-package installs are supported using the standard syntax.
Actions
-
:install
– Install the package. (default) -
:upgrade
– Upgrade the package. -
:remove
– Uninstall the package.
The :purge
and :reconfigure
actions are not supported.
Properties
-
group
– System group to install the package. -
package_name
– Package or packages to install. (name property) -
path
– Path to install the package in to. If unset install using--global
. (default: nil) -
version
– Version or versions to install. -
javascript
– Name of thejavascript_runtime
resource to use. If not specified, the most recently declaredjavascript_runtime
will be used. Can also be set to the full path to anode
binary. -
unsafe_perm
– Enable--unsafe-perm
. (default: true) -
user
– System user to install the package.
For other properties see the Chef documentation.
The response_file
, response_file_variables
, and source
properties are not
supported.
npm_install
The npm_install
resource runs npm install
for a package.
npm_install '/opt/myapp'
The underlying npm install
command will run on every converge, but notifications
will only be triggered if a package is actually installed.
Actions
-
:install
– Runnpm install
. (default)
Properties
-
path
– Path to the package folder containing apackage.json
. (name attribute) -
group
– System group to install the packages. -
javascript
– Name of thejavascript_runtime
resource to use. If not specified, the most recently declaredjavascript_runtime
will be used. Can also be set to the full path to anode
binary. -
production
– Enable production install mode. (default: true) -
unsafe_perm
– Enable--unsafe-perm
. (default: true) -
user
– System user to install the packages.
Javascript Providers
Common Options
These provider options are supported by all providers.
-
version
– Override the runtime version.
system
The system
provider installs Node.js using system packages. This is currently
only tested on platforms using apt-get
and yum
(Debian, Ubuntu, RHEL, CentOS
Amazon Linux, and Fedora). It may work on other platforms but is untested.
javascript_runtime 'myapp' do provider :system version '0.10' end
Options
-
dev_package
– Install the package with the headers and other development files. Can be set to a string to select the dev package specifically. (default: true) -
package_name
– Override auto-detection of the package name. -
package_upgrade
– Install using action:upgrade
. (default: false) -
package_version
– Override auto-detection of the package version.
scl
The scl
provider installs Node.js using the Software Collections
packages. This is only available on RHEL and CentOS. SCL offers more
recent versions of Node.js than the system packages for the most part. If an SCL
package exists for the requests version, it will be used in preference to the
system
provider.
javascript_runtime 'myapp' do provider :scl version '0.10' end
nodejs
The nodejs
provider installs Node.js from the static binaries on nodejs.org.
Support is included for Linux and OS X.
javascript_runtime 'myapp' do provider :nodejs version '0.12' end
Options
-
path
– Folder to install Node.js to. (default: /opt/nodejs-<version>) -
static_version
– Specific version number to use for computing the URL and path. (default: automatic fromversion
) -
strip_components
– Value to pass to tar --strip-components. (automatic) -
url
– URL template to download the archive from. (default: automatic)
iojs
The iojs
provider installs io.js from the static binaries on iojs.org.
Support is included for Linux and OS X.
javascript_runtime 'myapp' do provider :iojs version '3' end
Options
-
path
– Folder to install io.js to. (default: /opt/iojs-<version>) -
static_version
– Specific version number to use for computing the URL and path. (default: automatic fromversion
) -
strip_components
– Value to pass to tar --strip-components. (automatic) -
