chef-server-ingredient Cookbook

This cookbook is used by CHEF in Hosted Chef to manage Chef Server and Chef Server add-on component installation and reconfiguration. It provides no useful recipes. Instead, wrapper cookbooks should be created using the resource that this cookbook contains.

As of initial release, the cookbook borrows from, but does not use Packagecloud's cookbook to set up the repository where we publish Chef Server packages.

Requirements

Platform:

• Ubuntu 10.04, 12.04, 14.04
• CentOS 6

Cookbooks:

• packagecloud

Resources

chef_server_ingredient

A "chef server ingredient" is the core package itself, or any add-on component published by CHEF. This resource manages the installation and running the ctl reconfigure of individual packages.

Actions

• install: (default) Configures the packagecloud apt repository and installs the specified package.
• uninstall: Uninstalls the specified package.
• remove: Alias for uninstall
• reconfigure: Performs the ctl reconfigure command for the package.

Attributes

• package_name: (name attribute) The name of the package. Should correspond to the published package names (chef-server-core, opscode-manage, etc).
• ctl_command: The "ctl" command, e.g., chef-server-ctl. This should be automatically detected by the library helper method chef_server_ctl_command, but may need to be specified if something changes, like a new add-on is made available.
• options: Options passed to the package resource used for installation.
• master_token: Used for packagecloud private repositories.
• repository: Name of the repository where the packages are located on packagecloud. Default chef/stable.
• version: Package version, e.g., 12.0.0-rc.6-1. Default nil.
