Resources

Workstation

The codenamephp_chef_workstation installs the chef-workstation package from the apt repository. The repository is added automatically.

Actions

• install: Installs the resource

Properties

• puge_chefdk: Boolean to purge the chefdk (old package) prior to installing, defaults to false

Examples

# Minimal properties
recipe do
  codenamephp_chef_workstation 'Install chef-workstation'
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
