This cookbook installs Google Chrome browser (https://www.google.com/chrome/) at compile time, provides
chrome_version library method to retrieve Chrome version installed, and provides master_preferences and chrome_policy resources
to set user preferences and policies.

This project is a part of Cooking Robot group. It's a fork of a great project: https://github.com/dhoer/chef-chrome.

Requirements

Chef 12.14+

Platforms

  • CentOS 7, Red Hat 7, Fedora
  • Debian, Ubuntu
  • Mac OS X
  • Windows

Recipes

  • dmg - used by Mac OS X platform
  • apt - used by Debian familiy
  • msi - used by Windows family
  • yum - used by RedHat Family
  • default - Call another recipe for current OS

Usage

Include the default recipe on a node's runlist to ensure that Chrome is installed.

A library method chrome_version is provided to retrieve the Chrome version installed:

v = chrome_version

Tip: use allow_any_instance_of to stub chrome_version method when testing with rspec:

allow_any_instance_of(Chef::Recipe).to receive(:chrome_version).and_return('50.0.0.0')

Attributes

  • node['chrome']['track'] - For Linux only. Install stable, beta or unstable version. Default is stable.
  • node['chrome']['32bit_only'] - For windows only. Install 32-bit browser on 64-bit machines. Default is false.

See attributes/default.rb for complete list
of attributes.

chrome_policy

Manage chrome policies for administrators.
More info...

Resource Attributes

  • name - The name of the policy
  • value - Value of the policy

Actions

Action can be :managed or :recommanded. Managed policy is enforced. Recommanded policy is set by default but
the user can change theses policies.

Exemples

The following resource configure the home page. See Chrome documentation.

chrome_policy 'HomepageLocation' do
  value 'https://mycompany.com/'
end

master_preferences

Manage a template resource that configures master_preferences.
More info...

Resource Attributes

  • name - The name of the preference.
  • cookbook - Optional. Cookbook where the source template is. If this is not defined, Chef will use the named template in the cookbook where the definition is used.
  • template - Default master_preferences.json.erb, source template file.
  • parameters - Additional parameters, see Examples.

Examples

The following example would look for a template named master_preferences.json.erb in your cookbook:

chrome 'custom_preferences' do
  parameters(
    homepage: 'https://mycompany.com/'
    import_bookmarks_from_file: 'c:\path\to\bookmarks.html'
  )
  action :master_preferences
end

The Chrome cookbook comes with a master_preferences.json.erb template as an example. The following parameter is used
in the template:

  • homepage - Sets the homepage URL.

To use the default template preferences, set cookbook to chrome, for example:

chrome 'set_user_preferences' do
  cookbook 'chrome'
  parameters(
    homepage: 'https://www.getchef.com'
  )
  action :master_preferences
end

The parameter specified will be used as:

  • @parameters[:homepage]

In the template, when you write your own, the @ is significant.

ChefSpec Matchers

This cookbook includes custom ChefSpec matchers you can use to test your
own cookbooks.

Example Matcher Usage

expect(chef_run).to master_preferences_chrome('name').with(
  parameters: {
    homepage: 'https://www.getchef.com'
  }
)

Cookbook Matchers

  • master_preferences_chrome(name)
