Supermarket Belongs to the Community

Supermarket belongs to the community. While Chef has the responsibility to keep it running and be stewards of its functionality, what it does and how it works is driven by the community. The chef/supermarket repository will continue to be where development of the Supermarket application takes place.

Database Cookbook

Build Status
Cookbook Version

The main highlight of this cookbook is the database and
database_user resources for managing databases and database users in
a RDBMS. Providers for MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQL Server are also
provided, see usage documentation below.

Requirements

Platforms

  • Debian / Ubuntu derivatives
  • RHEL derivatives
  • Fedora

Chef

  • Chef 11+

Cookbooks

  • postgresql

Resources/Providers

These resources aim to expose an abstraction layer for interacting
with different RDBMS in a general way. Currently the cookbook ships
with providers for MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQL Server. Please see
specific usage in the Example sections below. The providers use
specific Ruby gems installed under Chef's Ruby environment to execute
commands and carry out actions. These gems will need to be installed
before the providers can operate correctly. Specific notes for each
RDBS flavor:

  • MySQL: leverages the mysql2 gem, which can be installed with the
    mysql2_chef_gem resource prior to use (available on the
    Supermarket). You must depend on the mysql2_chef_gem cookbook,
    then use a mysql2_chef_gem resource to install it. The resource
    allows the user to select MySQL client library versions, as well as
    optionally select MariaDB libraries.

  • PostgreSQL: leverages the pg gem which is installed as part of the
    postgresql::ruby recipe. You must declare include_recipe
    "database::postgresql"
    to include this.

  • SQL Server: leverages the tiny_tds gem which is installed as part
    of the sql_server::client recipe.

  • SQLite: leverages the sqlite3 gem which is installed as part of the
    database::sqlite recipe. You must declare include_recipe
    "database::sqlite"
    to include this.

database

Manage databases in a RDBMS. Use the proper shortcut resource
depending on your RDBMS: mysql_database, postgresql_database,
sql_server_database or sqlite_database.

Actions

  • :create: create a named database
  • :drop: drop a named database
  • :query: execute an arbitrary query against a named database

Attribute Parameters

  • database_name: name attribute. Name of the database to interact with
  • connection: hash of connection info. valid keys include :host,
    :port, :username, and :password

    • only for MySQL DB*: :flags (see Mysql2::Client@@default_query_options[:connect_flags])
    • only for PostgreSQL: :database (overwrites parameter database_name)
    • not used for SQLlite
  • sql: string of sql or a block that executes to a string of sql,
    which will be executed against the database. used by :query action
    only

* The database cookbook uses the mysql2 gem.

"The value of host may be either a host name or an IP address. If
host is NULL or the string "127.0.0.1", a connection to the local
host is assumed. For Windows, the client connects using a
shared-memory connection, if the server has shared-memory
connections enabled. Otherwise, TCP/IP is used. For a host value of
"." on Windows, the client connects using a named pipe, if the
server has named-pipe connections enabled. If named-pipe connections
are not enabled, an error occurs."

If you specify a :socket key and are using the mysql_service
resource to set up the MySQL service, you'll need to specify the path
in the form /var/run/mysql-<instance name>/mysqld.sock.

Providers

  • Chef::Provider::Database::Mysql: shortcut resource mysql_database
  • Chef::Provider::Database::Postgresql: shortcut resource postgresql_database
  • Chef::Provider::Database::SqlServer: shortcut resource sql_server_database
  • Chef::Provider::Database::Sqlite: shortcut resource sqlite_database
