Note about MySQL option
Creating a local MySQL server/database is outside the scope of this cookbook. I am assuming if you are using the mysql
option for node['ghost-blog']['app']['db_type']
that
you already have a MySQL elsewhere such as AWS RDS or on another server. You could always wrap this cookbook and create your own MySQL instance.
