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. Come be part of shaping the direction of Supermarket by opening issues and pull requests or by joining us on the Chef Mailing List.

hostname cookbook

Description

Sets hostname and FQDN of the node. The latest code is hosted at
https://github.com/3ofcoins/chef-cookbook-hostname

Important

Setting hostname on FQDN is not (and won't be) supported. Unfortunately, using dots in the hostname can cause
inconsistent results for any system that consumes DNS
and is not allowed by RFC952. If a user
needs additional info in their shell prompt, they can change PS1 in etc/profile
to include the FQDN together with any information they find useful (such as
the customer, the environment, etc).

Attributes

  • node['set_fqdn'] - FQDN to set.

The asterisk character will be replaced with node.name. This way,
you can add this to base role:

default_attributes :set_fqdn => '*.project-domain.com'

and have node set its FQDN and hostname based on its chef node name
(which is provided on chef-client first run's command line).

  • node['hostname_cookbook']['hostsfile_ip'] -- IP used in /etc/hosts to correctly set FQDN (default: 127.0.1.1)

Recipes

  • hostname::default -- will set node's FQDN to value of set_fqdn attribute, and hostname to its host part (up to first dot).
  • hostname::vmware -- sets hostname automatically using vmtoolsd. You do not need to set node["set_fqdn"].
