locale cookbook
Sets the default system locale for this system. You can see which locales are available by running locale -a.
On Debian based systems, this recipe sets the locale by running update-locale and on Fedora, it uses localectl.
On RHEL based systems, the recipe operates on the /etc/sysconfig/i18n file directly because there is no standard command line tool to change the system locale settings.
Requirements
Platforms
- Debian/Ubuntu
- RHEL or derivatives
- Fedora
Chef
- Chef 12.1+
Cookbooks
- none
Attributes
-
node['locale']['lang']-- the value for "LANG": defaults to "en_US.utf8" -
node['locale']['lc_all']-- the value for "LC_ALL": defaults to "en_US.utf8"
Note that you cannot set "LC_ALL" on Fedora. It is a documented limitation; see "man 5 locale.conf". So this recipe simply ignores LC_ALL for Fedora.
Usage
Include the default recipe in your run list.
