Description

Installs and configures a Nats
server for use with CloudFoundry.

This cookbook will install a Nats Server on the target node along with
the necessary configuration files and init scripts to run it. Because
Nats is used so heavily by CloudFoundry, this cookbook relies on the
cloudfoundry cookbook for common functionality.
