DESCRIPTION
Installs Node.js and manage npm
USAGE
Include the nodejs recipe to install node on your system based on the default installation method:
chef
include_recipe "nodejs"
Installation method can be customized with attribute node['nodejs']['install_method']
Install methods
Package
Install node from packages:
node['nodejs']['install_method'] = 'package' # Not necessary because it's the default include_recipe "nodejs" # Or include_recipe "nodejs::nodejs_from_package"
Note that only apt (Ubuntu, Debian) appears to have up to date packages available.
Centos, RHEL, etc are non-functional (try nodejs_from_binary
for those).
Binary
Install node from official prebuilt binaries:
```chef
node['nodejs']['install_method'] = 'binary'
include_recipe "nodejs"
Or
include_recipe "nodejs::nodejs_from_binary"
```
Source
Install node from sources:
```chef
node['nodejs']['install_method'] = 'source'
include_recipe "nodejs"
Or
include_recipe "nodejs::nodejs_from_source"
```
NPM
Npm is included in nodejs installs by default.
By default, we are using it and call it embedded
.
Adding recipe nodejs::npm
assure you to have npm installed and let you choose install method with node['npm']['install_method']
chef
include_recipe "nodejs::npm"
Warning: This recipe will include the nodejs
recipe, which by default includes nodejs::nodejs_from_package
if you did not set node['nodejs']['install_method']
.
LWRP
nodejs_npm
nodejs_npm
let you install npm packages from various sources:
* npm registry:
* name: attribute :package
* version: attribute :version
(optionnal)
* url: attribute :url
* for git use git://{your_repo}
* from a json (packages.json by default): attribute :json
* use true
for default
* use a String
to specify json file
Packages can be installed globally (by default) or in a directory (by using attribute :path
)
You can append more specific options to npm command with attribute :options
array :
* use an array of options (w/ dash), they will be added to npm call.
* ex: ['--production','--force']
or ['--force-latest']
This LWRP try to use npm bare as much as possible (no custom wrapper).
