ruby-install Chef Cookbook
Installs ruby-install, a simple way to build Rubies and
the natural companion to chruby.
ruby-install itself is responsible for getting and
dependencies necessary for building a particular Ruby.
Requirements
Cookbooks
The following cookbook is a direct dependency because it is used for
common "default" functionality.
- ark
On RHEL family distros, the "yum" cookbook is required for obtaining
latest dependencies for building Rubies.
On Debian family distros, the "apt" cookbooks is required for obtaining
latest dependencies for building Rubies.
Platform
The following platforms are supported and tested under test kitchen.
- Ubuntu 10.04, 12.04
- CentOS 5.10, 6.5
Other Debian and RHEL family distributions are assumed to work. Other
distributions that ruby-install supports should also
work, please report any additional platforms so they can be
added.
Usage
Simply include recipe[ruby_install]
in your run_list to have
ruby-install installed. You will also have access to the
ruby_install_ruby
resource.
Recipes
default
Installs the ruby-install codebase and initializes Chef to use the
Lightweight Resources and Providers (LWRPs).
Attributes
version
The version of ruby-install that will be installed.
The default is the current latest version 0.3.4
checksum
sha256 checksum of the version to be installed, used for security.
The default is a checksum that matches up with the latest ruby-install.
default_ruby_base_path
The default base path for installed Rubies. For example the following
resource:
ruby_install_ruby 'ruby 2.0.0-p247'
will be installed into
"#{node['ruby_install']['default_ruby_base_path']}/ruby-2.0.0-p247"
The default is "/opt/rubies"
.
If you are using ruby-install alongside chruby it expects, by
default, to find Rubies in /opt/rubies
or ~/.rubies
.

Contributing
Pull requests are very welcome! Ideally create a topic branch for every
separate change you make.
This cookbook uses [ChefSpec][chefspec] for unit tests. I also use Fodd
Critic and RuboCop to check for style issues.
When contributing it would be very helpful if you could run these via
bundle exec spec
and bundle exec style
.
Lastly, there are Serverspec integration tests for use
with Test Kitchen. At the very least the installation
integration tests should be run, you can ignore the EC2 one if you don't
have an AWS account (which you will get billed for). The allrubies tests
often fail due to a particular Ruby failing to build on an OS, this is
not necessarily an issue with this cookbook though so can safely be
ignored. To see all of the available integration test suites just check
bundle exec rake T
or bundle exec kitchen list
