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.

Samhain Cookbook

Cookbook Version
Build Status
Code Climate
Coverage Status

Installs and configures Samhain for host integrity monitoring.

Requirements

This cookbook currently supports Ubuntu only and is actively tested against
15.04, 14.04, and 12.04 while also attempting to maintain (untested)
compatibility with 10.04. The hope is to support other platforms as well in
the future.

Assorted older Chef and Ruby conventions are intentionally used to (for now)
maintain compatibility with Chef 11.

Usage

Include samhain in your node's run_list:

{
  "run_list": [
    "recipe[samhain::default]"
  ]
}

Recipes

default

Do a simple, attribute-based install of Samhain.

Attributes

default

The attributes in attributes/default.rb are for the basic configuration of
Samhain. They write to a file at /etc/samhain/samhainrc The config is written
at run time and can be extended from any book by adding attributes. Since the
samhainrc is not a perfect hash, the syntax for adding attributes is a bit
different.

To overwrite regular attributes:

    ['samhain']['config']['Misc']['bacon'] = 'Applewood Smoked'

To add files or directories for monitoring:

    ['samhain']['config']['LogFiles']['file']['path/to/my/file'] = true

Usage

The intent of the attributes file is to allow
service owners to add files to the Samhain watchlist.
For more information on Samhain, see their docs at
Samhain Labs
