Chef SSH

Description

Provides 2 LWRPs to manage system-wide and per-user ssh_config and known_host files.

Usage

When using SSH with Chef deployments, it's crucial to not get any prompts for input. Adding entries to known_hosts files and better managing your per-connection configuration can help with this.

Resources and Providers

known_hosts

<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Action</th><th>Description</th><th>Default</th>

<tbody>
<tr>
<td>add</td>
<td>Adds an entry for the given host to a known_hosts file</td>
<td>Yes</td>
</tr>
<tr>

<tbody>
<tr>
<td>host</td>
<td>
<b>Name attribute:</b> the FQDN for a host to add to a known_hosts file
</td>
<td><code>nil</code></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>hashed</td>
<td>A Boolean indicating if SSH is configured to use a hashed known_hosts file.
</td>
<td><code>true</code></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>key</td>
<td>A full line to add to the file, instead of performing a lookup for the host.
</td>
<td><code>nil</code></td>

<tr>
<td>user</td>

must already exist.
</td>
<td><code>nil</code></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>path</td>
<td>A full path to a known_hosts file. If used with the user attribute, this will take precedence over the path to a user's file, but the file will be created (if necessary) as that user.

ssh_known_hosts "github.com" do
  hashed true
