Chef is a systems management framework masquerading as a configuration management tool.
I’m in ur netwerk, cookin up yer servers. :)
chef:
-
ruby-openid
-
json
-
erubis
-
extlib
-
stomp
-
ohai
chef-server and the chefserverslice (merb slice), same requires as chef above, plus:
-
stompserver
-
ferret
-
merb-core
-
merb-haml
-
mongrel
-
haml
-
ruby-openid
-
syntax
Interim Note:
Once the {chef,chef-server,chefserverslice}.gem set is installed, do the following:
> cd /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/chef-server<xxx> # or wherever your gems land > sudo rake slices:chefserverslice:install
This installs the chefserverslice into the chef-server merb application
External Servers:
-
stompserver (for easy stomp mq testing)
-
CouchDB
Install all of the above. To fire up a develpment environment, do the following:
* Start CouchDB with 'couchdb'
* Start stompserver with 'stompserver'
* Start chef-indexer with:
chef-indexer -l debug
* Start chef-server:
chef-server -N -c 2
* Test run chef to begin node registration:
sudo ./bin/chef-client
* Validate the node registration:
Visit http://localhost:4000
Login, enter an openid URL (see http://openid.net/get/)
Registrations, click Validate
* Test run chef with:
chef-client
