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.

Usage

Cacti Server Required Data Bag

Create a cacti/server encrypted data bag with the following information per Chef environment:

required:
* ['admin']['password'] - local administrator password
* ['database']['host'] - FQDN or "localhost" (localhost automatically installs/configures database)
* ['database']['name'] - Name of Cacti database
* ['database']['user'] - Cacti database username
* ['database']['password'] - Cacti database username password

optional:
* ['database']['port'] - Database port, defaults to 3306

Repeat for other Chef environments as necessary. Example:

{
  "id": "server",
  "development": {
    "admin": {
      "password": "cacti_admin_password"
    },
    "database": {
      "host": "localhost",
      "name": "cacti",
      "user": "cacti",
      "password": "cacti_db_password"
    }
  }
}
