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.

git_user

Description

This cookbook features:

  • A Chef LWRP to configure:
    • git config.name and config.email
    • a git-specific private ssh key
    • known ssh hosts
  • A companion recipe for user::data_bag which adds the aforementioned configuration.

Usage

Include recipe[git_user] in your run_list and git_user resource will become available.

The git_user::data_bag recipe assumes that you're using the user::data_bag recipe from the excellent user cookbook. It lets you configure git-related aspects in user specific data_bags, e.g.

{
  "id"       : "testman",
  "home"     : "/home/testman"
  ...
  "git_user" : {
    "enabled"    : true,
    "full_name"  : "Test Man Jr.",
    "email"      : "testman@test.com",
    "private_key": "ABC123",
    "known_hosts": ["github.com"]
  }
}
