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.

Actions

create

Creates a new hosts file entry. If an entry already exists, it will be overwritten by this one.

hostsfile_entry '1.2.3.4' do
  hostname 'example.com'
  action :create
end

This will create an entry like this:

1.2.3.4          example.com

create_if_missing

Create a new hosts file entry, only if one does not already exist for the given IP address. If one exists, this does nothing.

hostsfile_entry '1.2.3.4' do
  hostname 'example.com'
  action :create_if_missing
end

update

Updates the given hosts file entry. Does nothing if the entry does not exist.

hostsfile_entry '1.2.3.4' do
  hostname 'example.com'
  comment 'Update by Chef'
  action :update
end

This will create an entry like this:

1.2.3.4           example # Updated by Chef

remove

Removes an entry from the hosts file. Does nothing if the entry does not
exist.

hostsfile_entry '1.2.3.4' do
  action :remove
end

This will remove the entry for 1.2.3.4.
