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.

Recipes

default

Installs the varnish package, manages the default varnish configuration file, and the init script defaults file.

repo

If placed before the default recipe in the run list, the official Varnish project apt repository will offer access to more version and platform support.

Usage

On systems that need a high performance caching server, use recipe[varnish]. Additional configuration can be done by modifying the default.vcl.erb and default.erb templates.

If running on a Redhat derivative then you may need to include yum-epel as it provides the jemalloc dependency that varnish needs
