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.

yumgroup Cookbook

A LWRP to install yum packages based on yum groups. This is a stop gap measure while we wait for CHEF-1392, since I have an itch to scratch right now (heck maybe this morphs into the solution for that ticket?)

Requirements

platforms

Any platform that supports installing packages via yum using yum groups.

NOTE: Fedora 18 will work with the :install and :upgrade actions, however the :remove action may be flaky, and attempt to delete everything in the dependency tree (regardless of the value of the groupremove_leaf_only setting!)

Usage

yumgroup::default

Just include the yumgroup recipe in your cookbook to get access to the LWRP:

include_recipe 'yumgroup'

yumgroup 'Web Server' do
  action :install
end

The yumgroup lwrp provides 2 additional attributes that can be set to control its behavior:

  • flush_cache - Update the yum metadata cache before or after the yum action (similar to the yum_package resource)
  • cache_error_fatal - Make updates of the metadata cache fatal (by default they are not)
