Lisausa Knife Plugins

These are plugins for the Chef utility knife, for use by LISAUSA employees

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'lisausa-knife-plugins', github: 'lisausa/lisausa-knife-plugins'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Usage

.ssh/config

knife setup ssh

This is a plugin for Knife that helps grab all nodes within the LISA cloud and presents you with a chunk of .ssh/config that provides host name mapping. This has the bonus of allowing for tab completion, as well.

Take the given chunk of .ssh/config and copy-and-paste it into your ~/.ssh/config file.

It's also useful to add something like this, so you wont need to specify your SSH login each time:

Host *.lisausa.net
  IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa
  User rlong
