Overview

Policyfile is an experimental policy builder implementation that gets run list and cookbook version information from a single document.

WARNING

This implementation is experimental. It may be changed in incompatible ways in minor or even patch releases, or even abandoned altogether. If using this with other tools, you may be forced to upgrade those tools in lockstep with chef-client because of incompatible behavior changes.

Unsupported Options:

  • override_runlist

    This could potentially be integrated into the

policyfile, or replaced with a similar feature that has different semantics.

  • specific_recipes

    put more design thought into this use case.

  • run_list in json_attribs

    would be ignored anyway, so it raises an error.

  • chef-solo

    not currently supported. Need more design thought around

how this should work.

Builds a ‘cookbook_hash’ map of the form

"COOKBOOK_NAME" => "IDENTIFIER"

This can be passed to a Chef::CookbookSynchronizer object to synchronize the cookbooks.

TODO: Currently this makes N API calls to the server to get the cookbook objects. With server support (bulk API or the like), this should be reduced to a single call.

Selects the ‘policy_name` and `policy_group` from the following sources in priority order:

  1. JSON attribs (i.e., ‘-j JSON_FILE`)

  2. ‘Chef::Config`

  3. The node object

The selected values are then copied to ‘Chef::Config` and the node.
