vagrant-recipe

Vagrant plugin to execute chef recipes.

Description

Use this plugin to run your recipes at any time.

Example

➜ vagrant run-recipe SystemSetup::default

Installation

➜ vagrant plugin install vagrant-recipe

Configuration

Chef exec file and chef json config file

The root directory can be configured using Vagrantfile.

Vagrant.configure('2') do |config|
  config.vm.box = 'precise32'
  # set this value if your solo exec file is different from /tmp/vagrant-chef-1/solo.rb
  config.recipe.chef = '/tmp/vagrant-chef-1/solo.rb'

  # set this value if your json confi file is different from /tmp/vagrant-chef-1/dna.json
  config.recipe.json = '/tmp/vagrant-chef-1/dna.json'
end

➜ vagrant run-recipe SystemSetup
# is the same as
➜ vagrant ssh -c "sudo chef-solo -c /tmp/vagrant-chef-1/solo.rb -j /tmp/vagrant-chef-1/dna.json --override-runlist \"recipe[SystemSetup::default]\""

Bundler

You can enable bundler to prepend each command with bundle exec. Note that it won't be done for commands starting with bundle (e.g. bundle install).

Vagrant.configure('2') do |config|
  config.vm.box = 'precise32'
  config.recipe.bundler = true
end

➜ vagrant recipe SystemSetup
# is the same as
➜ vagrant ssh -c "cd /vagrant && bundle exec sudo chef-solo -c /tmp/vagrant-chef-1/solo.rb -j /tmp/vagrant-chef-1/dna.json --override-runlist \"recipe[SystemSetup::default]\""

Environment variables

You can add environment variables to be exported before.

Vagrant.configure('2') do |config|
  config.vm.box = 'precise32'
  config.recipe.env['RAILS_ENV'] = 'test'
  config.recipe.env['RAILS_ROOT'] = '/vagrant'
end

➜ vagrant exec SystemSetup
# is the same as
➜ vagrant ssh -c "export RAILS_ENV=test && export RAILS_ROOT=/vagrant && sudo chef-solo -c /tmp/vagrant-chef-1/solo.rb -j /tmp/vagrant-chef-1/dna.json --override-runlist \"recipe[SystemSetup::default]\""
