INSTALL¶ ↑

sudo gem install sprinkle
git clone http://github.com/mikehale/sprinkle_chef
cd sprinkle_chef

USAGE¶ ↑

Use sprinkle to bootstrap your chef server:

rake chef:server HOST=your-chef-server

Or client:

rake chef:client HOST=your-chef-client
scp your-chef-server:/etc/chef/client.rb your-chef-client:/etc/chef/client.rb

INFO¶ ↑

The sprinkle script assumes that you can login to your servers as root without a password. You can run ‘rake add_ssh_key HOST=your-chef-host` to add your public key to root@HOST. Take a look at this article for more information on passwordless logins with ssh.
