Description

Installs and configures unattended-upgrades Debian/Ubuntu package. This package automatically installs system security upgrades and updates package lists. It is recommended to have a MTA configured, as the logs are sent via an email.

Attributes

The default attributes hash looks like this:

node['unattended-upgrades'] = {
  'update_package_lists' => true,
  'update_packages' => true,
  'origins' => [],
  'blacklist' => [],
  'email' => 'root',
  'mail_only_on_error' => false,
  'speed_limit' => nil
}

You should overwrite origins attribute when you don't want to use default origins.

Blacklist is a list of names of packages that should not be updated.

Speed limit is the maximal download speed in KB. When you don't want a limit it should be set to nil.
