Attributes

See attributes/default.rb for default values. The attributes are used in the server recipe.

• node['subversion']['repo_dir'] - filesystem location of the repository to serve.

• node['subversion']['repo_name'] - name of the repository to serve up.

• node['subversion']['server_name'] - server name used in the svn vhost.

• node['subversion']['user'] - user to log into the svn vhost.

• node['subversion']['password'] - htpasswd for the subversion user in the server recipe. This should be overridden as the default is not secure.

• node['subversion']['list_parent_path'] - a choice of "on" or "off". When set to "on" the list of repositories in the node['subversion']['repo_dir'] will be indexed at http://

  <server_name>/svn. Default is "off"</server_name>

Recipes

default

Includes recipe[subversion::client].

client

Installs subversion packages.

server

Sets up an SVN repository server with recipe[apache2::mod_dav_svn]. This will use the web_app definition from the apache cookbook to drop off the template, and uses the attributes for configuration.

Usage

On nodes where subversion should be installed such as application servers that will check out a repository, use recipe[subversion]. If you would like a subversion server, use recipe[subversion::server]. You should override node['subversion']['password'] in the role that applies the server recipe.
