Dropbox Cookbook

Cookbook Version OS X Build Status Windows Build Status Code Climate Coverage Status

A Chef cookbook for installing the Dropbox application.

Requirements

This cookbook currently requires an OS X or Windows node. While Dropbox does distribute packages for Linux, they are kept in a different download area with a different API than the OS X and Windows packages.

It consumes the dmg and windows cookbooks to support OS X and Windows installs.

Usage

Resources can be called directly, or the main recipe that uses those resources can be added to your run_list.

Note that this cookbook only installs the Dropbox application. A username and password will still have to be entered in the UI the first time the application is started.

Recipes

default

Calls the dropbox resource to do a package install.

Attributes

default

A custom package URL can be provided.

default['dropbox']['package_url'] = nil

Resources
