A Vagrant plugin to install Chef cookbooks using Librarian-Chef.

Requirements

  • Vagrant version 1.2.0 or greater.

Installation

vagrant plugin install vagrant-librarian-chef

Usage

Vagrant will automatically run Librarian-Chef before any provisioning step, so simply set up your Cheffile as you normally would.

You may specify the subdirectory within which to run librarian-chef using the librarian_chef.cheffile_dir config key. Please keep in mind that you will need to explicitly set the cookbooks_path in the :chef_solo provisioner:

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|

  config.librarian_chef.cheffile_dir = "chef"

  config.vm.provision :chef_solo do |chef|
    chef.cookbooks_path = "chef/cookbooks"

    ...

  end
end

Librarian-Chef can be configured normally via configuration file at .librarian/chef/config. Again, if you change the path where cookbooks are installed by Librarian-Chef, make sure your Vagrantfile is updated to tell Vagrant's Chef provisioner where to look for them via the cookbooks_path attribute.

If you want to programmtically disable the plugin without uninstalling it, set the enabled attribute to false:

config.librarian_chef.enabled = false

Development

Vagrant 1.5.0 or greater is required.

bundle
bundle exec vagrant up

Thank you to @thegcat and other contributors for their work on vagrant-librarian, an earlier version of this functionality for Vagrant 1.0.x and the original Librarian gem with integrated Librarian-Chef.
