Reshipi

Simple Chef Solo recipe server for Vagrant

Features

• Manage collections of Chef recipes (only Git repos for now)
• Use the Chef Solo recipe_url option to get at 'em

Requirements

• PHP 5.3.3+
• MySQL 5.1+
• Apache2+

Installation

Reshipi is a Symfony 2 app, so once you've cloned the repo, change to the root of the directory and create your parameters.yml config file. You will need to change the database and auth_user parameters to suit your setup.

$ cp app/config/parameters.yml.dist app/config/parameters.yml
$ vim app/config/parameters.yml

Next, create a data directory and make sure it and the app/cache and app/logs directories are writable by your web server.

$ mkdir data
$ chmod -R 777 data        #
$ chmod -R 777 app/cache   # not very secure, but it works
$ chmod -R 777 app/logs    #

Then, make sure you have Composer available and get the app ready to run.

$ composer install
$ php app/console doctrine:database:create
$ php app/console doctrine:schema:create
$ php app/console assets:install web

The app should be ready where you've just installed it.

Usage

Create a Collection

1. From the start-page, use the "Create Collection" form to create a collection
2. Once created, follow the collection name to a page that lists all recipes for that collection
3. Use the "Add Recipe" form to add a recipe to the collection (only Git repos are supported for now)

Configure Vagrant

1. Copy the "Archive URL" link for the collection on the start-page
2. Set the chef.recipe_url option to use the URL you've just copied
3. vagrant up and the recipes will be used for provisioning
