Patissier

Patissier is a set of tool to ease the provisioning of a Raspberry. Why patissier? Because chef will cook the Raspberry!

Here is written the goal of this repo, it is now in dev mode.

Scenarios:

• choose a set of recipes to apply to your RasPi (based on a text file 1st and then thou a web interface)
• you want to recook your RasPi
• update your recipe
• cook from scratch
• Create a base RaspChef SD card

How?

Triple partition scheme

• A boot partition that contain the bios feature - We call this partition boot
• A base partition with a chef installed - We call this partition RaspChef
• An other partition that we will cook - We call this partition CookedPartition

Dual boot

Based on a bash script, we have the possibility to switch from one partition to another one.

Partitions comunicate together

With a simple Berksfile placed in the boot, the 2 partitions can communicate together.

To Do

• Bash script boot_partition
• Take 1 argument : the partition to boot for the next reboot
• Do the tests with Bats : https://github.com/sstephenson/bats
• script : prepare_partition (with a chef recipe?)
• This script will prepare the partiion
• Debootstrap
• Install chef and the basics
• script : cook_partition
• 1 argument : Berksfile
• Aplly all the recipe from this Berksfile to the new partition in chroot
• [ ]script : pastry-chef
• The script that will start at boot of the RaspChef
• Chek if it has to cook (thou a comment in the Berksfile?)
• If yes, launch cook_partition, then boot_partition and reboot in CookedPartition
• If not, launch boot_partition and reboot in CookedPartition
