What is ?! Chef
1 Manage servers with ruby code
instead of $ ssh root@app1 Last login: Thu Feb 28
... # apt-get install nginx ... # vim /etc/nginx/nginx.conf ... # apt-get install ruby ...
client server
# node # node # node # chef server (server1
to server3.example.com) (chef.example.com) knife ! (local machine)
# node # node # node # chef server (server1
to server3.example.com) (chef.example.com) knife ! (local machine)
# node # node # node # chef server (server1
to server3.example.com) (chef.example.com) knife ! (local machine)
# node # node # node # chef server chef-client
(server1 to server3.example.com) knife ! (local machine)
2terminology Chef
2recipe Ruby file that contains Chef commands
2cookbook Collection of Chef recipes
Getting started with Chef 2
git clone opscode/chef-repo https://github.com/opscode/chef-repo !
! $ ls confoo ... cookbooks/ data_bags/ environments/ roles/
Install Chef on local machine !
! gem install chef
# Hosted* Chef server from Opscode * free up to
5 nodes
#
#
Setup Knife on local machine !
# node # node # node # chef server (server1
to server3.example.com) (chef.example.com) knife ! (local machine)
! $ ls confoo/.chef confoo-demo-validator.pem confoo-demo.pem knife.rb Copy files to
REPO/.chef
! $ cd confoo $ knife user list confoo-demo Test
Knife
8 Create your first cookbook $ cd confoo $ knife
cookbook create nginx
8 $ ls cookbooks/nginx ... attributes/ providers/ recipes/ resources/ templates/
package "nginx" cookbooks/nginx/recipes/default.rb
package installs using system’s package mgr
cookbooks/nginx/recipes/default.rb package "nginx" service "nginx"
service defines an available service
cookbooks/nginx/recipes/default.rb package "nginx" service "nginx" do supports :status => true,
:restart => true, :reload => true end
cookbooks/nginx/recipes/default.rb package "nginx" service "nginx" do supports :status => true,
:restart => true, :reload => true action [:enable, :start] end
:enable start on server boot
:start start when Chef runs
8 Upload cookbook $ knife cookbook upload nginx Uploading nginx
[0.1.0]
Let’s test it on a node #
! $ knife bootstrap \ server1.example.com Bootstrap a node
!
2run list Ordered list of recipes and roles that get
run on the node
! $ knife node edit \ server1.example.com Edit a node
{ "name": "server1.example.com", "run_list": [ ] }
{ "name": "server1.example.com", "run_list": [ "recipe[nginx::default]" ] }
recipe[nginx::default] means default recipe of nginx cookbook
$ ssh server1.example.com server1:~# chef-client Run Chef on the node
#
#
#
# Let’s configure nginx
copy from server to nginx cookbook templates/default/nginx.conf.erb /etc/nginx/nginx.conf !
cookbooks/nginx/recipes/default.rb package "nginx" service "nginx" do supports :status => true,
:restart => true, :reload => true action [:enable, :start] end template "/etc/nginx/nginx.conf" do source "nginx.conf.erb" notifies :reload, "service[nginx]" end
cookbooks/nginx/recipes/default.rb package "nginx" service "nginx" do supports :status => true,
:restart => true, :reload => true action [:enable, :start] end template "/etc/nginx/nginx.conf" do source "nginx.conf.erb" notifies :reload, "service[nginx]" end
cookbooks/nginx/recipes/default.rb package "nginx" service "nginx" do supports :status => true,
:restart => true, :reload => true action [:enable, :start] end template "/etc/nginx/nginx.conf" do source "nginx.conf.erb" notifies :reload, "service[nginx]" end
cookbooks/nginx/recipes/default.rb package "nginx" service "nginx" do supports :status => true,
:restart => true, :reload => true action [:enable, :start] end template "/etc/nginx/nginx.conf" do source "nginx.conf.erb" notifies :reload, "service[nginx]" end
! Upload the cookbook and run chef-client on node
#
2 Chef is idempotent
! What if we edit templates/default/nginx.conf.erb and run Chef
#
#
#
Let’s run Chef one more time #
#
2Attributes
nginx/templates/default/nginx.conf.erb user www-data; worker_processes 2; pid /var/run/nginx.pid; ...
nginx/attributes/nginx.rb default['nginx']['worker_processes'] = 2
nginx/templates/default/nginx.conf.erb user www-data; worker_processes <%= node['nginx'] ['worker_processes'] %>; pid /var/run/nginx.pid;
...
# Override for a specific node
{ "name": "server1.example.com", "run_list": [ "recipe[nginx::default]" ] }
{ "name": "server1.example.com", "normal": { "nginx": { "worker_processes": 4 },
}, "run_list": [ "recipe[nginx::default]" ] }
2Roles
roles/app-server.rb name 'app-server' description 'app-server stuff' run_list( 'recipe[nginx::default]' ) override_attributes(
'nginx' => { 'worker_processes' => 2 } )
! $ knife role from file \ app-server.rb Upload a
role
Apply the role on a node #
{ "name": "server1.example.com", "run_list": [ "role[app-server]" ] }
#
{ "name": "server1.example.com", "run_list": [ "role[base]", "role[app-server]" ] }
2 Environments
environments/production.rb name 'production' cookbook_versions 'nginx' => '= 0.1.0'
{ "name": "server1.example.com", "chef_environment": "production", "run_list": [ "recipe[nginx::default]" ] }
! Searching for nodes $ knife search node \ role:app-server
2
8 Searching can be done in recipes too!
