Chefdore
Chefdore is a Chef tool that was named after Dumbledore.
I created this gem in order to help those who may want to convert Chef Roles to Chef Cookbooks.
Installation
$ gem install chefdore
Usage
Let's say you have a Chef Role in your Chef Server and you want to convert it to a Chef Cookbook.
First let's take a look at an "example_role":
$ knife role show example_role --format json
{
"name": "example_role",
"description": "Chef-server example role",
"json_class": "Chef::Role",
"default_attributes": {
"ntp": {
"servers": [
"0.pool.ntp.org",
"1.pool.ntp.org",
"2.pool.ntp.org",
"3.pool.ntp.org"
]
}
},
"override_attributes": {
"developer_mode": false,
"monitoring": {
"metric_provider": "collectd",
"procmon_provider": "monit"
},
"glance": {
"image_upload": true,
"images": [
"cirros",
"precise"
]
},
"nova": {
"ratelimit": {
"api": {
"enabled": true
},
"volume": {
"enabled": true
}
},
"libvirt": {
"virt_type": "qemu"
},
"networks": {
"public": {
"label": "public",
"ipv4_cidr": "10.10.100.0/24",
"bridge": "br100",
"bridge_dev": "eth0.100",
"dns1": "8.8.8.8",
"dns2": "8.8.4.4"
},
"private": {
"label": "private",
"ipv4_cidr": "172.16.101.0/24",
"bridge": "br101",
"bridge_dev": "eth0.101",
"dns1": "8.8.8.8",
"dns2": "8.8.4.4"
}
}
},
"mysql": {
"allow_remote_root": true,
"root_network_acl": "%"
},
"osops_networks": {
"nova": "192.168.1.0/24",
"public": "192.168.1.0/24",
"management": "192.168.1.0/24"
},
"package_component": "folsom"
},
"chef_type": "role",
"run_list": [
"recipe[osops-utils::packages]",
"recipe[osops-utils::nf_conntrack_max]",
"recipe[osops-utils::vhost_net]",
"recipe[openssh]",
"recipe[ntp]",
"recipe[rsyslog::default]",
"recipe[hardware]",
"recipe[osops-utils::version]"
],
"env_run_lists": {
}
}All we have to do is pipe that output into our little command line client:
$ knife role show example_role --format json | chefdore convert
## Place the following in your cookbook in attributes/default.rb
default["ntp"]["servers"] = ["0.pool.ntp.org", "1.pool.ntp.org", "2.pool.ntp.org", "3.pool.ntp.org"]

override["osops_networks"]["management"] = "192.168.1.0/24"
override["package_component"] = "folsom"
## Place the following in your cookbook in recipes/default.rb
include_recipe "osops-utils::packages"
include_recipe "osops-utils::nf_conntrack_max"
include_recipe "osops-utils::vhost_net"
include_recipe "openssh"
include_recipe "ntp"
include_recipe "rsyslog::default"
include_recipe "hardware"
include_recipe "osops-utils::version"It outputs exactly what should be dropped into your new Chef Cookbook attributes file.
e.g. attributes/default.rb
