+.SH "NAME"
+\fBknife\fR \- Chef Server REST API utility
+.
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+\fBknife\fR \fIsub\-command\fR \fI(options)\fR
+.
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+This manual page documents knife, a command\-line utility used to interact with a Chef server directly through the RESTful API\. Knife uses sub\-commands to take various actions on different types of Chef objects\. Some sub\-commands take additional options\. General options follow sub\-commands and their options\. A configuration file can be created for common defaults\.
+.
+.P
+Unless otherwise specified, output is in JSON format, and input files are also JSON format\.
+.
+.P
+The Chef class \fBChef::Config\fR that configures the behavior of how knife runs has options that correspond to command\-line options\. These are noted as \fBChef::Config\fR values\.

+.
+.SH "SUB\-COMMANDS"
+Knife sub\-commands are structured as \fINOUN verb NOUN (options)\fR\. The sub\-commands are meant to be intuitively named\. Because the Chef Server API is RESTful, sub\-commands generally utilize CRUD operations\.
+.
+.IP "\(bu" 4
+create (create)
+.
+.IP "\(bu" 4
+list and show (read)
+.
+.IP "\(bu" 4
+edit (update)
+.

+.
+.IP "" 0
+.
+.P
+Objects stored on the server support these, as described below\.
+.
+.SH "GENERAL SUB\-COMMANDS"
+The following are general sub\-commands that do not fit within the other object types utilized in the Chef Server API\.

+.
+.P
+\fBssh QUERY COMMAND\fR \fI(options)\fR
+.
+.TP

+.P
+The \fIssh\fR sub\-command opens an ssh session to each of the nodes in the search results of the \fIQUERY\fR\. This sub\-command requires that the net\-ssh\-multi and highline Ruby libraries are installed\. On Debian systems, these are the libnet\-ssh\-multi\-ruby and libhighline\-ruby packages\. They can also be installed as RubyGems (net\-ssh\-multi and highline, respectively)\.

+\fB\-x\fR, \fB\-\-ssh\-user USERNAME\fR
+The ssh username
+.
+.TP
+\fB\-\-template\-file TEMPLATE\fR
+Full path to location of template to use
+.
+.TP
+\fB\-\-sudo\fR
+Execute the bootstrap via sudo
+.
+.TP
+\fB\-d\fR, \fB\-\-distro DISTRO\fR
+Bootstrap a distro using a template
+.
+.P
+Performs a Chef Bootstrap on the target node\. The goal of the bootstrap is to get Chef installed on the target system so it can run Chef Client with a Chef Server\. The main assumption is a baseline OS installation exists\. This sub\-command is used internally by some cloud computing server create commands and the others will be migrated in a future version of Chef\.
+.
+.P
+As of Chef 0\.9\.8, the bootstrap sub\-command supports supplying a template to perform the bootstrap steps\. If the distro is not specified (via \fB\-d\fR or \fB\-\-distro\fR option), an Ubuntu 10\.04 with RubyGems is assumed\. The \fBDISTRO\fR value corresponds to the base filename of the template, in other words \fBDISTRO\fR\.erb\. A template file can be specified with the \fB\-\-template\-file\fR option in which case the \fBDISTRO\fR is not used\. The sub\-command looks in the following locations for the template to use:
+.
+.IP "\(bu" 4
+\fBbootstrap\fR directory in the installed Chef Knife library\.
+.
+.IP "\(bu" 4
+\fBbootstrap\fR directory in the \fB$PWD/\.chef\fR\.
+.
+.IP "\(bu" 4
+\fBbootstrap\fR directory in the users \fB$HOME/\.chef\fR\.
+.
+.IP "" 0
+.
+.P
+The default bootstrap templates are scripts that get copied to the target node (FQDN)\. As of Chef 0\.9\.8, the following distros are supported:
+.
+.IP "\(bu" 4
+centos5\-gems
+.
+.IP "\(bu" 4
+fedora13\-gems
+.
+.IP "\(bu" 4
+ubuntu10\.04\-gems
+.
+.IP "\(bu" 4
+ubuntu10\.04\-apt
+.
+.IP "" 0
+.
+.P
+The gems installations will use RubyGems 1\.3\.6 and Chef installed as a gem\. The apt installation will use the Opscode APT repository\. The RubyGems installation requires installing gems with native extensions, so development related packages (ruby\-dev, build\-essential) are installed\. These are not installed with the apt installation, as native extensions are already compiled in the required packages\.
+.
+.P
+In addition to handling the software installation, these bootstrap templates do the following:
+.
+.IP "\(bu" 4
+Write the validation\.pem per the local knife configuration\.
+.
+.IP "\(bu" 4
+Write a default config file for Chef (\fB/etc/chef/client\.rb\fR) using values from the \fBknife\.rb\fR\.
+.
+.IP "\(bu" 4
+Create a JSON attributes file containing the specified run list and run Chef\.
+.
+.IP "" 0
+.
+.P
+In the case of the RubyGems, the \fBclient\.rb\fR will be written from scratch with a minimal set of values; see \fBEXAMPLES\fR\. In the case of APT Package installation, \fBclient\.rb\fR will have the \fBvalidation_client_name\fR appended if it is not set to \fBchef\-validator\fR (default config value), and the \fBnode_name\fR will be added if \fBchef_node_name\fR option is specified\.
+.
+.P
+When this is complete, the bootstrapped node will have:
+.
+.IP "\(bu" 4
+Latest Chef version installed from RubyGems or APT Packages from Opscode\. This may be a later version than the local system\.
+.
+.IP "\(bu" 4
+Be validated with the configured Chef Server\.
+.
+.IP "\(bu" 4
+Have run Chef with its default run list if one is specfied\.
+.
+.IP "" 0
+.
+.P
+Additional custom bootstrap templates can be created and stored in \fB\.chef/bootstrap/DISTRO\.erb\fR, replacing \fBDISTRO\fR with the value passed with the \fB\-d\fR or \fB\-\-distro\fR option\. See \fBEXAMPLES\fR for more information\.
+.
+.SH "CLIENT SUB\-COMMANDS"
+Clients are entities that communicate with the Chef Server API\.
+.
+.P
+\fBclient bulk delete REGEX\fR \fI(options)\fR
+.
+.P
+Delete clients on the Chef Server based on a regular expression\. The regular expression (\fIREGEX\fR) should be in quotes, not in //\'s\.
+.
+.P
+\fBclient create CLIENT\fR \fI(options)\fR
+.
+.TP
+\fB\-a\fR, \fB\-\-admin\fR
+Create the client as an admin
+.
+.TP
+\fB\-f\fR, \fB\-\-file FILE\fR
+Write the key to a file
+.
+.P
+Create a new client\. This generates an RSA keypair\. The private key will be displayed on \fISTDOUT\fR or written to the named file\. The public half will be stored on the Server\. For \fIchef\-client\fR systems, the private key should be copied to the system as \fB/etc/chef/client\.pem\fR\.
+.
+.P
+Admin clients should be created for users that will use \fIknife\fR to access the API as an administrator\. The private key will generally be copied to \fB~/\.chef/CLIENT\.pem\fR and referenced in the \fBknife\.rb\fR configuration file\.
+.
+.P
+\fBclient delete CLIENT\fR \fI(options)\fR
+.
+.P
+Deletes a registered client\.
+.
+.P
+\fBclient edit CLIENT\fR \fI(options)\fR
+.
+.P
+Edit a registered client\.
+.
+.P
+\fBclient list\fR \fI(options)\fR
+.
+.TP
+\fB\-w\fR, \fB\-\-with\-uri\fR
+Show corresponding URIs
+.
+.P
+List all registered clients\.
+.
+.P
+\fBclient reregister CLIENT\fR \fI(options)\fR
+.
+.TP
+\fB\-f\fR, \fB\-\-file FILE\fR
+Write the key to a file
+.
+.P
+Regenerate the RSA keypair for a client\. The public half will be stored on the server and the private key displayed on \fISTDOUT\fR or written to the named file\.
+.
+.P
+\fBclient show CLIENT\fR \fI(options)\fR
+.
+.TP
+\fB\-a\fR, \fB\-\-attribute ATTR\fR
+Show only one attribute
+.
+.P
+Show a client\.
+.
+.SH "COOKBOOK SUB\-COMMANDS"
+Cookbooks are the fundamental unit of distribution in Chef\. They encapsulate all recipes of resources and assets used to configure a particular aspect of the infrastructure\. The following sub\-commands can be used to manipulate the cookbooks stored on the Chef Server\.
+.
+.P
+\fBcookbook bulk delete REGEX\fR \fI(options)\fR
+.
+.TP
+\fB\-p\fR, \fB\-\-purge\fR
+Purge files from backing store\. This will disable any cookbook that contains any of the same files as the cookbook being purged\.
+.
+.P
+Delete cookbooks on the Chef Server based on a regular expression\. The regular expression (\fIREGEX\fR) should be in quotes, not in //\'s\.
+.
+.P
+\fBcookbook create COOKBOOK\fR \fI(options)\fR
+.

+.SH "CLOUD COMPUTING SUB\-COMMANDS"
+The next sections describe sub\-commands to work with various Cloud Computing APIs to launch server instances with validation and run\-time configuration that Chef knows about\. These sub\-commands require the fog Ruby library\. On Debian and Ubuntu systems with Opscode\'s apt repository (apt\.opscode\.com), this is the package \fBlibfog\-ruby\fR\. It is also available as a RubyGem, \fBfog\fR\.
+.
+.P
+The Rackspace and Terremark server creation sub\-commands are at an early stage of development\. They do not yet use the \fBbootstrap\fR sub\-command to install Chef, and make a few assumptions to be aware\. Right now when creating instances of these types, knife will assume an Ubuntu image, install Ruby from packages, RubyGems from source and Chef as a RubyGem\. As these commands are developed further, they will utilize the \fBbootstrap\fR sub\-command\.
+.
+.P
+In order to use knife with the various \fBCLOUD COMPUTING SUB\-COMMANDS\fR, credentials need to be added to the configuration file\. See \fBCONFIGURATION\fR\.
+.
+.SH "EC2 SUB\-COMMANDS"
+Chef is commonly used with Amazon AWS EC2 nodes\. This sub\-command will generate instance metadata that can be used to automatically configure an EC2 instance with Chef\. This requires an AMI that has Chef preinstalled with a configuration file that can parse the metadata at run\-time\. At this time this is the only sub\-command for EC2, but more may be added later similar to \fBRACKSPACE\fR and \fBTERREMARK\fR below\.
