3
+ The Resource Cookbook
4
+ =====================
5
+
6
+ Chef Resources are incredibly important to creating good, useful, reusable cookbooks. Yet people often don't create them because it's too hard. The resource cookbook aims to change that.
7
+
8
+ The resource cookbook is an attempt to make Chef Resources significantly easier and more fun to create, while being even more powerful. It does this by:
9
+
10
+ - Vastly simplifying resource writing so you just make a "resource" and "recipe" in a single file.
11
+ - Making good primitive resources easier to build with builtin test-and-set support.
12
+ - Allowing users to *read* data from resources, making them significantly more useful.
13
+ - Allowing users to easily customize resource definitions in-place, adding defaults and tweaks.
14
+
15
+ I am looking for people to try this out and give feedback. IT IS EXPERIMENTAL. There are bugs (though I generally don't know what they are). Things will change. There is a lot of feedback to gather and that will affect what it does. But this has been revised many, many times in an attempt to produce something close enough to right that I hope it won't change *much,* or in fundamental ways.
16
+
17
+ This is also unfinished in that there are more features to be added: chief among them are nested properties (Hash, Array, Set and Struct), nested resources (github.organization.repository) and recipe semantics (immediate mode and parallel recipes). 0.1 is a stop along the way, but a very significant one that defines the basis for Resources.
18
+
19
+ For an in-depth comparison of Chef Resources and ChefResource Resources, see the [0.1 release notes](docs/0.1-release.md).
20
+
21
+ Getting Started
22
+ ---------------
23
+ To get started, upload the resource cookbook and add this to your `metadata.rb`:
24
+
25
+ ```ruby
26
+ depends "resource"
27
+ ```
28
+
29
+ ChefResource is now loaded in, and the following features are available:
30
+ - `Chef.resource`, `ChefResource.define` and `ChefResource.defaults` will define and customize resources
31
+ - All recipes everywhere can call ChefResource resources
32
+ - The `resources` directory in your cookbook now creates ChefResource resources (via `Chef.resource`).
33
+ - Recipes in your cookbook have `resource`, `define` and `defaults` available (which call the `ChefResource.` equivalent)
34
+
35
+ NOTE: cookbooks that depend on your cookbook will *not* automatically be ChefResourceed. Only cookbooks that explicitly depend on the resource cookbook will be transformed.
36
+
37
+ Compatibility
38
+ -------------
39
+
40
+ ChefResource works with Chef 12. It also does not change *anything* about existing cookbook behavior, and only affects cookbooks who have `depends "resource"` in their metadata. Resources you create with ChefResource are available to all cookbooks, including existing cookbooks which do not directly depend on the "resource" cookbook.
41
+
42
+ Define: Dashing Off a Quick Resource
43
+ ------------------------------------
44
+
45
+ Say you noticed that you're creating a series of "user home directories," like this:
46
+
47
+ ```ruby
48
+ # Old recipe
49
+ user 'jkeiser' do
50
+ group 'users'
51
+ end
52
+
53
+ directory "/home/jkeiser" do
54
+ owner 'jkeiser'
55
+ group 'users'
56
+ mode 0700
57
+ end
58
+
59
+ file "/home/jkeiser/.bashrc" do
60
+ owner 'jkeiser'
61
+ group 'users'
62
+ mode 0700
63
+ content "sh /sys/global_bashrc"
64
+ end
65
+
66
+ user 'fnichol' do
67
+ group 'users'
68
+ end
69
+
70
+ directory "/home/fnichol" do
71
+ owner 'fnichol'
72
+ group 'users'
73
+ mode 0700
74
+ end
75
+
76
+ file "/home/fnichol/.bashrc" do
77
+ owner 'fnichol'
78
+ group 'users'
79
+ mode 0700
80
+ content "sh /sys/global_bashrc"
81
+ end
82
+
83
+ ...
84
+ ```
85
+
86
+ That's a lot of repetition! How do you make repetition better in Chef? A resource! Just write this in your recipe:
87
+
88
+ ```ruby
89
+ define :user_bundle, :username, primary_group: 'users' do
90
+ user username do
91
+ group primary_group
92
+ end
93
+
94
+ directory "/home/#{username}" do
95
+ owner username
96
+ group primary_group
97
+ mode 0700
98
+ end
99
+
100
+ file "/home/#{username}/.bashrc" do
101
+ content "sh /sys/global_bashrc"
102
+
103
+ owner username
104
+ group primary_group
105
+ mode 0700
106
+ end
107
+ end
108
+
109
+ # Now let's use our resource!
110
+ user_bundle 'jkeiser' do
111
+ end
112
+ user_bundle 'fnichol' do
113
+ end
114
+ user_bundle 'blargh' do
115
+ end
116
+ ```
117
+
118
+ Much more concise, much more readable, much easier to change!
119
+
120
+ Creating a Simple Resource
121
+ --------------------------
122
+ If you want to really customize the properties of a resource, or want to do more interesting things, you can always create a `resources` file. ChefResource appropriates the LWRP `resources` directory, so you create a `resources/user_bundle.rb`:
123
+
124
+ ```ruby
125
+ # resources/user_bundle.rb
126
+ property :username, String, identity: true
127
+ property :primary_group, String
128
+ property :home_dir, Path, relative_to: '/home' do
129
+ default { username }
130
+ end
131
+
132
+ recipe do
133
+ user username do

162
+
163
+ Some features here:
164
+ - `property` is how you define a named thing
165
+ - `identity: true` means that when you write `user_bundle 'jkeiser'`, `username` will be set to `jkeiser`.
166
+ - `String` and `Path` are property *types*. It means the resource will not allow the user to set the property to something else, like 1 or false, which isn't a valid path or username.
167
+ - `relative_to: '/home'` is a modifier for `Path` saying "when the user says `home_dir 'jkeiser2'`, set `home_dir` to `/home/jkeiser2`."
168
+ - `default { username }` is a *computed default*: if the user does not set `home_dir`, `home_dir` will be `/home/<username>`
169
+
170
+ NOTE: you can define a resource *anywhere* by writing `Chef.resource :name do ... end`, and writing `property` and `recipe` statements inside. You can do this in `libraries`, `recipes` or even outside Chef.

172
+ Building Primitive Resources: Load and Converge
173
+ -----------------------------------------------
174
+
175
+ Up until now, we've been showing "compound" resources whose primary job is to wrap other resources like `file`, `package` and `service`. This is enough for huge numbers of people, and the primitive resources handle the work of "test-and-set," showing the "(up to date)" if nothing needs to change, or the green text when a change occurs.
176
+
177
+ Sometimes you need to build a real primitive resource, when `file` `package` and `service` aren't enough. When this comes up, ChefResource handles the work of test-and-set for you with the `load` and `converge` methods.
178
+
179
+ Consider a simple file resource:
180
+
181
+ ```ruby
182
+ # resources/file.rb
183
+ property :path, Path, identity: true
184
+ property :mode, Integer
185
+ property :content, String
186
+
187
+ recipe do
188
+ converge do
189
+ File.chmod(mode, path)
190
+ IO.write(path, content)
191
+ end
192
+ end
193
+
194
+ def load
195
+ mode File.stat(path).mode
196
+ content IO.read(path)
197
+ end
198
+ ```
199
+
200
+ The The resource cookbook things here:
201
+
202
+ - `converge do ...` handles test-and-set. It will check to see if the user has changed `mode` or `content` from its real value (as read in by `load`). If so, it will print an appropriate message in green text showing what's changed, and mark the resource as updated.
203
+ - `def load` loads the *current values* of the actual resource. This is called when `converge` happens, or when the user asks for a value that hasn't been filled in (like if they ask for `mode` and haven't set it yet).
204
+
205
+ What's also interesting is you have now defined a *read API*. If the user does `file('/x.txt').content`, then it will show you the file contents of `/x.txt`.
206
+
207
+ Customizing Resources in Cookbooks: Defaults
208
+ --------------------------------------------
209
+
210
+ As a *user* of a resource, there are a number of times where you're repeating something over and over. How many of us have typed this:
211
+
212
+ ```ruby
213
+ file '/x.txt' do
214
+ owner 'jkeiser'
215
+ group 'users'
216
+ mode 0755
217
+ content 'x'
218
+ end
219
+ file '/y.txt' do
220
+ owner 'jkeiser'
221
+ group 'users'
222
+ mode 0755
223
+ content 'y'
224
+ end
225
+ file '/z.txt' do
226
+ owner 'jkeiser'
227
+ group 'users'
228
+ mode 0755
229
+ content 'z'
230
+ end
231
+ ```
232
+
233
+ ChefResource gives you a quick way to redefine the defaults of a resource:
234
+
235
+ ```ruby
236
+ defaults :my_file, :file, owner: 'jkeiser', group: 'users', mode: 0755
237
+ my_file '/x.txt' do
238
+ content 'x'
239
+ end
240
+ my_file '/y.txt' do
241
+ content 'y'
242
+ end
243
+ my_file '/z.txt' do
244
+ content 'z'
245
+ end
246
+ ```
247
+
248
+ You can also specialize resources with more complex behavior:
249
+
250
+ ```ruby
251
+ # A version of "file" that assumes the group == the username
252
+ resource :my_file, :file do
253
+ attribute :group, String do
254
+ default { username }
255
+ end
256
+ end
257
+ ```
