+knife-configure(1) -- Generate configuration files for knife or Chef Client
+========================================
+
+## SYNOPSIS
+
+__knife__ __configure__ [client] _(options)_
+
+## DESCRIPTION
+Generates a knife.rb configuration file interactively. When given the
+--initial option, also creates a new administrative user.
+
+## CONFIGURE SUBCOMMANDS ##
+
+__knife configure__ _(options)_
+
+  * `-i`, `--initial`:
+    Create an initial API Client
+  * `-r`, `--repository REPO`:
+    The path to your chef-repo
+
+Create a configuration file for knife. This will prompt for values to
+enter into the file. Default values are listed in square brackets if no
+other entry is typed. See __knife__(1) for a description of
+configuration options.
+
+__knife configure client__ _directory_
+
+Read the _knife.rb_ config file and generate a config file suitable for
+use in _/etc/chef/client.rb_ and copy the validation certificate into
+the specified _directory_.
+
+## EXAMPLES
+  * On a freshly installed Chef Server, use _knife configure -i_ to
+    create an administrator and knife configuration file. Leave the
+    field blank to accept the default value. On most systems, the
+    default values are acceptable.
+
+    user@host$ knife configure -i  
+    Please enter the chef server URL: [http://localhost:4000]  
+    Please enter a clientname for the new client: [username]  
+    Please enter the existing admin clientname: [chef-webui]  
+    Please enter the location of the existing admin client's private key: [/etc/chef/webui.pem]  
+    Please enter the validation clientname: [chef-validator]  
+    Please enter the location of the validation key: [/etc/chef/validation.pem]  
+    Please enter the path to a chef repository (or leave blank):  
+    Creating initial API user...  
+    Created (or updated) client[username]  
+    Configuration file written to /home/username/.chef/knife.rb  
+
+    This creates a new administrator client named _username_, writes
+    a configuration file to _/home/username/.chef/knife.rb_, and the
+    private key to _/home/username/.chef/username.pem_. The
+    configuration file and private key may be copied to another system
+    to facilitate administration of the Chef Server from a remote
+    system. Depending on the value given for the Chef Server URL, you
+    may need to modify that setting after copying to a remote host.

+knife-cookbook-site(1) -- Install and update open source cookbooks
+========================================
+
+## SYNOPSIS
+
+__knife__ __cookbook site__ _sub-command_ _(options)_
+
+## COOKBOOK SITE SUB-COMMANDS
+`knife cookbook site` provides the following subcommands:
+
+## INSTALL
+__cookbook site install COOKBOOK [VERSION]__ _(options)_
+
+  * `-D`, `--skip-dependencies `:
+    Skip automatic installation of dependencies.
+  * `-o`, `--cookbook-path PATH`:
+    Install cookbooks to PATH
+  * `-B`, `--branch BRANCH`:
+    Default branch to work with [defaults to master]
+
+Uses git(1) version control in conjunction with the cookbook site to
+install community contributed cookbooks to your local cookbook
+repository. Running `knife cookbook site install` does the following:
+
+1. A new "pristine copy" branch is created in git for tracking the
+   upstream;
+2. All existing cookbooks are removed from the branch;
+3. The cookbook is downloaded from the cookbook site in tarball form;
+4. The downloaded cookbook is untarred, and its contents commited via git;
+5. The pristine copy branch is merged into the master branch.
+
+By installing cookbook with this process, you can locally modify the
+upstream cookbook in your master branch and let git maintain your
+changes as a separate patch.  When an updated upstream version becomes
+available, you will be able to merge the upstream changes while
+maintaining your local modifications.
+
+Unless _--skip-dependencies_ is specified, the process is applied recursively to all the
+cookbooks _COOKBOOK_ depends on (via metadata _dependencies_).
+
+## DOWNLOAD
+__knife cookbook site download COOKBOOK [VERSION]__ _(options)_
+
+  * `-f`, `--file FILE`:
+    The filename to write to
+  * `--force`:
+    Force download deprecated cookbook
+
+Downloads a specific cookbook from the Community site, optionally
+specifying a certain version.
+
+## LIST
+__knife cookbook site list__ _(options)_
+
+  * `-w`, `--with-uri`:
+    Show corresponding URIs
+
+Lists available cookbooks from the Community site.
+
+## SEARCH
+__knife cookbook site search QUERY__ _(options)_
+
+Searches for available cookbooks matching the specified query.
+
+## SHARE
+__knife cookbook site share COOKBOOK CATEGORY__ _(options)_
+
+  * `-k`, `--key KEY`:
+    API Client Key
+  * `-u`, `--user USER`:
+    API Client Username
+  * `-o`, `--cookbook-path PATH:PATH`:
+    A colon-separated path to look for cookbooks in
+
+Uploads the specified cookbook using the given category to the Opscode
+cookbooks site. Requires a login user and certificate for the Opscode
+Cookbooks site. By default, knife will use the username and API key
+you've configured in your configuration file; otherwise you must
+explicitly set these values on the command line or use an alternate
+configuration file.
+
+## UNSHARE
+__knife cookbook site unshare COOKBOOK__
+
+Stops sharing the specified cookbook on the Opscode cookbooks site.
+
+## SHOW
+__knife cookbook site show COOKBOOK [VERSION]__ _(options)_
+
+Shows information from the site about a particular cookbook.
+
+## DESCRIPTION
+The cookbook site, <http://community.opscode.com/>, is a cookbook
+distribution service operated by Opscode. This service provides users
+with a central location to publish cookbooks for sharing with other
+community members.
+
+`knife cookbook site` commands provide an interface to the cookbook
+site's HTTP API. For commands that read data from the API, no account is
+required. In order to upload cookbooks using the `knife cookbook site
+share` command, you must create an account on the cookbook site and
+configure your credentials via command line option or in your knife
+configuration file.
+
+## EXAMPLES
+Uploading cookbooks to the Opscode cookbooks site:
+
+    knife cookbook site share example Other -k ~/.chef/USERNAME.pem -u USERNAME

+named cookbook.
+
+* cookbook/attributes
+* cookbook/definitions
+* cookbook/files/default
+* cookbook/libraries
+* cookbook/metadata.rb
+* cookbook/providers
+* cookbook/readme.md
+* cookbook/recipes/default.rb
+* cookbook/resources
+* cookbook/templates/default
+
+supported readme formats are 'md' (default), 'mkd', 'txt', 'rdoc'. the
+readme file will be written with the specified extension and a set of
+helpful starting headers.
+
+specify `-c` or `--copyright` with the name of the copyright holder as
+your name or your company/organization name in a quoted string. if this
+value is not specified an all-caps string `your_company_name` is used
+which can be easily changed with find/replace.
+
+specify `-i` or `--license` with the license that the cookbook is
+distributed under for sharing with other people or posting to the

+
+## METADATA FROM FILE
+__knife cookbook metadata from file__ _(options)_
+
+load the cookbook metadata from a specified file.
+
+## TEST
+__knife cookbook test [cookbooks...]__ _(options)_
+
+  * `-a`, `--all`:
+    test all cookbooks, rather than just a single cookbook
+  * `-o`, `--cookbook-path path:path`:

+ruby syntax checking option for files in the cookbook ending in `.rb`,
+and the erb syntax check for files ending in `.erb` (templates).
+
+## RECIPE LIST
+__knife recipe list [PATTERN]__
+
+List available recipes from the server. Specify _PATTERN_ as a regular
+expression to limit the results.
+
+## DESCRIPTION
+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.
+
+On disk, cookbooks are directories with a defined structure. The
+following directories may appear within a cookbook:
+
+  * COOKBOOK/attributes/:
+    Ruby files that define default parameters to be used in recipes
+  * COOKBOOK/definitions/:
+    Ruby files that contain _resource definitions_
+  * COOKBOOK/files/SPECIFICITY:
+    Files of arbitrary type. These files may be downloaded by
+    chef-client(8) when configuring a host.
+  * COOKBOOK/libraries/:
+    Ruby files that contain library code needed for recipes
+  * COOKBOOK/providers/:
+    Ruby files that contain Lightweight Provider definitions
+  * COOKBOOK/recipes/:
+    Ruby files that use Chef's recipe DSL to describe the desired
+    configuration of a system
+  * COOKBOOK/resources/:
+    Ruby files that contain Lightweight Resource definitions
+  * COOKBOOK/templates/SPECIFICITY:
+    ERuby (ERb) template files. These are referenced by _recipes_ and
+    evaluated to dynamically generate configuration files.
+
+__SPECIFICITY__ is a feature of _files_ and _templates_ that allow you
+to specify alternate files to be used on a specific OS platform or host.
+The default specificity setting is _default_, that is files in
+`COOKBOOK/files/default` will be used when a more specific copy is not
+available. Further documentation for this feature is available on the
+Chef wiki: <http://wiki.opscode.com/display/chef/File+Distribution#FileDistribution-FileSpecificity>
+
+Cookbooks also contain a metadata file that defines various properties
+of the cookbook. The most important of these are the _version_ and the
+_dependencies_. The _version_ is used in combination with environments
+to select which copy of a given cookbook is distributed to a node. The
+_dependencies_ are used by the server to determine which additional
+cookbooks must be distributed to a given host when it requires a
+cookbook.
