+      **Install a file from a remote location**
+
+      The following is an example of how to install the foo123 module for Nginx. This module adds shell-style functionality to an Nginx configuration file and does the following:
+
+        - Declares three variables
+        - Gets the Nginx file from a remote location
+        - Installs the file using Bash to the path specified by the `src_filepath` variable
+
+      ```ruby
+      src_filename = "foo123-nginx-module-v#{node['nginx']['foo123']['version']}.tar.gz"
+      src_filepath = "#{Chef::Config['file_cache_path']}/#{src_filename}"
+      extract_path = "#{Chef::Config['file_cache_path']}/nginx_foo123_module/#{node['nginx']['foo123']['checksum']}"
+
+      remote_file 'src_filepath' do
+        source node['nginx']['foo123']['url']
+        checksum node['nginx']['foo123']['checksum']
+        owner 'root'
+        group 'root'
+        mode '0755'
+      end
+
+      bash 'extract_module' do

+          tar xzf #{src_filename} -C #{extract_path}
+          mv #{extract_path}/*/* #{extract_path}/

+      ```ruby
+      git "#{Chef::Config[:file_cache_path]}/ruby-build" do
+        repository 'git://github.com/rbenv/ruby-build.git'
+        revision 'master'
+        action :sync
+      end
+
+      bash 'install_ruby_build' do
+        cwd "#{Chef::Config[:file_cache_path]}/ruby-build"
+        user 'rbenv'
+        group 'rbenv'
+        code <<-EOH
+          ./install.sh
+        EOH
+        environment 'PREFIX' => '/usr/local'
+      end
+      ```
+
+      **Using Attributes in Bash Code**
+
+      The following recipe shows how an attributes file can be used to store certain settings. An attributes file is located in the `attributes/`` directory in the same cookbook as the recipe which calls the attributes file. In this example, the attributes file specifies certain settings for Python that are then used across all nodes against which this recipe will run.
+
+      Python packages have versions, installation directories, URLs, and checksum files. An attributes file that exists to support this type of recipe would include settings like the following:
+
+      ```ruby
+      default['python']['version'] = '2.7.1'
+
+      if python['install_method'] == 'package'
+        default['python']['prefix_dir'] = '/usr'
+      else
+        default['python']['prefix_dir'] = '/usr/local'
+      end
+
+      default['python']['url'] = 'http://www.python.org/ftp/python'
+      default['python']['checksum'] = '80e387...85fd61'
+      ```
+
+      and then the methods in the recipe may refer to these values. A recipe that is used to install Python will need to do the following:
+
+        - Identify each package to be installed (implied in this example, not shown)
+        - Define variables for the package `version` and the `install_path`
+        - Get the package from a remote location, but only if the package does not already exist on the target system
+        - Use the **bash** resource to install the package on the node, but only when the package is not already installed
+
+      ```ruby
+      version = node['python']['version']
+      install_path = "#{node['python']['prefix_dir']}/lib/python#{version.split(/(^\d+\.\d+)/)[1]}"
+
+      remote_file "#{Chef::Config[:file_cache_path]}/Python-#{version}.tar.bz2" do
+        source "#{node['python']['url']}/#{version}/Python-#{version}.tar.bz2"
+        checksum node['python']['checksum']
+        mode '0755'
+        not_if { ::File.exist?(install_path) }
+      end
+

+        cwd Chef::Config[:file_cache_path]
+        code <<-EOF
+          tar -jxvf Python-#{version}.tar.bz2
+          (cd Python-#{version} && ./configure #{configure_options})

+      **Bare minimum #{ChefUtils::Dist::Infra::PRODUCT} client.rb**:
+
+      The absolute minimum configuration necessary for a node to communicate with the Infra Server is the URL of the Infra Server. All other configuration options either have values at the server side (Policyfiles, Roles, Environments, etc) or have default values determined at client startup.
+
+      ```ruby

+
+      **Adding additional config content to the client.rb**:
+
+      This resource aims to provide common configuration options. Some configuration options are missing and some users may want to use arbitrary Ruby code within their configuration. For this we offer an `additional_config` property that can be used to add any configuration or code to the bottom of the `client.rb` file. Also keep in mind that within the configuration directory is a `client.d` directory where you can put additional `.rb` files containing configuration options. These can be created using `file` or `template` resources within your cookbooks as necessary.

+      chef_client_config 'Create client.rb' do
+        chef_server_url 'https://chef.example.dmz'

+          # Extra config code to safely load a gem into the client run.
