ruby - How I can capture values in command line and add to recipe? -

i new chef , ruby

i need pass 2 variables chef on command line , have variables available in recipe.

how can capture these values , them in chef?

i need this:

before_deploy command execute param1 param2 deploy{ param1/param2}

where param1 , param2 values @ run-time command-line.

when provision machine running

chef-solo

or

chef-client

you cannot provide arguments these commands can visible recipes. chef recipes work attributes. thing (or not good) attributes can set many different places: roles, nodes, environments , json file.

the workaround nearest request is

create json-file on machine pass when running chef-client or chef-solo use attributes in recipe

for example: apache config.

create json file: my_attrs.json

{ "apache": { "listen_port": "81", "listen_path": "/myapp" } }

and utilize them in recipe:

node[:apache][:listen_port] node[:apache][:listen_path]

run chef-client or chef-solo -j flag.

chef-solo -j my_attrs.json

if my_attrs.json on remote server, can provide url.

chef-solo -j http://remote.host/path/my_attrs.json
