Overview

Welcome to Zero to Cloud in 90 Days with Chef, based on the training material for the class Chef Fundamentals by Opscode. The materials themselves are written in plain text "Markdown" format, and presented using the "ShowOff" Ruby-based presentation application.

The rest of this file is largely carried over unchanged.

If you're seeing this at http://localhost:9090, you need to run the showoff command from the slides directory.

Setup

Requirements:

  • Ruby 1.8.7+
  • RubyGems 1.3.7+
  • Rake
  • libxml2 and libxslt development headers (e.g., libxml2-dev and libxslt-dev on Debian/Ubuntu).
gem install bundler
bundle install
rake present # runs bundle exec showoff serve in the slides dir

Depending on how your local system's Ruby was installed, you may need to use sudo to run gem install and bundle install. You may also need to use bundle exec showoff serve in the slides directory to run the presentation, though the rake task should handle this already.

Two URLs are available:

When presenting the materials as an instructor, use the "presenter" view. This will also pop up a second browser window that will advance with the presenter window. To move forward and back, use the arrow keys. Down/Right go forward, Up/Left go backward. Spacebar will also advance slides forward.

Installed Gems

The source materials in the slides directory are set up as a showoff project. As such, the showoff gem is required. In order to generate PDFs with showoff, the pdfkit gem is installed.

Slides Directory

Most of the action happens in the slides directory.

Slide Style Guide

This is spartan and will be embellished.

  • Create sections as directories.
  • Use PNGs for images.
  • Directory names should be lower case words as a title, "getting-started"
  • Each directory should have a 01_slide.md, multiple sections may be broken up later.

Guides Directory

See the instructor-setup.md guide in the guides directory for information on how to set up the lab environments for students to use in the hands on portion of the course.
