Cupper

Taste your environment and creates a cookbook for it! Cupper is a command line tool that runs in some environment (see supoorted platforms below) and creates a cookbook based on it. It will collect information about the package installed, file configuration, groups, users, links, links and services. Once you have this cookbook, you can change according to your needs, or just runs it in another environment.

Support Platform

Currently, Cupper support the platforms listed below. It means that we tested on this specific platforms and versions, but may work on others version. Let us know :)

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'cupper'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself with:

$ gem install cupper

Usage

Cupper is a command line tool. All commands are available through bash/shell terminal. First create a Cupper project with the following command:

$ cupper create <project_name>

This will create a directory within a given name. The structure of the Cupper project contains:

.project
  |
  |- cookbooks/
  |- Cupperfile
  |- .sensibles

• cookbook: the recipe that are generated is stored in this directory
• Cupperfile: configuration file that allows you to customize some items inside the cookbook
• .sensibles: specifies all files that are not suppose to be collected (patten witha a regex is given)

Inside the project directory you can run the command:

$ cupper generate

This will generate a cookbook based on the configurations on the machine and store in cookbooks/ directory.

Development

This is a common gem, so doesn't needs a bunch of configuration on your environment to develop something. Just use a ruby environment with rbenv or RVM (ruby 2.2.0 or higher).

Ohai

We use Ohai gem to extract the information about the environment. We created our Ohai plugins, it's code made in ruby, so nothing unusual. Check the official doc of Ohai for more knowledge about it.
