This cookbook installs and configures CycleComputing's CycleServer. Currently only the standalone version of the Grill component is supported. For more information about CycleServer and Grill, see http://www.cyclecomputing.com/grill
The canonical source for this cookbook is: https://github.com/kcbraunschweig/cycleserver
The cookbook has been tested on RHEL 5.7 and 6.1. It should work on any RedHat style linux. The only thing distro-specific is the use of init/chkconfig so hopefully it will support other distros in a future version.
See attributes/grill.rb
for all default values.

Grill requires 2 pieces of manual configuration and then will configure a basic Grill server out of the box. These are private download locations for the Grill tarball and Oracle Java. This is because each requires manual actions on a web page to download. Once you've downloaded them to your private repository, you may want to configure Grill with a role like the example below.
Once Grill is up and running, point your browser at port 8080 and complete the configuration via the Grill webui.
Role example:
grill_server.rb
name 'grill_server'
description 'CycleServer Grill Server'
run_list(
"recipe[cycleserver::grill]"
)
default_attributes(
"cycle_server" => {
"grill" => {
"url" => "http://download.example.com/cycle_server-grill-1.5.tar.gz",
"checksum" => "1925adab234c188f1cb55a54d34ca1668865ee72da16db15904669fc5a1f9d08"
}
},
"java" => {
"install_flavor" => "oracle",
"jdk" => {
"6" => {
"x86_64" => {
"url" => "http://download.example.com/jdk-6u32-linux-x64.bin",
"checksum" => "269d05b8d88e583e4e66141514d8294e636f537f55eb50962233c9e33d8f8f49"
}
}
}
}
)
Note that Oracle Java is required and the above assumes you are using the community Java cookbook. If you have another
prefered method for providing Oracle Java for your environment, you can disable inclusion of the java recipe by setting
the node["cycle_server"]["grill"]["include_java"]
attribute to false
and adding your own method to the run_list.
You can also disable creation of the user/group that will run Grill by setting node["cycle_server"]["grill"]["manage_user"]
to false
. You must still set the attributes for user and group and provide them on the system by your own method.
