Library cookbook which provides a resource for writing runtime configuration files.
A runtime configuration file can come in many flavors, but ultimately the purpose is to manage them using a simple resource. The only type which is provided by default is a bash runtime configuration which is simply a key-value pair.
Any new types can be added by modifying the resource (adding a type) and writing the appropriate erb template.
The example which is used for testing purposes is writing out an bashrc skeleton file which manages HTTP proxies.
rc_file '/etc/skel/bashrc' do
options(
'http_proxy' => 'http://proxy.corporate.com:80',
'https_proxy' => 'http://proxy.corporate.com:443',
'ftp_proxy' => 'http://proxy.corporate.com:80',
'no_proxy' => 'localhost,127.0.0.1'
)
end
