This repository contains a prototype for building a custom image using Chef recipes.
Make sure that you have chef and vagrant installed locally:
Chef provides us several short cuts for downloading and generating cookbooks through knife, and vagrant allows us
to test our changes locally before triggering a build on Scrutinizer.
Now that you have installed all dependencies, simply clone this repository:
git clone git://github.com/scrutinizer/chef-container-prototype my-container
git remote set-url origin git@github.com:your-login/my-container.git
Add the new repository on Scrutinizer and push your changes to your repository:
git push -u origin master
You should now see a first build of your container being triggered on Scrutinizer.
During development, you typically iterate on your recipes locally before committing your changes and triggering a build on Scrutinizer. If you installed vagrant, you can just run
vagrant up
This will fetch the base image and run your chef recipes. If your box is already running, you can instead run
vagrant provision
