Useful Fabric tasks for Chef operations.
Chef knife
command is too primitive, so many commands have to execute.
This library is wrapper for the Chef knife
command and provide useful tasks for Chef operation in Command-Line interface.

Put the Fabric script file called 'fabfile.py' in your chef repository.
The /.chef directory and files under that can generate using 'create_chef_repo' task. See more information '$ fab -d create_chef_repo`.
/[Your Chef repository]
+- /.chef
| +- knife.rb
| +- [Your private key].pem

fabfile.py
is Python script file for define the Fabric tasks.
You will be available the tasks for Chef operation by import this library.

from __future__ import print_function
# Import required fabric-chef members. (Must be use from-import syntax.)
from fabricchef.api import *
from fabricchef.tasks.common import *

import fabricchef.tasks.node as node
import fabricchef.tasks.recipe as recipe
# You can add any custom tasks for this Chef repository.
@task
def custom_task():
print('Hello.')
Run fab
command with any task.
$ fab chefenv.list
-> Should be show all Chef Environments in your Chef Organization.
-
Execute single command.
$ fab chefenv.list
-
Execute multiple commands.(Execute sequentially)
$ fab chefenv.list vault.list
-
Dry-Run.
$ fab dryrun recipe.run:foobar.example.com,"role[install]"
-
Specify knife config.
$ fab conf:foobar/.chef/knife.rb chefenv.list
-
Specify output format os json.(Available table, text, json and flat)
$ fab output:json chefenv.list
-
Combining some options.
$ fab conf:foobar/.chef/knife.rb output:json node.list:prod
Use $ fab -l
command to show all available tasks.
$ fab -l
Available commands:
conf Specify path of Knife config file.(Default ./chef/knife.rb...
dryrun Enable Dry-Run mode. Do NOT update anything.
output Specify output format. (table|text|json|flat) (Default table)
vault.apply Create Vault item. (and grant admin permission)
vault.list List all Vault items.
vault.show Show Vault item.
chefenv.apply Create or Update Environment(s) from specified path(dir or...
chefenv.list List all Environments in Organization.
chefenv.show Show current Environment.
node.add Add Node to current Environment.
node.list List Nodes in specified Environment.
node.show Show Node.
recipe.run Run recipe(s) on specified node.
role.apply Create or Update Role(s) from specified path(dir or file).
role.list List all Roles in Organization.
And You can see task detail using -d option like this $ fab -d node.add
.
$ fab -d node.add
Displaying detailed information for task 'node.add':
Add Node to current Environment.
