Marathon Cookbook

Description

Application cookbook for installing Mesosphere's Marathon. Marathon is an Apache Mesos framework for long-running services.

Requirements

Chef 12.0.0+

This cookbook also assumes you will be running a zookeeper cluster for production use of Mesos and Marathon.

This cookbook also depends on the mesos cookbook.

The following cookbooks are dependencies:

• apt
• yum
• java
• mesos (used for installing the Mesos libraries)

The following cookbooks are recommended:

• zookeeper

This cookbook is tested by running Marathon without ZooKeeper support, however it is currently not recommended to run it in this way in production. Please use a wrapper cookbook to set up a ZooKeeper + Mesos + Marathon stack in your environment.

Platform:

Tested on

• Ubuntu 16.04
• Ubuntu 14.04
• CentOS 7.2
• CentOS 6.8

This cookbook includes cross-platform testing support via test-kitchen.
