Chef cookbook to install Atlassian Crowd

Crowd Cookbook

This cookbook installs Atlassian's Crowd. It defaults to using PostgreSQL for its DB and Nginx for its proxy.

It sets up a full working system after which you can run Atlassian's configuration wizard. If you want more influence, you can write a wrapper cookbook for your specific setup.

Supports

• Ubuntu 14.04

Other platforms or versions may or may not work, but I've simply not tested them at this time. If your run this cookbook on another platform or version successfully, please let me know in GitHub issues.

Usage

crowd::default

Just include crowd in your node's run_list:

{
  "name":"my_node",
  "run_list": [
    "recipe[crowd]"
  ]
}
