Access node attributes in a library

Can we access node attributes in a library? In the sample below, I get an error

NoMethodError: undefined method `[]’ for nil:NilClass on the stomp_server
variable assignment line


class Chef::Recipe::LOG
   def self.logEvent(s)
	stomp_server = @node[:stomp_server]
	Chef::Log.info ("#{stomp_server}");
end

end

You can access node attributes within a library if you do one of two things:

If your library is a module you can include it into Chef::Recipe which will give you access to the node by the node function
You can pass the node into your function and access it within the scope of that function.
