Adding recipes from to a nodes run_list

Chef Infra (archive)

Hi folks!
I’m using chef 0.7.16 and want to add a specific recipe to a nodes run_list
like I can do by using the WebUI, but by writing my own script.
I loaded a cookbook and tought about adding it to the run_list. Of cause that
doesn’t work, so I tried to get the single recipes of that cookbook by using

recipes = cookbook.recipes
recipes.each do |recipe|
node.run_list << recipe
end

But after I’ve done that, the recipes don’t apper in the runlist shown in the
WebUI.
What am I doing wrong? Is that maybe the wrong way?

Thanks in advance,
Kris

Don't forget to call 'node.save'
