Hi,
How would I go about calling msbuild from chef? In fact, to extend this, how
do I call commandline programs from chef under windows?
I’m converting a whole yheap of PowerShell-based scripts to Chef.
Kind regards
Sean.
There is a good starter page for Chef on Windows here:
There are built-in resources for batch, dsc_script and
powershell_script that should help make porting efforts easier.
Thanks,

Matt had some great resources.. there is also a Windows focused version of learn.chef.io that will walk you through getting started with Chef and running command via Chef on Windows.

Sean,
Additionally, there's this book (it's somewhat light but is a good starting place):
Also, if you're like me and like looking at code, there's a thread here where I discussed trying to get a cookbook that would use dcpromo under powershell script:
