I had a requirement to build a chef-client packaged with native recipes and a python project embedded within it. When I’m browsing, I found that chef omnibus is the best source available to build
custom chef installations.
As I’m totally new to chef ecosystem, can someone shed some light or provide a concise way of leveraging chef omnibus system to build platform dependent packages with a local python project.
Omnibus may be overkill for what you’re trying to do, it’s intended for
building lots of cross-platform targets. If your application is only
running on Linux or WIndows have you looked at Habitat? It’s intended to
make it easy to build, package, and manage applications and services.
