Chef read configuration from external file and use it in recipe

Chef Infra (archive)

Hi All,

a part of my app deployment requires to read a property file from perforce
file and then use different values for some processing inside my chef
recipe.

I can download the file and keep it somewhere on chef server, but how do i
pass this file to chef clients , as this file is needed to read the config
details .

I believe most of you have done something or the else like this,

Please advise.

Thanks
Manoj

If it is static you can use templates. Look template resources in Chef
documentation. If you want I can send you an example later.
