Hey folks,
Another week brings with it another dozen Cookstyle cops. Freshen up your cookbooks with the 94 Chef cops now shipping in Cookstyle.
ChefDeprecations/WindowsTaskChangeAction
The ChefDeprecations/WindowsTaskChangeAction cop detects the windows_task resource used with the legacy :change action. When the windows_task resource was moved into Chef Infra Client 13, the :change action was merged into the :create action. Most users set the :change action in conjunction with :create, and :change can now be removed.
Enabled by default: True
Autocorrects: Yes
ChefDeprecations/RecipeMetadata
The ChefDeprecations/RecipeMetadata cop detects the usage of the recipe method in metadata.rb. This method was never used by Chef Infra and it has been deprecated. User-facing documentation, such as recipe descriptions, should instead be placed in the cookbook's README.md file.
Enabled by default: True
Autocorrects: Yes
ChefStyle/UsePlatformHelpers
The ChefStyle/UsePlatformHelpers cop detects the usage of node['platform] == 'foo' or node['platform_family] == 'bar' and instead suggests using platform?('foo') or platform_family?('bar'). These platform helpers help simplify platform check logic, especially when checking for multiple platforms as they accept more than one platform: platform?('foo', 'bar')
Enabled by default: True
Autocorrects: Yes
ChefModernize/CronManageResource
The ChefModernize/CronManageResource cop detects the usage of the cron_manage resource, which was renamed to cron_access when it was included in Chef Infra Client 14.4.

ChefModernize/DependsOnZypperCookbook
The ChefModernize/DependsOnZypperCookbook cop detects a cookbook that depends on the zypper cookbook. Chef Infra Client 13.3 and later include the zypper_repository resource, which was previously only available in the zypper cookbook.
Enabled by default: True

ChefModernize/ExecuteTzUtil
The ChefModernize/ExecuteTzUtil cop detects a cookbook that uses an execute resource to shell out to the tzutil.exe command. Chef Infra Client 14.6 and later ships with the timezone resource, which should be used instead of tzutil.
