i have a bash code wherein it executes if few linux commands and also have if… else loop
After completion of bash resource I am calling include_recipe.
But now I want include_recipe to get called only for if loop in bash resource and skip if it goes to else loop
How can I achieve that?
are you using the execute resource ?
have a look at using guards in your recipes.
https://docs.chef.io/resource_common.html#guards
And example/snippet of you chef recipe is always useful
Hi,
No. I am not using execute resource. I am using bash resource in which I have if… else loop
after completing bash resource, I am running include_recipe
Now I want to run include_recipe <receipe 2> only if “if” part in bash resource is true and not for else loop
How can I do that?
snippet is herewith
bash ‘Host registration with server’ do
cwd node[‘local’][‘download_dir’]
sensitive true
user "root"
code <<-EOH
# Login to server
<<<< steps to login to to server and check IP address >>
if [ $? != 0 ]
then
<<< check if host IP is not present, then do registration>>
else
no action as IP is already present
fi
# Logout from server
./vmssc logout server
EOH
end
if node[‘guardPointsList’].strip != ""
include_recipe 'gde_client::addGPtoHost’
end
