node[‘chef_client’][‘cron’][‘minute’] - The minute that chef-client will run as a cron task. See cron recipe
node[‘chef_client’][‘cron’][‘hour’] - The hour that chef-client will run as a cron task. See cron recipe
node[‘chef_client’][‘cron’][‘weekday’] - The weekday that chef-client will run as a cron task. See cron recipe
How can i use these attributes in my own cookbook
??
I’d suggest reading up on the wrapper cookbook pattern. There is a nice post about that on the Chef Blog.
in your cookbook:
in metadata.rb use depends
depends 'chef-client'
**in your recipe use**
include_recipe 'chef-client::default'
**in your attribute file**
default[‘chef_client’][‘cron’][‘minute’] = 'xxx'
default[‘chef_client’][‘cron’][‘hour’] = 'xxx'
default[‘chef_client’][‘cron’][‘weekday’] = 'xxx'
