Hello all,
I had recently dug myself into using libraries and wondered if anyone
had a way to make it work in templates?
I was looking at http://wiki.opscode.com/display/chef/Libraries and
noticed it did not mention the word templates,
so I whipped up something like this,
all_vhosts do |name, info|
template “/etc/nginx/sites-available/#{name}.conf” do
source "default-site.erb"
owner "www-data"
group "www-data"
mode 0644
variables(
name => name
)
end
end
I can’t seem to obviously get name to iterate properly? (not sure if
that’s the right word) but @name never appears in the template, as a
simple <%= @name %> shows zilch.
Obviously this works super clean and awesome in 1/2 of my recipe, but
I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on the last part of this
hurdle? I’m sure it’s something I’ve overlooked but I’d love a hint/
pointer/etc?
Thanks
Sincerely,
Scott M. Likens
Cancel this.
Got it all straightened out.

Hi Adam,
actually it was just me being tired and screwing up, but I finally
wrangled it.
all_vhosts do |name, info|
template "#{node[:affnginx][:dir]}/sites-available/#{name}.conf" do
source "default-site.erb"
owner "root"
group "root"
backup false
mode 0644
variables(
:name => name,
:ipaddress => info[:ipaddress],
:networkid => info[:networkid]
)
end
end
Works just fine, and as far as my limited testing (it's pulling in 5
vhosts via attributes) just fine. I may find a great use for
libraries now with nginx and apache and will find a way to enjoy this
ability greatly.
Scott
(mainly the error was in the variables the lack of : in :name
initially which threw me off and confused me... tunnel vision is a
great thing sometimes, and fun to break out of)
