Rbenv setup for system wide

Chef Infra (archive)
1

Thanks to your suggestions, I am going to use rbenv to manage my servers
system wide ruby and gems setup.

From the readme it seems to alude to using rbenv as dependancy to a
cookbook, but I want to setup a system wide (default) ruby and rubygems.

Does this mean I have to put this in my role_name.rb file? (I’m using
chef-solo).

My current base.rb is:

name 'base’
description 'base role that all nodes will have’
run_list “recipe[build-essential]”, “recipe[ohai]”, “recipe[runit]”,
“recipe[yum]”, “recipe[openssl]”, “recipe[git]”, “recipe[apt]”,
“recipe[java]”

So do I put rbenv related code in here like:

depends 'rbenv'

include_recipe "rbenv::default"
include_recipe "rbenv::ruby_build"

rbenv_ruby "1.9.3-p194"

rbenv_gem "bundler" do
  ruby_version "1.9.3-p194"
end

How can I create a list of gems I want pre-installed for default ruby to be
able to access?

2

Create a cookbook "myorg_system_wide_ruby" and add the rbenv 'related
code' you mentioned in there.

depends goes into metadata.rb, the rest in a recipe

AJ

Oh, as for gems: toss 'em in an attribute, map the attribute into
gem_package resources after rbenv is installed and activated so that
gem_package goes to the correct VM.

thanks, looks like I got most of it.

  1. How do I set it as global (system wide, not user specific?):
    default.rb:

include_recipe "rbenv::default"
include_recipe "rbenv::ruby_build"

rbenv_ruby "1.9.3-p194"

After my chef-solo ran, I get this when doing: ruby

rbenv: ruby: command not found

The `ruby' command exists in these Ruby versions:
1.9.3-p194

  1. if I want to install more gems, I have to keep repeating this or like
    you said put it in a each loop right?

rbenv_gem "bundler" do
ruby_version "1.9.3-p194"
end

rbenv_gem "rubygems" do
ruby_version "1.9.3-p194"
end

You'll want 'recipe[rbenv::system_install]' and any appropriate $PATH
modifications via /etc/profile.d -- can be a file/contents; make use
of the LWRP 'rbenv_global' [0]

As I mentioned previously, a node attribute hash-map like this suits:

node.default['my_org_rbenv']['system_rubygems']['1.9.3-p194'] = {
bundler: {
version: '1.2.3',
action: 'install',
}
}

system_ruby_version = node['my_org_rbenv']['system_ruby_version']

rbenv_global system_ruby_version

node['my_org_rbenv']['system_rubygems'][system_ruby_version].each do
|gem, params|
rbenv_gem gem do
rbenv_version systemruby
version params['version']
action params['action'].to_sym
end
end

Note that this only reduces repetition and is not required at all.

Ok let me start over here, I was using another rbenv that is differrent
from fnichol's cookbook.

In my cookbooks I have rbenv (fnichols) and ruby_build (also fnichols), I
just downloaded the zip and put it in my /cookbooks (is that ok or do I
have to build it?)

/cookbook/rbenv
/cookbook/ruby_build

  1. base.rb role:

run_list ... "recipe[ruby_build]", "recipe[my_ruby]"

  1. my_ruby

metadata.rb:

depends "rbenv"

recipes/default.rb:

include_recipe "rbenv::system"
include_recipe "rbenv::ruby_build"

rbenv_ruby "1.9.3" do
ruby_version "1.9.3-p194"
global true
end

rbenv_gem "bundler" do
ruby_version "1.9.3-p194"
end

rbenv_gem "rubygems" do
ruby_version "1.9.3-p194"
end

Now when I run it I get this error:

2013-02-24T22:16:51+00:00] FATAL: Chef::Exceptions::RecipeNotFound: could
not find recipe ruby_build for cookbook rbenv

I built a test cookbook to try to figure this out. It works for me --

You don't need to use the ruby_build_ruby LWRP, the functionality is
included in the rbenv LWRPs but is extended by the existence of the
ruby_build cookbook.

Be sure to inspect the Berksfile (it refers to git versions of
Fletcher's cookbooks, not sure if these are required), and also the
metadata and default recipe of 'system_wide_rbenv'. [1]

From the readme it seems to alude to using rbenv as dependancy to a

Does this mean I have to put this in my role_name.rb file? (I'm

My current base.rb is:

Ok let me start over here, I was using another rbenv that is differrent
from fnichol's cookbook.

In my cookbooks I have rbenv (fnichols) and ruby_build (also
fnichols), I
just downloaded the zip and put it in my /cookbooks (is that ok or do
I have
to build it?)

/cookbook/rbenv
/cookbook/ruby_build

  1. base.rb role:

run_list ... "recipe[ruby_build]", "recipe[my_ruby]"

  1. my_ruby

metadata.rb:

depends "rbenv"

recipes/default.rb:

include_recipe "rbenv::system"
include_recipe "rbenv::ruby_build"

rbenv_ruby "1.9.3" do
ruby_version "1.9.3-p194"
global true
end

rbenv_gem "bundler" do
ruby_version "1.9.3-p194"
end

rbenv_gem "rubygems" do
ruby_version "1.9.3-p194"
end

Now when I run it I get this error:

2013-02-24T22:16:51+00:00] FATAL: Chef::Exceptions::RecipeNotFound:
could
not find recipe ruby_build for cookbook rbenv

You'll want 'recipe[rbenv::system_install]' and any appropriate $PATH

As I mentioned previously, a node attribute hash-map like this suits:

node.default['my_org_rbenv']['system_rubygems']['1.9.3-p194'] = {
bundler: {
version: '1.2.3',
action: 'install',
}
}

system_ruby_version = node['my_org_rbenv']['system_ruby_version']

rbenv_global system_ruby_version

node['my_org_rbenv']['system_rubygems'][system_ruby_version].each do
|gem, params|
rbenv_gem gem do
rbenv_version systemruby
version params['version']
action params['action'].to_sym
end
end

Note that this only reduces repetition and is not required at all.

thanks, looks like I got most of it.

  1. How do I set it as global (system wide, not user specific?):
    default.rb:

include_recipe "rbenv::default"
include_recipe "rbenv::ruby_build"

rbenv_ruby "1.9.3-p194"

After my chef-solo ran, I get this when doing: ruby

rbenv: ruby: command not found

The `ruby' command exists in these Ruby versions:
1.9.3-p194

  1. if I want to install more gems, I have to keep repeating this or
    like you
    said put it in a each loop right?

rbenv_gem "bundler" do
ruby_version "1.9.3-p194"
end

rbenv_gem "rubygems" do
ruby_version "1.9.3-p194"
end

Oh, as for gems: toss 'em in an attribute, map the attribute into
gem_package resources after rbenv is installed and activated so
that
gem_package goes to the correct VM.

Create a cookbook "myorg_system_wide_ruby" and add the rbenv
'related
code' you mentioned in there.

depends goes into metadata.rb, the rest in a recipe

Thanks to your suggestions, I am going to use rbenv to manage my
servers
system wide ruby and gems setup.

From the readme it seems to alude to using rbenv as dependancy
to a
cookbook, but I want to setup a system wide (default) ruby and
rubygems.

Does this mean I have to put this in my role_name.rb file? (I'm
using
chef-solo).

My current base.rb is:

name 'base'
description 'base role that all nodes will have'
run_list "recipe[build-essential]", "recipe[ohai]",
"recipe[runit]",
"recipe[yum]", "recipe[openssl]", "recipe[git]", "recipe[apt]",
"recipe[java]"

So do I put rbenv related code in here like:

depends 'rbenv'

include_recipe "rbenv::default"
include_recipe "rbenv::ruby_build"

rbenv_ruby "1.9.3-p194"

rbenv_gem "bundler" do
  ruby_version "1.9.3-p194"
end

How can I create a list of gems I want pre-installed for default
ruby
to be
able to access?
