I simply rolled my own, since for the most part this is just repository setup, package installation and including other recipes (at least for me). Here is an exerpt of what I"m using (most of the recipes referenced at the bottom are my own).
Obviously, this one only works for RedHat-like systems, but hopefully it may be a starting point for you!
dropbox_Base = value_for_platform(
%w{ centos redhat } => {
“7.0” => ‘http://linux.dropbox.com/fedora/19’,
“default” => ‘http://linux.dropbox.com/fedora/12’
},
“default” => { “default” => ‘’ }
)
yum_repository “Dropbox” do
description "Dropbox Repository"
enabled true
skip_if_unavailable true
gpgcheck true
baseurl dropbox_Base
gpgkey "https://linux.dropbox.com/fedora/rpm-public-key.asc"
end
yum_repository “tor” do
description "Tor experimental repo"
baseurl "http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org/rpm/el/$releasever/$basearch/"
enabled true
gpgcheck true
skip_if_unavailable true
gpgkey 'http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org/rpm/RPM-GPG-KEY-torproject.org.asc’
end
ownCloud_Base = value_for_platform(
%w{ centos redhat } => {
“7.0” => ‘http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/isv:/ownCloud:/desktop/CentOS_7/’,
“default” => ‘http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/isv:/ownCloud:/desktop/CentOS_CentOS-6/’
},
“default” => { “default” => ‘’ }
)
yum_repository “isv_ownCloud_desktop” do
description 'Owncloud Client Repository’
baseurl ownCloud_Base
enabled true
gpgcheck true
gpgkey "#{ownCloud_Base}/repodata/repomd.xml.key"
end
yum_repository “virtualbox” do
description 'Oracle Linux / RHEL / CentOS-$releasever / $basearch - VirtualBox’
baseurl 'http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/rpm/el/$releasever/$basearch’
enabled true
gpgcheck true
gpgkey 'https://www.virtualbox.org/download/oracle_vbox.asc’
end
include_recipe(“nctc-bacula::console”)
include_recipe(“shorewall-lite::admin”)
include_recipe(“chef-dk”)
include_recipe(“kvm::client”)
include_recipe(“chrome”)

Subject: [chef] Linux version of adamedx/winbox or nordstrom/chefdk-bootstrap
Does anyone know if there are (not sure of the chef term)(environments?) like the above for *nix? Trying to find a good example of setting up a desktop / workstation with chef. My goal is to be able to test different distros + plus freebsd on my test laptop, but have it so that I install base system, then run chef-client and it pulls all the dev-tools, plus other apps that I want. I know the focus is on server side, but automating workstations is my goal.
Thank you,
Alex Thomas
