Chef Sugar is being deprecated, this is the internal list of the TODO tasks

TASKS in order:

  • pull cloud.rb into core-chef
  • pull data_bag.rb into core-chef
  • pull run_context.rb into core-chef
  • pull vagrant.rb into core-chef
  • pull virtualization.rb into core-chef
  • deprecate ip.rb with no replacement (although maybe a new ohai attribute?)
  • deprecate kernel.rb with no replacement
  • deprecate node.rb with no replacement
  • deprecate ruby.rb with no replacement
  • determine what to do about filters.rb
  • determine what to do about remaining platform.rb
  • determine what to do about shell.rb
  • determine what to do about core_extensions

NOTES on files:

architecture.rb is COMPLETED

cloud.rb is COMPLETED

constraint.rb / constraint_dsl.rb tasks:

  • replace with Chef::VersionString objects

core_extensions

  • pile of monkeypatches that makes my eyes twitch a little bit. how much do we want to become activerecord? counter-argument is that some activerecord-ish helpers are SUUUPER useful. but we should probably copy them from activerecord since those are more likely to get pulled directly into core-chef.

data_bag

  • we should pull this into core-chef or something comparable (TBD)

docker.rb is COMPLETED

filters.rb tasks

  • incorporate the before/after syntax into the find_resource/edit_resource API (probably renamed, with deprecation done here)
  • deprecate the at_compile_time helper in favor of moving the compile_time true property into Chef::Resource directly

init.rb is COMPLETED

  • unless we get user complaints, runit is dead to us and this is done

ip.rb

  • needs to be deprecated with no replacement (could push this into another ohai attribute -- or have we done it already?)

kernel.rb (the require_chef_gem trivial helper)

  • needs to be deprecated with no replacement.

kitchen.rb is COMPLETED

node.rb (the method_missing syntax)

  • needs to be deprecated with no replacement.

platform.rb tasks:

  • decide what to do about the debian_before_squeeze platform version helpers.
  • decide what to do about the platform_version helper (can we wire this up to a Chef::VersionString object instead?)

platform_family.rb is COMPLETED

ruby.rb tasks:

  • needs to be deprecated with no replacement (nobody has used it since ruby 2.0, so its clearly not being used)

run_context.rb is COMPLETED

shell.rb: (collection of helpers including which)

  • TBD

vagrant.rb is COMPLETED

virtualization.rb is COMPLETED
