About authentication

As long as your ID remains signed in with the Chef server you'll be able to reauth with Supermarket just by connecting with ... (session id?)

URL for logout, https://supermarket-0.c.cheffian-supermarket.internal/id, is 404. Where you want to go is: https://chefserver/id

Actually, I can't seem to sign-out at all. Bug?

Upload a cookbook from command-line

Install/configure knife supermarket

The documentation in the README at https://github.com/cwebberOps/knife-supermarket is pretty good, so go read that and come back.

Now try:

knife supermarket list

should be nothing back

Try uploading a cookbook, and you'll get:

ERROR: Error uploading cookbook fetch_json_data to the Opscode Cookbook Site: lexical error: invalid char in json text.
                               <html>  <head><title>301 Moved
             (right here) ------^

Why? Because we're not authenticating as the correct user.

You can get the user.pem from the user-creation step, earlier, by downloading from the chefserver to a local .chef directory, and accessing with a knife.rb such as:

current_dir = File.dirname(__FILE__)
node_name                "pdb"   # the username setup with chef-server-ctl user-create
client_key               "#{current_dir}/pdb.pem" # The key created by user-create subcommand
chef_server_url          "https://chefserver/organizations/pdb_chef12_org" # The org created by chef-server-ctl org-create
ssl_verify_mode          :verify_none
knife[:supermarket_site] = 'https://supermarket-0.c.cheffian-supermarket.internal' # Note FQDN and HTTPS

Now you can test knife supermarket:

mkdir ./cookbooks
chef generate cookbook cookbooks/test_cookbook
knife supermarket share test_cookbook -o ./cookbooks -c .chef/knife.rb

Keys with Manage

An alternative to the above key fetch from chef-server:

sudo chef-server-ctl install opscode-manage
sudo opscode-manage-ctl reconfigure
sudo chef-server-ctl reconfigure

Then, for your user, generate/download the starter kit

Local development

So, you have a cookbook in supermarket. Now what? We'll want to use that cookbook as a dependency

cd cookbooks
chef generate dev_cookbook
cd dev_cookbook

Now, change Berksfile first line from:

source "https://supermarket.chef.io"

to:

source 'http://chefserver-0.c.cheffian-supermarket.internal'  # This only works since I have /etc/hosts hacked

and add to metadata.rb:

depends 'test_cookbook'

Now test with:

berks vendor

Now fails with SSL errors

notes

"chef": { "node_name": "pdb", "client_key": "/Users/pburkholder/Hack/supermetal/.chef/pdb.pem" }
