QUESTION

PyChef - Is there REST API to get chef-client runs

Asked 2019-Oct-03 at 07:08

I am trying to pull chef-client runs details. We are using PyChef currently and able to get information on the list of nodes connected with the Chef Server and its corresponding run_list. Is there an option in PyChef to get information on the client runs (start time, end time, status of the run, etc)

Used the following code:

By default Chef Server does not save that information. It is part of the older Chef Reporting commercial addon and the newer Chef Automate system. As I've never used either, there is no direct API support for those in PyChef but you can always use the raw API object to make simple requests yourself. For example, looking at https://docs.chef.io/api_reporting.html#reports-nodes-node-runs you could use api['/reports/nodes/foo.example.com/runs'] to get a list of the run IDs for that node.

QUESTION

pyChef: How do I disable SSL verification using chef.autoconfigure()

Asked 2018-Jan-23 at 20:30

I'd like to start using pyChef but my dev environment has a self-signed certificate, so I keep getting an SSL error due to 'SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED'.

I see that chef.ChefAPI allows for ssl_verify=False, but does not work when using within chef.autoconfigure(). Can I auto-configure ssl verification?

I would like to make this script require no manual configuration from the user, how do I disable SSL verification using chef.autoconfigure(), or do I need to still need to call chef.ChefAPI on each query (or set default) and disable it there?

Maybe there are potential workarounds in Python as well to call the cert?

I didn't make that easy since I think disabling TLS should be an absolute last resort. If you're using a self-signed cert, you can do the normal thing of setting the $SSL_CERT_FILE environment variable to the certificate path. But if you must:
