Chef recipe 'include_recipe' takes precedence over other code and resources

QUESTION

Chef recipe 'include_recipe' takes precedence over other code and resources

Asked 2019-Oct-14 at 23:49

I'm attempting to create a Chef cookbook that, for now, is mostly just a wrapper cookbook for another cookbook (the audit cookbook). I'm still learning Chef, but from what I can gather from the About Recipes documentation and the Resources Reference documentation, Chef recipes should execute in the order that they're defined (via Ruby code and/or Chef resources).

In the About Recipes documentation, it mentions that

When a recipe is included, the resources found in that recipe will be inserted (in the same exact order) at the point where the include_recipe keyword is located.

In the Resources Reference documentation, they have an apt_update resource that presumably executes before the include_recipe method due to the fact that it's defined earlier in the recipe.

My wrapper cookbook has a single recipe, default.rb, which is literally these two lines:

if you would examine the audit::inspec rescipe, you will find that it uses a compile time installation of the inspec rubygem (see the last line)

QUESTION

How to stage, develop, and test changes to the chef repo

Asked 2017-Jul-17 at 18:27

I wanted to ask what the best practice, and what is commonly done for testing and developing changes to cookbooks,environments,nodes, essentially the chef repo. Reason I ask this, is the current setup has one chef server. All environments (staging, beta, prod) use this server and have all the relevant info pulled from here.

However, when I want to make a change to a cookbook and test it on one of our staging environments...it pulls from this repo and I either have to make a mess of configuration changes or...upload a cookbook with a different name, test, and then proceed to rename my cookbook back to the original name. Far from efficient, and frustrating even.

I thought maybe I could have different git branches and somehow point them in different directions but it would still be pulling from the same repo I imagine..

My thought then was to simply have an entirely separate chef server dedicated for developing and testing, and point my staging environments to that chef server.

Not sure if there was another more simple way I was missing, thus why I'm asking the community.

This may seem related to another question I asked, but I hope the difference between these two questions is clear (How to update chef cookbooks in a developer workflow)

Chef has the notion of different environments: https://docs.chef.io/environments.html

You can have prod and staging environment files which have all relevant cookbooks pinned to a stable version.

Then when you make a change to your cookbook you should bump the version number and update the staging environment with the new version so you can test the changes there. I.e.
