Usage instructions about zookeeper-cookbook

Yeah, this is a bug I think. We'll need to add a depends on runit in the metadata and include_recipe 'runit::default' in the service recipe. This is actually slightly tricky because I believeeee adding that recipe would break our use case internally (not sure though), since when we set up the service we have some network restrictions that might prevent runit::default from being able to work. I'll get a PR going by Tuesday.

Cool. Is there a workaround i could use?

Yep. If you include_recipe 'runit::default' anytime before you call the service recipe, you're good to go.

Worked like a charm. I think the best resolution for this is to define this cookbook as one that needs to be wrapped, and having doco about how to install it as a service. While at it, doco on installing Exhibitor would be nice to have too!

[synhershko]

Other items I'm missing docs for (not Chef / ruby expert) is how / where to set ZK's myid (if at all?), how to point it at fellow ensemble members, and how to use discover_zookeepers from other cookbooks (if it's still around at all?)

👍 for more docs. This is definitely a cookbook meant for wrapping, along with the exhibitor cookbook.

[jakedavis]

Yo PRs accepted :) nah but I can try to work on this hopefully in the next couple of days. It definitely could use some improvements to the docs.

@jakedavis I'd be happy to help out, but currently grinding on some Archiva stuff

[jeffbyrnes]

Closing, as the README is pretty well-fleshed out now.
