Aha! I was able to remove users idempotently using ignore_failure, which is one of the common attribute that can be set on any resource. I do still see an error such as this in stdout, but it's ignored and the chef-solo run continues:
ERROR: user_account[deleteme] (blueprint::default line 42) had an error: can't find user for deleteme
Example recipe code from my own blueprint
cookbook, which depends on the user
cookbook, so that I can use the user_account
resource:
# Search data_bags/accounts/*.json for users to remove
remove_accounts = search(:users, "(action:remove)")
remove_accounts.each do |u|
username = u['username'] || u['id']
user_account username do
action :remove
# Idempotent in case the user is already removed.
ignore_failure true
end
end

Looks like @atz had a great solution in #16 so that should close this out, woo!
