3 - A developer of both the server and the cookbook (so someone who wants to grab the latest code from source control)

Getting Started

The first order of business is to install Virtual Box.

Once you have that up and running, the next thing you'll need is Berkshelf.

Besure to follow the vagrant-berkshelf section on that page.

Once you have all that set up, git clone this repo then you should be able to vagrant up within that directory and you'll have a running copy of the Conqueso service.

To actually use the cookbook, you should just need to to use the wrapper type pattern by just using an import and overriding any attributes you need to change from the base cookbook.

Example

#in your recipe you can define these:
include_recipe "conqueso-chef"
node.set["conqueso"]["db"]["host"] = "your db host here"
node.set["conqueso"]["db"]["user"] = "your db user name here"
node.set["conqueso"]["db"]["password"] = "your db password here"
