Resources

poise_msys2

The poise_msys2 resource installs MSYS2. This is normally handled via the poise-msys2::default recipe but a customized recipe can be used instead.

poise_msys2 'C:/msys' do
  install_url 'https://mymirror.local/msys2-base-x86_64-20161025.tar.xz'
end

Actions

• :install – Install MSYS2. (default)
• :upgrade – Upgrade all MSYS2 system packages.
• :uninstall – Remove MSYS2.

Properties

• path – Root folder for the MSYS2 installation. (name attribute)
• install_url – RL template to download the MSYS2 installer archive. Must point at the tar.xz archive, not the executable installer. (required)
• install_version – Version of the MSYS2 installer to use. (default: '')

poise_msys2_execute

The poise_msys2_execute resource is like the core execute resource but runs the command in the MSYS2 environment.

poise_msys2_execute 'make' do
  cwd '/c/myapp'
end

Actions

• :run – Run the command. (default)

Properties

The poise_msys2_execute resource supports all the same properties as the core execute resource, which can be found in the Chef documentation.

poise_msys2_package

The poise_msys2_package resource manages packages in the MSYS2 environment using the included pacman package manager system.

poise_msys2_package 'nano' do
  action :upgrade
end

Actions

• :install – Install the package. (default)
• :upgrade – Upgrade the package.
• :remove – Uninstall the package.

Properties

The poise_msys2_package resource supports all the same properties as the core package resource, which can be found in the Chef documentation.

Upgrading From mingw

Upgrading from the mingw cookbook is relatively straightforward. Replace all usage of msys2_package resources with poise_msys2_package.
