Description

dsh is a lwrp? for setting up dsh group files and mapping permissions between user accounts and administrative users to allow easy bootstrapping of distributed access to a group of nodes via dsh.

Resources/Providers

There's currently one provider, "group", which does all the heavy lifting.

group

The provider uses Chef's search functionality to discover and update the group and user mappings dsh makes use of. Mappings are between accounts on the host system and the the target systems.

Mappings

• Updates known_hosts on the host system with the target systems
• Updates authorized_keys on the target systems with every admin_user's public key

Attributes

• group: The dsh group name
• user: The user account to manipulate on the target systems
• admin_user: The admin user account on the host system
• admin_pubkey: (optional) The admin user's public SSH key
• network: (optional) An osops_utils-style network to use instead of the FQDN
• skip_create: An array of users to not create home directories for (defaults to ['root','nova','glance'])

Usage

dsh_group "testing" do user "test2" admin_user "test1" #provider "dsh_group" # default? end

user/admin_user also accept a hash of resource attributes

dsh_group "testing" do user :username => "test2", :uid => 2000, :comment = "Test User 2" admin_user "test1" end
