Development repository for the msys2 cookbook

MSYS2 Cookbook

This cookbook will install MSYS2 and has LWRPs to interact with the MSYS2 environment.

This was built as an alternative for mingw that focuses moreso on the MSYS2 environment and allows you to utilize MSYS2 like a small UNIX environment within your Windows node.

Platform

• Windows

Recipes

• default: Will install MSYS2, optionally update all of the packages, and optionally install packages set in the attributes.

Resources

Bolded actions are the default actions.

• msys2_installer: Installs MSYS2.
  • :run: Installs MSYS2.
  • Configured with node['msys2']['install_dir'].
• msys2_package: Installs a package in MSYS2.
  • :install: Installs a package.
  • :remove: Removes a package.
• msys2_execute: Executes a command within the MSYS2 environment.
  • :run: Runs a command.
    • cwd: Runs the command from a different directory. Default directory is /.
    • returns: Checks the return value for success. Default successful return value is 0.
    • environment: A hash that contains environmental variables that should be set before execution.
    • live_stream: Outputs the command in execution as it runs.
    • sensitive: Prevents all output from being written out due to sensitive information.
    • msystem: Sets the MSYS2 environment to run the command from. Available values are :msys :mingw32 :mingw64.
• msys2_update: Updates all packages in MSYS2.
  • :run: Updates all packages in MSYS2.

Attributes

• node['msys2']['install_dir']: The directory to install MSYS2 to.
• node['msys2']['auto_update']: Will automatically update all packages when msys2::default is run.
• node['msys2']['packages']: Packages to assure are installed when msys2::default is run.
• node['msys2']['default_env']: The default MSYS2 environment to run commands in. Options include: :msys :mingw32 :mingw64.
• node['msys2']['verbose']: Makes all commands run verbose.
• node['msys2']['override_package']: Makes MSYS2 handle all package resources run on the Windows node.
• node['msys2']['override_execute']: Makes MSYS2 handle all execute resources run on the Windows node.

env[:HOME] can't modify frozen Hash

Hi looks I'm getting can't modify frozen object issue( see chef/chef#3734 for details)

Here is the client error output:

Error during msys2_update

I get the following error when running default recipe, with default attributes:

msys2_update("update MSYS2") do
  action [:run]
  retries 0
  retry_delay 2
  default_guard_interpreter :default
  declared_type :msys2_update
  cookbook_name :msys2
  recipe_name "default"
  only_if { #code block }
end

<snip>

STDERR: error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
 ---- End output of C:/msys64/usr/bin/bash.exe -l -c 'cd '/' && pacman --sync --sysupgrade --refresh --noconfirm --noprogressbar' ----
 Ran C:/msys64/usr/bin/bash.exe -l -c 'cd '/' && pacman --sync --sysupgrade --refresh --noconfirm --noprogressbar' returned 1

I believe the root cause is the same as mentioned in msys2/MSYS2-packages#1024, but after reading that issue, I'm none the wiser as to what a "fix", or workaround, could be.

Any ideas?
