ipaddr_extensions

Adds the ipaddr_extensions gem to chef using the chef_gem provider. This adds a top-level ohai attribute called privateaddress. If there is an RFC1918 IP address, this is assigned to node.privateaddress.

Usage

Include ipaddr_extensions in your Berksfile or Cheffile:

cookbook 'ipaddr_extensions'

Include ipaddr_extensions in your node's run_list:

{
  "name":"my_node",
  "run_list": [
    "recipe[ipaddr_extensions]"
  ]
}

If a cookbook depends on knowing about private ip addresses, depend or suggest this cookbook.

include_recipe 'ipaddr_extensions'

Warning

This cookbook does terrible things that should never ever be done in Chef, nor in Ruby for that matter. It should only do this once, after which the ipaddr_extensions gem will be installed and working. There are so many reasons this could go wrong, though.

Running tests

This cookbook runs assertions as a part of a fake cookbook using test-kitchen.

bundle
bundle exec kitchen converge

The test suite depends on network bridging in vagrant. This requires an exact match of the interface name in order to work. If you run into trouble, temporarily change .kitchen.yml#L12 to match the name of your ethernet adapter.
