All cookbooks should be placed in cookbooks folder.
[root@box-16039 cookbooks]# pwd
/root/cookbooks
[root@box-16039 cookbooks]# cat config.rb
local_mode true cookbook_path [ '/root/cookbooks' ]
Create cookbook in subfolder:
[root@box-16039 vpsdeploy]# pwd
/root/cookbooks/vpsdeploy
[root@box-16039 vpsdeploy]# ls
Berksfile chefignore files LICENSE metadata.rb README.md recipes spec test vpsdeploy.json
[root@box-16039 cookbooks]# cat vpsdeploy/vpsdeploy.json
Create json file with cookbooks runlist (in JSON format)
{"run_list": ["recipe[vpsdeploy::default]"]}
Run recipe with following parameters:
chef-client -j ~/cookbooks/vpsdeploy/vpsdeploy.json --local-mode
If needed add in metadata.rb of the main cookbook dependencies:
depends 'mysql', '~> 8.0'
And place cookbooks in ~/cookbooks folder.
