Pixel Cookbook

This cookbook prepares an Ubuntu 14.04 server for Pixel deployment. It installs the necessary packages and creates a user (complete with authorized_keys file) to use for deploying and running the application. I personally use Capistrano to deploy Pixel, and as soon as I figure out a good place for it I'll share my deploy.rb.

Requirements

• Only tested on Ubuntu 14.04
• You must create your own files/default/authorized_keys until I get around to making it an attribute or template.
• Requires the following cookbooks:
  • chef-rvm
  • apache2
  • logrotate

Usage

pixel::default

Just include pixel in your node's run_list:

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