Generate a default attributes file in

.
Chef Development Kit:
$
chef generate attribute default
Chef Client:
$
touch attributes/default.rb
Add an attribute specifying the download URL for the Chef Server package that you ob-
tained from the Enterprise Chef download link page. We recommend using the 11.1.8 version
URL as shown in
Example 9-2
, as we wrote the examples for this chapter for this version of
Chef.

Let's take an initial stab at coding a recipe to replicate the manual steps to install Chef Server
outlined in
How to Install Enterprise Chef Server Manually
. Enter in the first version of the
code as shown in
Example 9-3
.
Let's go over some of the highlights of the code in the fol-
lowing paragraphs.
Rather than typing in long variable names like
node['enterprise-chef']['url']
, feel
free to use temporary local variables in a recipe with shorter names, such as:
package_url
=
node
[
'enterprise-chef'
][
'url'
