Configuring Endpoints

You may configure the endpoints to index by editing the JSON configuration file (default: #{ENV['HOME']}/.berkshelf/api-server/config.json).

Opscode Community Site

{
  "endpoints": [
    {
      "type": "opscode",
      "options": {
        "url": "http://cookbooks.opscode.com/api/v1"
      }
    }
  ]
}
```

### Chef Server

```json
{
  "endpoints": [
    {
      "type": "chef_server",
      "options": {
        "url": "https://api.opscode.com/organizations/vialstudios",
        "client_name": "berkshelf",
        "client_key": "/etc/berkshelf/api-server/client.pem"
      }
    }
  ]
}
```

### Github Organization

Github limits the rate of requests to their API if not authenticated. For this reason the access_token option
is required. The api_endpoint, web_endpoint and ssl_verify options are only needed when you want to point to
a Github Enterprise server within your own organization

```json
{
  "endpoints": [
    {
      "type": "github",
      "options": {
        "organization": "opscode-cookbooks",
        "access_token": "",
        "api_endpoint": "https://github.enterprise.local/api/v3",
        "web_endpoint": "https://github.enterprise.local",
        "ssl_verify": true
      }
    }
  ]
}
```

### FileStore directory

A local directory containing cookbooks.

```json
{
  "endpoints": [
    {
      "type": "file_store",
      "options": {
        "path": "/Users/chef/code/cookbooks"
      }
    }
  ]
}
```
