Itamae::Template

Itamae template generator for roles and cookbooks, based on the Best Practice of Itamae.

Features

command	description
itamae-template init	Initialize repository to use cookbooks and roles
itamae-template g role [name]	Generate roles/[name]/default.rb
itamae-template g cookbook [name]	Generate cookbooks/[name]/default.rb
itamae-template d role [name]	Destroy roles/[name]/default.rb
itamae-template d cookbook [name]	Destroy cookbooks/[name]/default.rb

And you can include those recipes by include_cookbook or include_role.

Capistrano tasks

The initialized repository includes following capistrano tasks.

NOTE: Because itamae ssh is slow, itamae-template installs itamae remotely and execute recipes via itamae local.

command	description
cap itamae prepare	Install ruby to execute itamae remotely
cap itamae dry-run	Check what will be executed
cap itamae apply	Apply recipes

Installation

$ gem install itamae-template

Get started

This is a tutorial of itamae-template.

# Create repository to add itamae recipes.
$ mkdir infra
$ cd infra
$ git init

# Initialize itamae helpers.
$ gem install itamae-template
$ itamae-template init

# Specify hosts to provision. If you can ssh to the host by `ssh foo`,
# edit: `role :production, %w[foo]`
$ vim config/deploy.rb

# Install ruby and bundler to the production role, i.e. "foo" host.
# It will be installed to /opt/itamae/bin/ruby, not system-widely.
$ bundle install
$ bundle exec cap itamae prepare

# Test execution of the recipes.
$ bundle exec cap itamae dry-run

# Apply recipes. It just prints hello.
$ bundle exec cap itamae apply

Cookbook

# Drop hello cookbook.
$ itamae-template d cookbook hello

# Create new cookbook. "default.rb" will be loaded by
# `include_cookbook "nginx"`
$ itamae-template g cookbook nginx
$ vim cookbooks/nginx/default.rb
$ vim roles/production/default.rb

Role

# Create new role.
$ itamae-template g role staging
$ vim roles/staging/default.rb

# Specify hosts to apply staging recipes.
# Edit: `role :staging, %w[bar]`
$ vim config/deploy.rb

# Apply recipes only for staging by the capistrano way.
$ ROLES=staging bundle exec cap itamae apply

Shorthand

You can use :sushi: instead of itamae-template.

$ sushi init
$ sushi g role [name]
$ sushi g cookbook [name]
$ sushi d role [name]
$ sushi d cookbook [name]
