Parameters:

  • bag (String, Symbol) —

    the name of the data bag to find the item in

stubbing a node based on a JSON fixture

stub_node('mynode.example', path: File.join('fixtures', 'nodes', 'default.json'))

setting specific attributes

stub_node('mynode.example') do |node|
  node.default['attribute']['thing'] = 'value'
end

Parameters:

  • name (String) —

def stub_node(*args, &block)
  options = args.last.is_a?(Hash) ? args.pop : {}
  name    = args.first || "node.example"

  fauxhai = Fauxhai.mock(options).data
  fauxhai = fauxhai.merge(options[:ohai] || {})
  fauxhai = Mash.new(fauxhai)

  node = Chef::Node.new
  node.name(name)
  node.automatic_attrs = fauxhai
  node.instance_eval(&block) if block_given?
  node

#stub_search(type, query = "*:*", &block) ⇒ ChefSpec::SearchStub

Stub a Chef search to return pre-defined data. When providing a value, the value is automatically mashified (to the best of ChefSpec’s abilities) to ease in use.

Examples:

stubbing a search to return nothing

stub_search(:node)

stubbing a search with a query

stub_search(:node, 'name:*')

stubbing a search with a query as a regex

stub_search(:node, /name:(.+)/)

stubbing a search with a block that is evaluated at runtime

stub_search(:node) { JSON.parse(File.read('fixtures/nodes.json')) }

stubbing a search to return a fixed value

stub_search(:node).and_return([ { a: 'b' } ])

stubbing a search to raise an exception

stub_search(:node).and_raise(Chef::Exceptions::PrivateKeyMissing)

Parameters:

  • type (String, Symbol) —

    the type to search to stub

  • query (String, Symbol, nil) (defaults to: "*:*") —

    the query to stub

Returns:

  • (ChefSpec::SearchStub)
