This cookbook installs, configures and manages as a service New Relic Plugins on Debian/RHEL.

To use the cookbook, add it to your Chef cookbooks path under the name `newrelic_plugins`.

Recipes for the following plugins are provided:

- [AWS Cloudwatch](#aws-cloudwatch-plugin)
- [Example (Ruby)](#example-plugin)
- [F5](#f-plugin)
- [Memcached - Java](#memcached-java)
- [Memcached - Ruby](#memcached-ruby)
- [MySQL](#mysql-plugin)
- [Rackspace Load Balancers](#rackspace-load-balancers-plugin)
- [Wikipedia Example Java](#wikipedia-example-java-plugin)
- [Wikipedia Example Ruby](#wikipedia-example-ruby-plugin)

## Requirements ##

Chef 0.10.10+ and Ohai 6.10+ for `platform_family` support.

The AWS Cloudwatch, Example, F5, Memcached (Ruby), Rackspace Load Balancers, and Wikipedia Example (Ruby) plugins require:

- Ruby >= 1.8.7
- Rubygems >= 1.8

The MySQL, Memcached (Java) and Wikipedia Example (Java) plugins require:
