# capstrap (Abandoned)

## Notice

**This project has fallen out of use by the author and thus exists in an abandoned state.**

A command to remotely install git, rvm, ruby, and chef-solo using capistrano.

To get started, install capstrap:

gem install capstrap

capstrap assumes you are operating as *root* so you might want to drop in
your ssh key to root's *authorized_keys*:

ssh root@zland '(if [ ! -d "${HOME}/.ssh" ]; then \
mkdir -m 0700 -p ${HOME}/.ssh; fi; \
cat - >> .ssh/authorized_keys)' < ${HOME}/.ssh/id_dsa.pub

To install a baseline RVM/ruby environment (*ree-1.8.7* is default):

capstrap ruby root@zland

To use a custom RVM ruby:

capstrap ruby root@zland --ruby=ruby-1.8.7

To install the *chef* gem:

capstrap chef root@zland

To install a chef cookbooks repository and chef configuration:

capstrap solo root@zland \
--cookbooks-repo=git://github.com/fnichol/chef-repo.git \
--config-repo=git://github.com/fnichol/chef-dna-spike.git

To override the default cookbooks and configuration paths:

capstrap solo root@zland \
--cookbooks-repo=git://github.com/fnichol/chef-repo.git \
--cookbooks-path=/opt/chef \
--config-repo=git://github.com/fnichol/chef-dna-spike.git \
--config-path=/opt/chef/config

To use a rake update instead of the default
git submodule init && git submodule update after a git update:

capstrap execute root@zland \
--cookbooks-rake-update \
--config-rake-update

To execute a chef configuration (the full monty):

capstrap execute root@zland \
--cookbooks-repo=git://github.com/fnichol/chef-repo.git \
--config-repo=git://github.com/fnichol/chef-dna-spike.git

To set some other crazy configuration (the full monty with cheese):

capstrap execute root@zland \
--ruby=ruby-1.8.7 \
--cookbooks-repo=git://github.com/fnichol/chef-repo.git \
--cookbooks-path=/opt/chef \
--config-repo=git://github.com/fnichol/chef-dna-spike.git \
--config-path=/opt/chef/config

To pull new cookbook/configuration updates and run chef-solo:

capstrap update root@zland

To save config options to a yaml file to be read by capstrap:

cat > "$HOME/.capstraprc" <
