# Chef IRC Snitch

Chef IRC Snitch is an OpsCode Chef exception handler for notifying

people when a Chef run fails via IRC; providing a link to a private

GitHub Gist containing node information, an exception message, and a

backtrace. The IRC message also includes the node name and its run

list, making it possible to sift/search through logs for a specific

failure. Using GitHub Gists to store failure information provides a

convenient way to share with others.

## Installation

    gem install chef-irc-snitch

## Usage

Append the following to your Chef client configs, usually at `/etc/chef/client.rb`

    # Notify admins via IRC when a Chef run fails

    require "chef-irc-snitch"

    irc_uri = "irc://nick:[email protected]:6667/#admins"

    enable_ssl = true

    irc_handler = IRCSnitch.new(irc_uri, enable_ssl)

    exception_handlers << irc_handler

Alternatively, you can use the LWRP (available @

http://community.opscode.com/cookbooks/chef_handler)
