yum-influxdb Cookbook

The yum-influxdb cookbook takes over management of the default repositoryids used with the official influxdb repositories. It allows attribute manipulation of the influxdb yum channel.

Requirements

• Chef 11+
• yum version 3.2.0 or higher

Platforms

• Fedora and RHEL based distributions (RHEL, CentOS, and Scientific Linux) are supported

Attributes

The following attributes are set by default

default['yum']['influxdb']['description'] = 'InfluxDB Repository - CentOS'
default['yum']['influxdb']['baseurl'] = "https://repos.influxdata.com/#{platform_family}/$releasever/$basearch/stable"
default['yum']['influxdb']['gpgkey'] = 'https://repos.influxdata.com/influxdb.key'
default['yum']['influxdb']['gpgcheck'] = true
default['yum']['influxdb']['enabled'] = true
default['yum']['influxdb']['managed'] = true

Recipes

• default - Walks through node attributes and feeds a yum_resource
• parameters. The following is an example a resource generated by the
• recipe during compilation.

  yum_repository 'influxdb' do
    baseurl 'https://repos.influxdata.com/centos/$releasever/$basearch/stable'
    description 'InfluxDB Repository - CentOS'
    enabled true
    gpgcheck true
    gpgkey 'https://repos.influxdata.com/influxdb.key'
  end

Usage Example

To disable the influxdb repository through a Role or Environment definition

default_attributes(
  :yum => {
    :influxdb => {
      :enabled => {
        false
       }
     }
   }
 )

To enable the influxdb repository with a wrapper cookbook, place the following in a recipe:

node.default['yum']['influxdb']['enabled'] = true
include_recipe 'yum-influxdb'

More Examples

Point the base and updates repositories at an internally hosted server.

node.default['yum']['influxdb']['enabled'] = true
node.default['yum']['influxdb']['mirrorlist'] = nil
node.default['yum']['influxdb']['baseurl'] = 'https://internal.example.com/influxdb/6/os/x86_64'
node.default['yum']['influxdb']['sslverify'] = false

include_recipe 'yum-influxdb'
