Simple and lightweight configuration management tool inspired by Chef.

• CHANGELOG

Concept

• Chef-like DSL (but not compatible with Chef)
• Simpler and lighter weight than Chef
• Only recipes
• Idempotent

Installation

$ gem install itamae

Getting Started

Create a recipe file as recipe.rb:

package 'nginx' do
  action :install
end

service 'nginx' do
  action [:enable, :start]
end

And then execute itamae command to apply a recipe to a local machine.

$ itamae local recipe.rb
 INFO : Starting Itamae...
 INFO : Recipe: /home/user/recipe.rb
 INFO :    package[nginx]
 INFO :       action: install
 INFO :          installed will change from 'false' to 'true'
 INFO :    service[nginx]
 INFO :       action: enable
 INFO :       action: start

Or you can apply a recipe to a remote machine by itamae ssh.

$ itamae ssh --host host001.example.jp recipe.rb

You can also apply a recipe to Vagrant VM by itamae ssh --vagrant.

$ itamae ssh --vagrant --host vm_name recipe.rb

You can find further information to use Itamae on Itamae Wiki.

Enjoy!
