[chef-dev] Managing services with Chef: poise-service

[Noah Kantrowitz < >]

Hi all, I wrote a thing to make managing services with Chef easier and to 
allow library cookbooks to stop hard-wiring specific init systems:

https://github.com/poise/poise-service#what-is-poise-service

Would love some feedback on the design and documentation, especially if there 
are major use cases I've overlooked.


If you are interested in trying it out locally (in test-kitchen for example) 
before the 1.0 release you can add the following to your Gemfile:

    gem 'halite', github: 'coderanger/halite'
    gem 'poise', github: 'poise/poise'
    gem 'poise-boiler', github: 'poise/poise-boiler'

And then this to your Berksfile:

    extension 'halite'
    cookbook 'poise', gem: 'poise'
    cookbook 'poise-service', gem: 'poise-service'

If anyone has any questions or comments please feel free to contact me 
directly!
