speak for other distros

You're not running into the problem of conflicting OpenSSL versions (i.e.
COOK-1406)? What I meant was installing a different libpsql for omnibus so
using chef_gem will work if the system OpenSSL or other libraries are not
ABI compatible with the versions in the omnibus install.

tks for your feedback Greg. I do intend to leave ark functioning as it
currently does for simple download-unpack-link tasks
the chef_gem already installs libraries into the omnibus location. I
use that to install the pg gem

leveraged to do installs of libraries into the omnibus location for
things
like, for example, the pg gem. It would probably be nice to leave ark
available as a standalone resource for things that don't have a build
step... it doesn't make a lot of sense to use a "build" resource to
download
and unzip an archive.

Ark is getting a bit too hairy as I try to stuff more and more
functionality into it. The current Ark cookbook also has issues w/
idempotency that need to be addressed. I am thinking about creating a
new LWRP "build" for which ark is just a component. Tks to erik
hollensbe for suggesting the name "build". the main idea is that build
has sub-resources like configure, make, python, ant, etc. that each
take their block
Here is the DSL that I have in mind. If this is a frankenstein, pls tell
me
build "collectd"
# this would call the ark provider in the build provider
ark do
url "http://...";
checksum "asdfasdf"
end
configure do # won't run if "config.status" file exists
flags [ "--enable-python", "--enable-jvm" ]
prefix "/opt"
end
make do
env [ "OS=linux" ]
creates 'bin/collectd'
end
make "install" do
creates "/usr/sbin/collectd"
end
end
easier to extend and more composable, you could even use it w/out ark
to grab and deposit the files and build could be extended to use
additional build tools like ant, cmake, scons, etc.
bash "untar files" do
code <<EOF
wget http://example.com/foobar.tar.gz -O /tmp/foobar
tar xvzf /tmp/foobar.tar.gz -C /opt
EOF
end
build "foobar" do
cmake do
flags [ "--with-cracklib", "--with-postgres" ]
creates "bin/foobar"
end
cmake "install" do
creates "bin/foobar"
end
end
end
one of the downsides is that this will require a good amount of work
on my side, something I was hoping to avoid
I also need to balance this new dsl w/ the efficacy of the current ark
lwrp, which is really succinct for simple tasks. Perhaps I could do
this by leaving ark as a separate class but then creating a subclass
in Build::Ark. just an idea
feedback would be most appreciated!
