having a data bag sort of goes against the way the current application cookbook is designed to work... seems like a step backwards, unfortunately.

Maybe you could have a databag with an item for each application, and the configuration of each app inside its item.

If I remember well the tomcat cookbook uses a databag to configure the users. You could take it as an example and see if it could work in your case.

hello!

so i just got a new deployment project for a big tomee application, and in tomee, things like the datasource must be configured in tomee.xml (which is like the server.xml from tomcat)

so... if i want to have two apps each with a separate datasource, i have to find some way to inject the datasource information into the tomee.xml for both.

i want to have a generic tomee cookbook (which will be almost identical to the tomcat cookbook), then i want to have separate application cookbooks.

when i add both to the same machine, i want both of their datasources to show up in tomee.xml, and when just one is there, just one should show up...

so...

any ideas?
