[chef] rbenv setup for system wide

[S Ahmed < >]

Thanks to your suggestions, I am going to use rbenv to manage my servers system wide ruby and gems setup.

From the readme it seems to alude to using rbenv as dependancy to a cookbook, but I want to setup a system wide (default) ruby and rubygems.

Does this mean I have to put this in my role_name.rb file?  (I'm using chef-solo).

My current base.rb is:

name 'base'

description 'base role that all nodes will have'

run_list "recipe[build-essential]", "recipe[ohai]", "recipe[runit]", "recipe[yum]", "recipe[openssl]", "recipe[git]", "recipe[apt]", "recipe[java]" 

So do I put rbenv related code in here like:

    depends 'rbenv'

    

    include_recipe "rbenv::default"

    include_recipe "rbenv::ruby_build"

    rbenv_ruby "1.9.3-p194"

    rbenv_gem "bundler" do

      ruby_version "1.9.3-p194"

    end

How can I create a list of gems I want pre-installed for default ruby to be able to access?
