[chef] true using of knife search in separate script/recipe context

[Vladimir Skubriev < >]

I want to search nodes that was run recipes.

I want to check my code in separate file, after that integrate them into recipe

My file is:

#!/opt/chef/embedded/bin/ruby

require 'chef'
require 'chef/knife/search'

require 'chef/knife'
require 'chef/search/query'
require 'chef/knife/search'

# I think that i can search trivil with this method, but it is not working
# Will be ideal to use this method
nodes = search(:node, "*:*")

nodes.each do |nod|

        puts nod
        nod.recipe? "cbacula::client"

end

I found this example at ( http://www.opscode.com/blog/2011/04/22/chef-0-10-preview-knife-plugins-and-ui/),

but i am frusrating to use it because of fuzzier_query var not understandable for me.


fuzzier_query = "tags:* OR roles: OR fqdn: OR addresses: "

knife_search = Chef::Knife::Search.new
knife_search.name_args = ['node', fuzzier_query]
knife_search.run

How can i find objects of class node on my chef server ?

I think that i am on the wrong way because recipe context and separate script not the same things.

I tried to use shef -z, but the documentation on its use, which I was found very small.

Thank you very much.
