[chef] Re: which cookbook version used in chef-client run?

["Julian C. Dunn" < >]

It's a little dirty, but if you crack open the run context you can do it:

---8<--- cut here ---8<---

log "---Writing all ckbks and versions---"
cookbooks = @run_context.cookbook_collection

log "The recipes were these: #{cookbooks.keys.map {|x|
cookbooks[x].name + " " + cookbooks[x].version} }"
log "---End Writing all ckbks and versions---

---8<--- cut here ---8<---


Credit goes to Sean Horn for this tidbit of code.
