A very small gem that allows using Chef as a library from other applications. Currently supports ad-hoc recipes as code blocks and managing (running an action on) a single resource.

Evil chef needs more work but it's already usable. bug reports and feature requests are appreciated.

TODO: pre-configure formatters, easy cookbook loading, cleaning up rough spots.

for those interested in abuses, think about running this with drb.... total violation of CM principles but cool nevertheless.
