What Seth said is true - this is probably not a good idea. That said, we are just Ruby - so go nuts prompting users if you so desire. :)

Chef is designed to be headless - you would store the password on the system or in an environment variable.

Hi,

  How to prompt in chef?

  I need to ask from a user whether they need to keep the default value which i described in attribute file or they need to override with their new value and get and process in that value itself.

Thanks,
