[chef] Need to pass argument from recipe to another in cookbook

[< >]

Hi,

I had a cookbook with multiple recipes, in one of them having resources like

Path /root/chef-repo/cookbooks/rollback/recipes/default.rb

ruby_block "Create a directry for backup" do
  block do
  FileUtils.mkdir node['backup_path'] unless Dir.exists? node['backup_path']
  $s=FileUtils.mkdir node['new_directory']
  puts "directory#{$s}"
  end
end


I need to pass this global variable $s  to another chef resources in another
recipe like Path /root/chef-repo/cookbooks/rollback/recipes/xxxx.rb, if is is
possible how can i get that value during at run time or in any other way?



Thanks in advance,
