[chef] Re: Re: Re: Popup menu through chef

Maybe you need to adjust/rework the script to run silently?, or accept command line arguments, not in a popup?

What is the script written in now? Batch, Powershell?

Thanks Andy,

Actually we have a windows script which has an option of Popup for accepting user option dynamically  and we want to convert that script to some chef recipe.

Yes we can pass the user arguments through json attributes.

Thanks & Regards,

Sachin,

Although it would be possible to do it with ruby, it would be
inadvisable as Chef is really intended to be run without intervention.
Have the users set the required options using JSON attributes when
chef solo or chef-client command is run.

Cheers,

Andy
