[chef] Re: Search on included cookbooks

[sd < >]

Hi,

You can find the cookbooks used by a node's run list by doing a search.

All good as long as you use all cookbooks into the run list or you have a role.

I'm referring to something like this

run_list ["wrap_cookbook"]

And into wrap_cookbook::default you could have something like

include_recipe "cookbook_one"

include_recipe "cookbook_two"

So what I want is to search on the chef server and see what nodes use cookbook_one.

thanks!

The best idea coming to my head is doing a comparison between runlist and expanded runlist, but it involves handling roles...

Unsure of what you mean with chef search, if it's to filter nodes having a recipe by includes that's ok but if it's to know which recipe is included that's harder, knife-audit is a good candidate  for the last option.

All in all, can you give a use case for cleaner answer ?

Hi,

Not sure if this is available in the latest version but is possible to see the cookbooks

included from other cookbooks by doing a chef search ?

thanks!
