[chef] Re: Determine inside VPC

[David Petzel < >]

Perhaps this will work for you?

vpc_id = nil

node['ec2']['network_interfaces_macs'].each_pair do |iface, data|

  vpc_id = data['vpc_id'] if data.key?('vpc_id')

end

I'm trying to use ohai to determine if my instance is inside a VPC. There's a key nested down there under node['ec2']['network_interfaces_macs'] when this is the case, called vpc_id, but my ruby is horrible and I'm having trouble fetching it. For reasons I don't understand ohai reports this is a dictionary, but when I attempt to iterate over it inside a chef recipe, it's an array.

Is there an easy/better way to determine in chef if your ec2 instance is inside a VPC?
