[chef] LWRP - attributes required

[Wade Peacock < >]

Hey All,

 

Is it possible in the resource file of a LWRP to have attributes required for certain action type.

 

Exampe:

 

actions    :foo, :bar

 

default_action :foo

 

attribute :name, :kind_of => String, :name_attribute => true

attribute :section, :kind_of => String, :required => true (only for :bar action)

attribute :item, :kind_of => String, :required => true (only for :foo action )

attribute :value, :kind_of => [String,Integer], :required => true

 

Is the :respond_to the right thing?

 

I tried with no success:  

attribute :section, :kind_of => String, :required => true, :respond_to foo?
