[chef] PolicyFile and alternative sources

[Phil Oliva < >]

Ohai Chefs,

 

I am currently reviewing https://github.com/chef/chef-dk/blob/master/POLICYFILE_README.md as seems policyfile feature has been moving forward the last few months.

 

Under specifying alternative sources it says “ChefDK can fetch cookbooks from Supermarket, git, and local disk (other sources will be added in the future)“.

 

However the examples only show

cookbook 'my_app', path: 'cookbooks/my_app'

cookbook 'mysql', github: 'opscode-cookbooks/mysql', branch: 'master'

 

I am wondering if you currently able to resolve from git location not on github. Can an internal gitlab location be used?

 

Also if you have an internal supermarket or minimart site can they be used as a policyfile source?

 

If this is possible any examples would be great.

 

-Phil
