Yes, you can just use local mode with chef provisioning. Here's an example:

https://github.com/adamedx/devstation

The readme there talks about using local mode. That example uses Azure, should be similar for aws.

Subject: [chef] Using Chef provisioning to provision a windows node without aChef Server

Hi All,

 

I’m in the process of rebuilding my machine. Is it possible to use Chef Provisioning to provision a windows node, without using a Chef server?

I’ve got a Windows autounatend xml file, so could install chef from there.

Any help appreciated.

Kind regards

Sean.
