Foodcritic will give you a warning if you use definitions though, just as an FYI

Hi All,

 

This may be a very basic concept but I am not able to find the syntax to make it work.  For Example, Is it possible to create a resource in recipe email.rb named emailme that can take a parameter that I can then feed into the recipe to email me a specific message from another recipe using notifies and only_if etc.  So what I am trying to do is reuse code instead of writing an emailme resource in every recipe. 

 

Thanks

Look at definition instead of recipe, you can define there a resource which takes parameter and it's code will be evaluated with the correct parameters. Usually the definitions are used to call a group of resources with some parameters.
