@rgeyer @gonzalez @adamalex thoughts?

cdwilhelm commented 7 years ago

I think this is cool. I think we should put the rightscale ohai plugin into a gem and install the gem instead of using an attachment. The reason I like that approach is mainly for the source control of the plugin, and then we can use it in other scripts too.

rshade commented 7 years ago

Can you describe the other use-cases? How it would install, and how it would add more source control then this methods?

rshade commented 7 years ago

we could create an ohai-plugin-cookbook, https://learn.chef.io/tutorials/build-an-ohai-plugin/, that seems like a lot of overkill for this, but it seems to be the "chef way", it just means all our cookbooks have to depend on this one.

@rshade I forgot the file was in github as a right_st server template. I don't know other use cases. so we can deal with that later if it comes up.
