Please provide default recipe file.

It would be great if there were a default recipe for this cookbook. Something like this?

Cookbook Name:: mule Recipe:: default

include_recipe 'java'

group 'mule' do end

user 'mule' do supports manage_home: true shell '/bin/bash' home '/home/mule' comment 'Mule user' group 'mule' end

mule_instance "mule-esb" do version '3.8.1' user 'mule' group 'mule' end

[akulbe]

I'm still unsure if a

`group mule do

end `

block is needed before the user creation, or not.

I think you have to have the group before the user, because the user is a member of the group. However, we should probably protect this part with an attribute that indicates whether or not to create the user. Same thing for installing the JDK.

Shouldn't the JDK be installed no matter what? (since it's a dependency for Mulesoft) or are you just wanting it to be idempotent, in case the user already has a JDK in place?

[hoeggco]

Right, the user and the JDK might already be there

I could see making a default recipe that would be friendly. Either provide attributes that allow you to enable the creation of the user, group, and JDK, or try to detect them and create if missing.

Do either of these options seem intuitive? I'd like to align this cookbook with the way people expect from using other cookbooks.

@rhoegg It's normal to have a default recipe that does everything needed for a "standard" setup using a sane set of default attributes. Users that need a special setup can run the included recipes individually and set attributes as needed.
