# packagecloud cookbook
This cookbook provides a resource for installing <https://packagecloud.io> repositories.
NOTE: Please see the Changelog below for important changes if upgrading from 0.0.19 to 0.1.0.
## Usage
Be sure to depend on `packagecloud` in `metadata.rb` so that the packagecloud resource will be loaded.
For public repos:
```ruby
packagecloud_repo "computology/packagecloud-cookbook-test-public" do
type "deb"
end
```
For private repos, you need to supply a `master_token`:
```ruby
packagecloud_repo "computology/packagecloud-cookbook-test-private" do
type "deb"
master_token "762748f7ae0bfdb086dd539575bdc8cffdca78c6a9af0db9"
end
```
For packagecloud:enterprise users, add `base_url` to your resource:
```
packagecloud_repo "computology/packagecloud-cookbook-test-private" do
base_url "https://packages.example.com"
type "deb"
master_token "762748f7ae0bfdb086dd539575bdc8cffdca78c6a9af0db9"
end
```
For forcing the os and dist for repository install:
```
packagecloud_repo 'computology/packagecloud-cookbook-test-public' do
type 'rpm'
force_os 'rhel'
force_dist '6.5'
end
```
Valid options for `type` include `deb`, `rpm`, and `gem`.
This cookbook performs checks to determine if a package exists before attempting to install it. To enable proxy support _for these checks_ (not to be confused with proxy support for your package manager of choice), add the following attributes to your cookbook:
```
default['packagecloud']['proxy_host'] = 'myproxy.organization.com'
default['packagecloud']['proxy_port'] = '80'
```
## Interactions with other cookbooks
On CentOS 5, the official chef yum cookbook overwrites the file `/etc/yum.conf` setting some default values. When it does this, the `cachedir` value is changed from the CentOS5 default to the default value in the cookbook. The result of this change is that any packagecloud repository installed _before_ a repository installed with the yum cookbook will appear as though it's gpg keys were not imported.
There are a few potential workarounds for this:
- Pass the "-y" flag to package resource using the `options` attribute. This should cause yum to import the GPG key automatically if it was not imported already.
- Move your packagecloud repos so that they are installed last, after any/all repos installed via the yum cookbook.
- Set the cachedir option in the chef yum cookbook to the system default value of `/var/cache/yum` using the `yum_globalconfig` resource.
CentOS 6 and 7 are not affected as the default `cachedir` value provided by the yum chef cookbook is set to the system default, unless you use the `yum_globalconfig` resource to set a custom cachedir. If you do set a custom `cachedir`, you should make sure to setup packagecloud repos after that resource is set so that the GPG keys end up in the right place.
