Installs node.js/io.js and manages npm
## Requirements
### Platforms
- Debian/Ubuntu
- RHEL/CentOS/Scientific/Amazon/Oracle
Note: Source installs require GCC 4.8+, which is not included on older distro releases
### Chef
- Chef 11+
### Cookbooks
- yum-epel
- build-essential
- ark
- apt
- homebrew
## Usage
Include the nodejs recipe to install node on your system based on the default installation method:
```chef
include_recipe "nodejs"
```
### Engine
You can select different engine by setting `node['nodejs']['engine']`
```
node['nodejs']['engine'] => 'node' # default
node['nodejs']['engine'] => 'iojs'
```
You can also use recipes `nodejs::nodejs` or `nodejs::iojs`.
### Install methods
#### Package
Install node from packages:
```chef
node['nodejs']['install_method'] = 'package' # Not necessary because it's the default
include_recipe "nodejs"
# Or
include_recipe "nodejs::nodejs_from_package"
```
Note that only apt (Ubuntu, Debian) appears to have up to date packages available. Centos, RHEL, etc are non-functional (try `nodejs_from_binary` for those).
#### Binary
Install node from official prebuilt binaries:
```chef
node['nodejs']['install_method'] = 'binary'
include_recipe "nodejs"
# Or
include_recipe "nodejs::nodejs_from_binary"
# Or set a specific version of nodejs to be installed
node.default['nodejs']['install_method'] = 'binary'
node.default['nodejs']['version'] = '5.9.0'
node.default['nodejs']['binary']['checksum'] = '99c4136cf61761fac5ac57f80544140a3793b63e00a65d4a0e528c9db328bf40'
```
#### Source
Install node from sources:
```chef
node['nodejs']['install_method'] = 'source'
include_recipe "nodejs"
# Or
include_recipe "nodejs::nodejs_from_source"
```
## NPM
Npm is included in nodejs installs by default. By default, we are using it and call it `embedded`. Adding recipe `nodejs::npm` assure you to have npm installed and let you choose install method with `node['nodejs']['npm']['install_method']`
```chef
include_recipe "nodejs::npm"
```
_Warning:_ This recipe will include the `nodejs` recipe, which by default includes `nodejs::nodejs_from_package` if you did not set `node['nodejs']['install_method']`.
## Custom Resources (Providers)
### nodejs_npm
`nodejs_npm` let you install npm packages from various sources:
- npm registry:
- name: `attribute :package`
- version: `attribute :version` (optional)
- url: `attribute :url`
- for git use `git://{your_repo}`
- from a json (package.json by default): `attribute :json`
- use `true` for default
- use a `String` to specify json file
Packages can be installed globally (by default) or in a directory (by using `attribute :path`)
You can specify an `NPM_TOKEN` environment variable for accessing [NPM private modules](https://docs.npmjs.com/private-modules/intro) by using `attribute :npm_token`
You can append more specific options to npm command with `attribute :options` array :
- use an array of options (w/ dash), they will be added to npm call.
- ex: `['--production','--force']` or `['--force-latest']`
This LWRP attempts to use vanilla npm as much as possible (no custom wrapper).
### Packages
```ruby
nodejs_npm "express"
nodejs_npm "async" do
version "0.6.2"
end
nodejs_npm "request" do
url "github mikeal/request"
end
nodejs_npm "grunt" do
path "/home/random/grunt"
json true
user "random"
end
nodejs_npm "my_private_module" do
path "/home/random/myproject" # The root path to your project, containing a package.json file
json true
npm_token "12345-abcde-e5d4c3b2a1"
user "random"
options ['--production'] # Only install dependencies. Skip devDependencies
end
```
[Working Examples](test/cookbooks/nodejs_test/recipes/npm.rb)
Or add packages via attributes (which accept the same attributes as the LWRP above):
```json
"nodejs": {
"npm_packages": [
{
"name": "express"
},
{
"name": "async",
"version": "0.6.2"
},
{
"name": "request",
"url": "github mikeal/request"
}
{
"name": "grunt",
"path": "/home/random/grunt",
"json": true,
"user": "random"
}
]
}
```
