Master branch:

Develop branch:

####The goals of this project are:

• Learn how to develop Chef cookbooks.
• Develop cookbooks in a sound, test driven way.
• Help others new to the game.

##Can you party? There are a number of dependencies to use this, at a bare minimum:

• Ruby 1.9.3
• Rake
• Bundler
• Virtual Box
• Vagrant

Run this command to check the rest of your dependencies:

rake check

Use the file located in environment.sh to set the needed environment variables. You can source this file or add the variables to your .bash_profile. These can be over ridden in forked projects by specifying them in the included knife.rb file. In general the file has been set up to allow multiple users to access the project repository. The fastest way is to just set your variables and run:

source environment.sh
