Contains custom resources for adding Ohai hints and installing custom Ohai plugins. Handles path creation as well as the reloading of Ohai so that new data will be available during the same run.
This cookbook has been deprecated as all functionality here is now built into the Chef Infra Client itself. The ohai_hint resource now ships in Chef Infra Client and any plugins can be installed by placing them in an ohai directory within a cookbook in your runlist.

Hint file installed to the default directory:
ohai_hint 'ec2'Hint file not installed at compile time:
ohai_hint 'ec2' do
compile_time false
endHint file installed with content:
ohai_hint 'raid_present' do
content Hash[:a, 'test_content']
endYou can check for the creation or deletion of ohai hints with chefspec using these custom matches:
- create_ohai_hint
- delete_ohai_hint

Either:cookbook_fileor:template. Defaults to:cookbook_file.variables- Usable only ifresourceis:template. Defines the template's variables.compile_time- Should the resource run at compile time. This defaults totrue.load_single_plugin- Reload all plugins unless this value is set to true. Load only the named plugin.
Simple Ohai plugin installation:
ohai_plugin 'my_custom_plugin'Installation where the resource doesn't match the filename and you install to a custom plugins dir:
ohai_plugin 'My Ohai Plugin' do
name 'my_custom_plugin'
path '/my/custom/path/'
endInstallation using a template:
ohai_plugin 'My Templated Plugin' do
name 'templated_plugin'
resource :template
variables node_type: :web_server
endYou can check for the creation or deletion of ohai plugins with chefspec using these custom matches:
- create_ohai_plugin
- delete_ohai_plugin
