posix_acl Cookbook

POSIX filesystem ACLs LWRPs in a cookbook for Chef

Usage

ACL resource

Important restrictions:

• The user and the group attrbute cannot be used at the same time
• If the recursive attribute is set to true than the ACL setting will always run to ensure that all the subdirectories and files are set too

Examples

This example uses all the possible attributes with the default values:

posix_acl "/var/lib/foo" do
  user 'john'
  group ''
  read true
  write false
  execute true
  recursive false
  default false
end

TODO

• Make it fully testable (preferably with Test Kitchen and Serverspec)
