chef server endpoint

Chef Server Endpoint

An endpoint called 'Chef Server' is bundled with this extension. This allows multiple Chef servers to be configured and reused across tasks as required. Endpoints are a per-project configuration and can be accessed via Project Settings (cog) > Services

The following parameters are required for the endpoint.

Parameter	Description	Example
Connection Name	Name of the connection so it can be selected from the drop down list when used in a task	My Supermarket
Chef Supermarket URL	URL for the supermarket	https://mysupermarket.example.com
SSL Verification	Whether to perform SSL verification. Set to false if you do not have valid certificates on your supermarket. Default: True	True
Username (Node name)	Name of the client to use to perform the upload	supermarket
Client Key	Private key of the specified client

Information

On 13th November 2017 an updated version of the endpoint was released. This changes the location of the SSL Verification on the endpoint form.

Due to this change any existing Chef Server endpoints that have been setup will need to be recreated after upgrading. Old endpoints will not work properly.
