provisioning - Chef : Why are resources in an "include_recipe" step being skipped?

Question

Chef 似乎以奇怪的顺序处理资源，导致我的构建失败。我的主要 Recipe (mytardis-chef/site-cookbooks/recipes/default.rb)是这样开始的:

include_recipe "build-essential"
include_recipe "mytardis::deps"
include_recipe "mytardis::nginx"
include_recipe "mytardis::postgresql"

mytardis-chef/cookbooks/build-essential/recipes/default.rb看起来像这样:

case node['platform']
when "ubuntu","debian"
  %w{build-essential binutils-doc}.each do |pkg|
    package pkg do
      action :install
    end
  end
when "centos","redhat","fedora","scientific"
  %w{gcc gcc-c++ kernel-devel make}.each do |pkg|
    package pkg do
      action :install
    end
  end
end

...(它是 https://github.com/opscode-cookbooks/build-essential/blob/master/recipes/default.rb 的旧版本)

在运行时，由于我不明白的原因，这个构建基本配方被加载但没有执行:

也就是说，构建基本配方是“找到”和“加载”的，但首先“处理”的是 postgres 配方。而且由于没有运行 build-essential (安装 C 编译器)，后者失败了。

我的 Vagrantfile 的相关部分如下所示:

  config.vm.provision :chef_solo do |chef|
     chef.log_level = :debug
     chef.cookbooks_path = ["mytardis-chef/site-cookbooks", "mytardis-chef/cookbooks"]
     chef.roles_path = "mytardis-chef/roles"
     chef.data_bags_path = "mytardis-chef/data_bags"
     chef.add_recipe "mytardis"    
  end

我以前使用的是稍早版本的 Chef(可能是 10.10.0？)在那个版本中，build-essential 也没有运行，但 mytardis::deps 运行了。现在使用 Chef 10.12.0。物理机是 OSX，VM 是 Ubuntu Lucid。

所以，有几个问题:

为什么 build-essential 没有被“处理”？

这样做的正确方法是什么？ (这些 Recipe 不是我写的，我知道他们为他们的作者做过或曾经为他们工作过。)

站点 Recipe 和 Recipe 的“阴影”功能是否仍然有效？据说已弃用:http://tickets.opscode.com/browse/CHEF-2308 (我尝试在 site-cookbooks/mytardis/recipes/build-essential 下创建一个符号链接(symbolic link)，但没有任何乐趣)。

Answer 1

事实证明，这是 Chef 工作方式中一个非常正常(但记录不足)的部分:它编译所有内容，然后开始运行。除了一些配方(如 Postgres)在编译时跳入队列以实际安装，使用如下代码:

  action :nothing
end.run_action(:run)

解决方案是任何需要在 Postgres 之前运行的东西也需要这样做。幸运的是， Build-essentials 的更新版本允许这个。您在角色上设置属性，如下所示:

name "myapp"
run_list(
  "recipe[build-essential]",
  "recipe[myapp]"
)
default_attributes(
  "build_essential" => {
    "compiletime" => true
  }
)
