Simply include the nexus_iq_server recipe wherever you would like Nexus IQ Server installed. Simply add
recipe['nexus_iq_server'] to your runlist or include_recipe 'nexus_iq_server' to your cookbook. This will
install Nexus IQ Server managed as a systemd service.
We also provide a nexus_iq_server::docker recipe which is exactly the same but without installing a systemd service.
- nexus_iq_server::default Installs Nexus IQ Server and starts it as systemd service.
- nexus_iq_server::docker
Installs Nexus IQ Server. Instead of a systemd service a startup script
start_nexus_iq_server.shis provided in install_dir. - nexus_iq_server::rh-docker Uses the nexus_iq_server:docker recipe but includes additional metadata to conform with Kubernetes and OpenShift standards, a directory with the licenses applicable to the software and a man file for help on how to use the software. It also uses an ENTRYPOINT script to ensure the running user has access to the appropriate permissions for OpenShift 'restricted' SCC.
The man file included in the Red Hat image is generated from this help markdown. Markdown can be converted to the appropriate format using md2roff. This process is currently not part of the automated build and needs to be done manually after any update to the help markdown.
We provide a simple smoke test for this cookbook. Use this command to run it:
kitchen test
We run our tests against centos-7.3 as well as ubuntu-16.04. However all major systemd based distributions should
work fine.
The alternative nexus_iq_server::docker recipe does not require systemd.
