Chef is an open-source automation platform that configures and manages computers from a central hub. This tutorial will guide you through the steps to install Chef on your Manjaro system.
Before installing Chef, ensure that your system has the following prerequisites:
In order to install Chef on Manjaro, you first need to add the Chef repository to your system. To do this, open a terminal window and enter the following command:
sudo curl -L https://omnitruck.chef.io/install.sh | sudo bash
This command downloads and runs a script that adds the Chef repository to your system.
Once you have added the Chef repository, you can proceed with the installation. Enter the following command in your terminal window:
sudo pacman -S chef
This command installs the Chef package on your system, which includes all the tools and libraries required for configuration management.
Once the installation is complete, you can verify that Chef is properly installed by entering the following command in your terminal window:
chef-client --version
This command should output the version number of the Chef client installed on your system.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Chef on your Manjaro system. You are now ready to use Chef to automate your configuration management tasks.
