This page serves as a getting started guide for community members interested in contributing to the OpenStack Chef cookbooks and example repository.

Communication

The OpenStack + Chef community leverages the main openstack-dev mailing list with the tag of [chef] in the subject line.
There is an #openstack-chef channel on Freenode.net. Come hang out with us and collaborate there.
Our IRC status meeting are at 14:30 GMT 10:30 EST 07:30 PST on Mondays and we post the links to the Mailing List and our IRC status meeting/office hours are at 14:30 GMT 10:30 EST 07:30 PST on Thursdays. We try to have as many core members here so we can discuss topics or issues users are having.

Bug Tracking

We track bugs and feature requests using a single Launchpad project called OpenStack + Chef. You can see the list of open bugs or file a new bug.

Blueprints / Feature Tracking

For major feature enhancements and planning you can use Launchpad's Blueprints system for the OpenStack + Chef project on Launchpad. You can create a new blueprint that may be targeted to a milestone and tracked appropriately. The process for blueprint content reviews is documented here: https://github.com/stackforge/openstack-chef-specs

Code

The canonical upstream Chef cookbooks and example repository are located in the Stackforge Github organization. There is a single Chef cookbook for each integrated OpenStack project:

In addition to the project cookbooks, there are five support cookbooks:

As well as an example Chef Repository that sets up an OpenStack environment:
