=====
|
|
|
|
This cookbook installs a Java JDK/JRE. It defaults to installing
|
|
OpenJDK, but it can also install Oracle and IBM JDKs.
|
|
|
|
Usage
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
Simply include the `java` recipe wherever you would like Java installed, such as a run list (`recipe[java]`) or a cookbook (`include_recipe 'java'`). By default, OpenJDK 6 is installed. The `install_flavor` attribute is used to determine which JDK to install (OpenJDK, Oracle, IBM, or Windows), and `jdk_version` specifies which version to install (currently 6 and 7 are supported for all JDK types, 8 for Oracle only).
|
|
|
|
### Examples
|
|
|
|
To install Oracle Java 7 (note that when installing Oracle JDK, `accept_oracle_download_terms` must be set -- see below for details):
|
|
```ruby
|
|
name "java"
|
|
description "Install Oracle Java"
|
|
default_attributes(
|
|
"java" => {
|
|
"install_flavor" => "oracle",
|
|
"jdk_version" => "7",
|
|
"oracle" => {
|
|
"accept_oracle_download_terms" => true
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
)
|
|
run_list(
|
|
"recipe[java]"
|
|
)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To install IBM flavored Java:
|
|
```ruby
|
|
name "java"
|
|
description "Install IBM Java on Ubuntu"
|
|
default_attributes(
|
|
"java" => {
|
|
"install_flavor" => "ibm",
|
|
"ibm" => {
|
|
"accept_ibm_download_terms" => true,
|
|
"url" => "http://fileserver.example.com/ibm-java-x86_64-sdk-7.0-4.1.bin",
|
|
"checksum" => "The SHA256 checksum of the bin"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
)
|
|
run_list(
|
|
"recipe[java]"
|
|
)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
Recipes
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
### default
|
|
|
|
Include the default recipe in a run list or recipe to get `java`. By default
|
|
the `openjdk` flavor of Java is installed, but this can be changed by
|
|
using the `install_flavor` attribute. By default on Windows platform
|
|
systems, the `install_flavor` is `windows`.
|
|
|
|
OpenJDK is the default because of licensing changes made upstream by
|
|
Oracle. See notes on the `oracle` recipe below.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: In most cases, including just the default recipe will be sufficient.
|
|
It's possible to include the install_type recipes directly, as long as
|
|
the necessary attributes (such as java_home) are set.
|
|
|
|
### set_attributes_from_version
|
|
|
|
Sets default attributes based on the JDK version. This is included by `default.rb`. This logic must be in
|
|
a recipe instead of attributes/default.rb. See [#95](https://github.com/agileorbit-cookbooks/java/pull/95)
|
|
for details.
|
|
|
|
### default_java_symlink
|
|
|
|
Updates /usr/lib/jvm/default-java to point to JAVA_HOME.
|
|
|
|
### purge_packages
|
|
|
|
Purges deprecated Sun Java packages.
|
|
|
|
### openjdk
|
|
|
|
This recipe installs the `openjdk` flavor of Java. It also uses the
|
|
`alternatives` system on RHEL/Debian families to set the default Java.
|
|
|
|
On platforms such as SmartOS that require the acceptance of a license
|
|
agreement during package installation, set
|
|
`node['java']['accept_license_agreement']` to true in order to indicate
|
|
that you accept the license.
|
|
|
|
### oracle
|
|
|
|
This recipe installs the `oracle` flavor of Java. This recipe does not
|
|
use distribution packages as Oracle changed the licensing terms with
|
|
JDK 1.6u27 and prohibited the practice for both RHEL and Debian family
|
|
platforms.
|
|
|
|
As of 26 March 2012 you can no longer directly download the JDK from
|
|
Oracle's website without using a special cookie. This cookbook uses
|
|
that cookie to download the oracle recipe on your behalf, however the
|
|
`java::oracle` recipe forces you to set either override the
|
|
`node['java']['oracle']['accept_oracle_download_terms']` to true or
|
|
set up a private repository accessible by HTTP.
|
|
|
|
override the `accept_oracle_download_terms` in, e.g., `roles/base.rb`
|
|
```ruby
|
|
default_attributes(
|
|
:java => {
|
|
:oracle => {
|
|
"accept_oracle_download_terms" => true
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For both RHEL and Debian families, this recipe pulls the binary
|
|
distribution from the Oracle website, and installs it in the default
|
|
`JAVA_HOME` for each distribution. For Debian, this is
|
|
`/usr/lib/jvm/default-java`. For RHEl, this is `/usr/lib/jvm/java`.
|
|
|
|
After putting the binaries in place, the `java::oracle` recipe updates
|
|
`/usr/bin/java` to point to the installed JDK using the
|
|
`update-alternatives` script. This is all handled in the `java_ark`
|
|
LWRP.
|
|
|
|
### oracle_i386
|
|
|
|
This recipe installs the 32-bit Java virtual machine without setting
|
|
it as the default. This can be useful if you have applications on the
|
|
same machine that require different versions of the JVM.
|
|
|
|
This recipe operates in a similar manner to `java::oracle`.
|
|
|
|
### oracle_rpm
|
|
|
|
This recipe installs the Oracle JRE or JDK provided by a custom YUM
|
|
repositories.
|
|
It also uses the `alternatives` system on RHEL families to set
|
|
the default Java.
|
|
|
|
### windows
|
|
|
|
Because there is no easy way to pull the java msi off oracle's site,
|
|
this recipe requires you to host it internally on your own http repo.
|
|
|
|
**IMPORTANT NOTE**
|
|
|
|
If you use the `windows` recipe, you'll need to make sure you've uploaded
|
|
the `aws` and `windows` cookbooks. As of version 1.18.0, this cookbook
|
|
references them with `suggests` instead of `depends`, as they are only
|
|
used by the `windows` recipe.
|
|
|
|
### ibm
|
|
|
|
The `java::ibm` recipe is used to install the IBM version of Java.
|
|
Note that IBM requires you to create an account *and* log in to
|
|
download the binary installer for your platform. You must accept the
|
|
license agreement with IBM to use their version of Java. In this
|
|
cookbook, you indicate this by setting
|
|
`node['java']['ibm']['accept_ibm_download_terms']` to `true`. You must
|
|
also host the binary on your own HTTP server to have an automated
|
|
installation. The `node['java']['ibm']['url']` attribute must be set
|
|
to a valid https/http URL; the URL is checked for validity in the recipe.
|
|
|
|
At this time the `java::ibm` recipe does not support multiple SDK
|
|
installations.
|
|
|
|
Resources/Providers
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
### java_ark
|
|
|
|
This cookbook contains the `java_ark` LWRP. Generally speaking this
|
|
LWRP is deprecated in favor of `ark` from the
|
|
[ark cookbook](https://github.com/opscode-cookbooks/ark), but it is
|
|
still used in this cookbook for handling the Oracle JDK installation.
|
|
|
|
By default, the extracted directory is extracted to
|
|
`app_root/extracted_dir_name` and symlinked to `app_root/default`
|
|
|
|
#### Actions
|
|
|
|
- `:install`: extracts the tarball and makes necessary symlinks
|
|
- `:remove`: removes the tarball and run update-alternatives for all
|
|
symlinked `bin_cmds`
|
|
|
|
#### Attribute Parameters
|
|
|
|
- `url`: path to tarball, .tar.gz, .bin (oracle-specific), and .zip
|
|
currently supported
|
|
- `checksum`: SHA256 checksum, not used for security but avoid
|
|
redownloading the archive on each chef-client run
|
|
- `app_home`: the default for installations of this type of
|
|
application, for example, `/usr/lib/tomcat/default`. If your
|
|
application is not set to the default, it will be placed at the same
|
|
level in the directory hierarchy but the directory name will be
|
|
`app_root/extracted_directory_name + "_alt"`
|
|
- `app_home_mode`: file mode for app_home, is an integer
|
|
- `bin_cmds`: array of binary commands that should be symlinked to
|
|
`/usr/bin`, examples are mvn, java, javac, etc. These cmds must be in
|
|
the `bin` subdirectory of the extracted folder. Will be ignored if this
|
|
`java_ark` is not the default
|
|
- `owner`: owner of extracted directory, set to "root" by default
|
|
- `group`: group of extracted directory, set to `:owner` by default
|
|
- `default`: whether this the default installation of this package,
|
|
boolean true or false
|
|
|
|
#### Examples
|
|
```ruby
|
|
# install jdk6 from Oracle
|
|
java_ark "jdk" do
|
|
url 'http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/6u29-b11/jdk-6u29-linux-x64.bin'
|
|
checksum 'a8603fa62045ce2164b26f7c04859cd548ffe0e33bfc979d9fa73df42e3b3365'
|
|
app_home '/usr/local/java/default'
|
|
bin_cmds ["java", "javac"]
|
|
action :install
|
|
end
|
|
```
|
|
### java_alternatives
|
|
|
|
The `java_alternatives` LWRP uses `update-alternatives` command
|
|
to set and unset command alternatives for various Java tools
|
|
such as java, javac, etc.
|
|
|
|
#### Actions
|
|
|
|
- `:set`: set alternatives for Java tools
|
|
- `:unset`: unset alternatives for Java tools
|
|
|
|
#### Attribute Parameters
|
|
|
|
- `java_location`: Java installation location.
|
|
- `bin_cmds`: array of Java tool names to set or unset alternatives on.
|
|
- `default`: whether to set the Java tools as system default. Boolean, defaults to `true`.
|
|
- `priority`: priority of the alternatives. Integer, defaults to `1061`.
|
|
|
|
#### Examples
|
|
```ruby
|
|
# set alternatives for java and javac commands
|
|
java_alternatives "set java alternatives" do
|
|
java_location '/usr/local/java'
|
|
bin_cmds ["java", "javac"]
|
|
action :set
|
|
end
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Production Deployment with Oracle Java
|
|
-----
|
|
Oracle has been known to change the behavior of its download site frequently. It is recommended you store the archives on an artifact server or s3 bucket. You can then override the attributes in a cookbook, role, or environment:
|
|
|
|
```ruby
|
|
default['java']['jdk_version'] = '7'
|
|
default['java']['install_flavor'] = 'oracle'
|
|
default['java']['jdk']['7']['x86_64']['url'] = 'http://artifactory.example.com/artifacts/jdk-7u65-linux-x64.tar.gz'
|
|
default['java']['oracle']['accept_oracle_download_terms'] = true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Recommendations for inclusion in community cookbooks
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
This cookbook is a dependency for many other cookbooks in the Java/Chef sphere. Here are some guidelines for including it into other cookbooks:
|
|
|
|
### Allow people to not use this cookbook
|
|
Many users manage Java on their own or have systems that already have java installed. Give these users an option to skip this cookbook, for example:
|
|
```ruby
|
|
include_recipe 'java' if node['maven']['install_java']
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This would allow a users of the maven cookbook to choose if they want the maven cookbook to install java for them or leave that up to the consumer.
|
|
|
|
Another good example is from the [Jenkins Cookbook Java recipe](https://github.com/opscode-cookbooks/jenkins/commit/ca2a69d982011dc1bec6a6d0ee4da5c1a1599864).
|
|
|
|
### Pinning to major version of cookbook and Java
|
|
This cookbook follows semver. It is recommended to pin at the major version of this cookbook when including it in other cookbooks, eg: `depends 'java', '~> 1.0'`
|
|
|
|
It is acceptable to set the `node['java']['jdk_version']` to a specific version if required for your software to run, eg software xyz requires Java 8 to run. Refrain from pinning to specific patches of the JDK to allow users to consume security updates.
|
|
|
|
Development
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
This cookbook uses
|
|
[test-kitchen](https://github.com/opscode/test-kitchen) for
|
|
integration tests and
|
|
[ChefSpec/RSpec](https://github.com/sethvargo/chefspec) for unit tests.
|
|
See [TESTING.md](https://github.com/agileorbit-cookbooks/java/blob/master/TESTING.md) for testing instructions.
|
|
|
|
At this time due to licensing concerns, the IBM recipe is not set up
|
|
in test kitchen. If you would like to test this locally, copy
|
|
.kitchen.yml to .kitchen.local.yml and add the following suite:
|
|
```yml
|
|
suites:
|
|
- name: ibm
|
|
run_list: ["recipe[java]"]
|
|
attributes:
|
|
java:
|
|
install_flavor: "ibm"
|
|
ibm:
|
|
accept_ibm_download_terms: true
|
|
url: "http://jenkins/ibm-java-x86_64-sdk-7.0-4.1.bin"
|
|
checksum: the-sha256-checksum
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Log into the IBM DeveloperWorks site to download a copy of the IBM
|
|
Java SDK you wish to use/test, host it on an internal HTTP server, and
|
|
calculate the SHA256 checksum to use in the suite.
