# Chef Client Provisioner
Type: `chef-client`
The Chef Client provisioner installs and configures software on machines built
by Packer using [chef-client](http://docs.opscode.com/chef_client.html).
Packer configures a Chef client to talk to a remote Chef Server to
provision the machine.
The provisioner will even install Chef onto your machine if it isn't already
installed, using the official Chef installers provided by Opscode.
## Basic Example
The example below is fully functional. It will install Chef onto the
remote machine and run Chef client.
<pre class="prettyprint">
{
"type": "chef-client",
"server_url": "http://mychefserver.com:4000/"
}
</pre>
## Configuration Reference
The reference of available configuration options is listed below. No
configuration is actually required, but `node_name` is recommended
since it will allow the provisioner to clean up the node/client.
* `config_template` (string) - Path to a template that will be used for
the Chef configuration file. By default Packer only sets configuration
it needs to match the settings set in the provisioner configuration. If
you need to set configurations that the Packer provisioner doesn't support,
then you should use a custom configuration template. See the dedicated
"Chef Configuration" section below for more details.
* `execute_command` (string) - The command used to execute Chef. This has
various [configuration template variables](/docs/templates/configuration-templates.html)
available. See below for more information.
* `install_command` (string) - The command used to install Chef. This has
various [configuration template variables](/docs/templates/configuration-templates.html)
available. See below for more information.
* `json` (object) - An arbitrary mapping of JSON that will be available as
node attributes while running Chef.
* `node_name` (string) - The name of the node to register with the Chef
Server. This is optional and by defalt is empty. If you don't set this,
Packer can't clean up the node from the Chef Server using knife.
* `prevent_sudo` (boolean) - By default, the configured commands that are
executed to install and run Chef are executed with `sudo`. If this is true,
then the sudo will be omitted.
* `run_list` (array of strings) - The [run list](http://docs.opscode.com/essentials_node_object_run_lists.html)
for Chef. By default this is empty, and will use the run list sent
down by the Chef Server.
* `server_url` (string) - The URL to the Chef server. This is required.
* `skip_clean_client` (boolean) - If true, Packer won't remove the client
from the Chef server after it is done running. By default, this is false.
* `skip_clean_node` (boolean) - If true, Packer won't remove the node
from the Chef server after it is done running. By default, this is false.
This will be true by default if `node_name` is not set.
* `skip_install` (boolean) - If true, Chef will not automatically be installed
on the machine using the Opscode omnibus installers.
* `staging_directory` (string) - This is the directory where all the configuration
of Chef by Packer will be placed. By default this is "/tmp/packer-chef-solo".
This directory doesn't need to exist but must have proper permissions so that
the SSH user that Packer uses is able to create directories and write into
this folder. If the permissions are not correct, use a shell provisioner
prior to this to configure it properly.
* `validation_key_path` (string) - Path to the validation key for communicating
with the Chef Server. This will be uploaded to the remote machine. If this
is NOT set, then it is your responsibility via other means (shell provisioner,
etc.) to get a validation key to where Chef expects it.
## Chef Configuration
By default, Packer uses a simple Chef configuration file in order to set
the options specified for the provisioner. But Chef is a complex tool that
supports many configuration options. Packer allows you to specify a custom
configuration template if you'd like to set custom configurations.
The default value for the configuration template is:
```
log_level :info
log_location STDOUT
chef_server_url "{{.ServerUrl}}"
validation_client_name "chef-validator"
{{if ne .ValidationKeyPath ""}}
validation_key "{{.ValidationKeyPath}}"
{{end}}
{{if ne .NodeName ""}}
node_name "{{.NodeName}}"
{{end}}
```
This template is a [configuration template](/docs/templates/configuration-templates.html)
and has a set of variables available to use:
* `NodeName` - The node name set in the configuration.
* `ServerUrl` - The URL of the Chef Server set in the configuration.
* `ValidationKeyPath` - Path to the validation key, if it is set.
## Execute Command
By default, Packer uses the following command (broken across multiple lines
for readability) to execute Chef:
```
{{if .Sudo}}sudo {{end}}chef-client \
--no-color \
-c {{.ConfigPath}} \
-j {{.JsonPath}}
```
This command can be customized using the `execute_command` configuration.
As you can see from the default value above, the value of this configuration
can contain various template variables, defined below:
* `ConfigPath` - The path to the Chef configuration file.
file.
* `JsonPath` - The path to the JSON attributes file for the node.
* `Sudo` - A boolean of whether to `sudo` the command or not, depending on
the value of the `prevent_sudo` configuration.
## Install Command
By default, Packer uses the following command (broken across multiple lines
for readability) to install Chef. This command can be customized if you want
to install Chef in another way.
```
curl -L https://www.opscode.com/chef/install.sh | \
{{if .Sudo}}sudo{{end}} bash
```
This command can be customized using the `install_command` configuration.
