<p>Performs a Chef Bootstrap on the target node. The goal of the bootstrap
is to get Chef installed on the target system so it can run Chef Client
with a Chef Server. The main assumption is a baseline OS installation
exists. This sub-command is used internally by some cloud computing
server create commands and the others will be migrated in a future
version of Chef.</p>
<p>The bootstrap sub-command supports supplying a template to perform the
bootstrap steps. If the distro is not specified (via <code>-d</code> or <code>--distro</code>
option), an Ubuntu 10.04 host bootstrapped with RubyGems is assumed. The
<strong>DISTRO</strong> value corresponds to the base filename of the template, in
other words <code>DISTRO</code>.erb. A template file can be specified with the
<code>--template-file</code> option in which case the <strong>DISTRO</strong> is not used. The
sub-command looks in the following locations for the template to use:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>bootstrap</code> directory in the installed Chef Knife library.</li>
<li><code>bootstrap</code> directory in the <code>$PWD/.chef</code>.</li>
<li><code>bootstrap</code> directory in the users <code>$HOME/.chef</code>.</li>
</ul>
<p>The default bootstrap templates are scripts that get copied to the target node (FQDN). As of Chef 0.9.8, the following distros are supported:</p>
<ul>
<li>centos5-gems</li>
<li>fedora13-gems</li>
<li>ubuntu10.04-gems</li>
<li>ubuntu10.04-apt</li>
</ul>
<p>The gems installations will use RubyGems 1.3.6 and Chef installed as a gem. The apt installation will use the Opscode APT repository. The RubyGems installation requires installing gems with native extensions, so development related packages (ruby-dev, build-essential) are installed. These are not installed with the apt installation, as native extensions are already compiled in the required packages.</p>
<p>In addition to handling the software installation, these bootstrap templates do the following:</p>
<ul>
<li>Write the validation.pem per the local knife configuration.</li>
<li>Write a default config file for Chef (<code>/etc/chef/client.rb</code>) using values from the <code>knife.rb</code>.</li>
<li>Create a JSON attributes file containing the specified run list and run Chef.</li>
</ul>
<p>In the case of the RubyGems, the <code>client.rb</code> will be written from scratch with a minimal set of values; see <strong>EXAMPLES</strong>. In the case of APT Package installation, <code>client.rb</code> will have the <code>validation_client_name</code> appended if it is not set to <code>chef-validator</code> (default config value), and the <code>node_name</code> will be added if <code>chef_node_name</code> option is specified.</p>
<p>When this is complete, the bootstrapped node will have:</p>
<ul>
<li>Latest Chef version installed from RubyGems or APT Packages from Opscode. This may be a later version than the local system.</li>
<li>Be validated with the configured Chef Server.</li>
<li>Have run Chef with its default run list if one is specfied.</li>
</ul>
<p>Additional custom bootstrap templates can be created and stored in <code>.chef/bootstrap/DISTRO.erb</code>, replacing <strong>DISTRO</strong> with the value passed with the <code>-d</code> or <code>--distro</code> option. See <strong>EXAMPLES</strong> for more information.</p>
