========================================
## SYNOPSIS
__chef-server__ _(options)_
* `-u`, `--user USER`:
This flag is for having chef-server-webui run as a user other than the
one currently logged in. Note: if you set this you must also provide a
--group option for it to take effect.
* `-G`, `--group GROUP`:
This flag is for having chef-server-webui run as a group other than the
one currently logged in. Note: if you set this you must also provide a
--user option for it to take effect.
* `-d`, `--daemonize`:
This will run a single chef-server-webui in the background.
* `-N`, `--no-daemonize`:
This will allow you to run a cluster in console mode.
* `-c`, `--cluster-nodes NUM_MERBS`:
Number of merb daemons to run for chef-server-webui.
* `-I`, `--init-file FILE`:
File to use for initialization on load, defaults to config/init.rb.
* `-p`, `--port PORTNUM`:
Port to run chef-server-webui on, defaults to 4040. Additional nodes (-c)
listen on incrementing port numbers.
* `-o`, `--socket-file FILE`:
Socket file to run chef-server-webui on, defaults to
[Merb.root]/log/merb.sock. This is for web servers, like thin, that use
sockets. Specify this *only* if you *must*.
* `-s`, `--socket SOCKNUM`:
Socket number to run chef-server-webui on, defaults to 0.
* `-n`, `--name NAME`:
Set the name of the application. This is used in the process title and
log file names.
* `-P`, `--pid PIDFILE`:
PID file, defaults to [Merb.root]/log/merb.main.pid for the master
process and[Merb.root]/log/merb.[port number].pid for worker processes.
For clusters, use %s to specify where in the file chef-server-webui
should place the port number. For instance: -P myapp.%s.pid.
* `-h`, `--host HOSTNAME`:
Host to bind to (default is 0.0.0.0).
* `-m`, `--merb-root PATH_TO_APP_ROOT`:
The path to the Merb.root for the app you want to run
(default is current working directory).
* `-a`, `--adapter ADAPTER`:
The rack adapter to use to run chef-server-webui (default is mongrel)
[mongrel, emongrel, thin, ebb, fastcgi, webrick].
* `-R`, `--rackup FILE`:
Load an alternate Rack config file (default is config/rack.rb).
* `-i`, `--irb-console`:
This flag will start chef-server-webui in irb console mode. All your models
and other classes will be available for you in an irb session.
* `-S`, `--sandbox`:
This flag will enable a sandboxed irb console. If your ORM supports
transactions, all edits will be rolled back on exit.
* `-l`, `--log-level LEVEL`:
Log levels can be set to any of these options:
debug < info < warn < error < fatal (default is info).
* `-L`, `--log LOGFILE`:
A string representing the logfile to use. Defaults to
[Merb.root]/log/merb.[main].log for the master process and
[Merb.root]/log/merb[port number].logfor worker processes.
* `-e`, `--environment STRING`:
Environment to run Merb under [development, production, testing]
(default is development).
* `-r`, `--script-runner ['RUBY CODE'| FULL_SCRIPT_PATH]`:
Command-line option to run scripts and/or code in the chef-server-webui
app.
* `-K`, `-graceful PORT or all`:
Gracefully kill chef-server-webui proceses by port number.
Use chef-server -K all to gracefully kill all merbs.
* `-k`, `--kill PORT`:
Force kill one merb worker by port number. This will cause the worker
to be respawned.
* `--fast-deploy`:
Reload the code, but not yourinit.rb or gems.
* `-X`, `--mutex on/off`:
This flag is for turning the mutex lock on and off.
* `-D`, `--debugger`:
Run chef-server-webui using rDebug.
* `-V`, `--verbose`:
Print extra information.

Enter an irb console on ^C.
* `-?`, `-H`, `--help`:
Show this help message.
## DESCRIPTION
The Chef Server provides a central point for the distribution of Cookbooks,
management and authentication of Nodes, and the use of Search. It provides
a REST API.
The API service is what clients use to interact with the server to manage
node configuration in Chef. By default, the service is started on port 4000
as a Merb application slice running with the thin server adapter.
The two methods of interaction with the API for humans are the command-line
tool Knife and the Management Console. The Chef Client library is used for
interacting with the API for client nodes.
