This is **not**\nthe Opscode *users* cookbook.\n\n* Website: http://fnichol.github.io/chef-user/\n* Opscode Community Site: http://community.opscode.com/cookbooks/user\n* Source Code: https://github.com/fnichol/chef-user\n\n## <a name=\"usage\"></a> Usage\n\nSimply include this cookbook as a dependency in `metadata.rb` and the `user_account`\nresource will be available. Example:\n\n    # In your_cookbook/metadata.rb\n    depends 'user'\n\n    # In your_cookbook/recipes/default.rb\n    user_account 'hsolo' do\n        ssh_keygen true\n    end\n\nTo use `recipe[user::data_bag]`, include it in your run\\_list and have a\ndata bag called `\"users\"` with an item like the following:\n\n    {\n      \"id\"        : \"hsolo\",\n      \"comment\"   : \"Han Solo\",\n      \"home\"      : \"/opt/hoth/hsolo\",\n      \"groups\"    : [\"admin\", \"www-data\"],\n      \"ssh_keys\"  : [\"123...\", \"456...\"]\n    }\n\nor a user to be removed:\n\n    {\n      \"id\"      : \"lando\",\n      \"action\"  : \"remove\"\n    }\n\nIf you have a username containing a period, use a dash in the data bag item\nand set a `username` attribute:\n\n    {\n      \"id\"        : \"luke-skywalker\",\n      \"username\"  : \"luke.skywalker\",\n      \"action\"    : [\"create\", \"lock\"]\n    }\n\nThe data bag recipe will iterate through a list of usernames defined in\n`node['users']` (by default) and attempt to pull in the user's information\nfrom the data bag item. In other words, having:\n\n    node['users'] = ['hsolo', 'lando', 'luke.skywalker']\n\nwill set up the `hsolo` user information and not use the `lando` user\ninformation.\n\n## <a name=\"requirements\"></a> Requirements\n\n### <a name=\"requirements-chef\"></a> Chef\n\nTested on 0.10.8 but newer and older version should work just fine. File an\n[issue][issues] if this isn't the case.\n\n### <a name=\"requirements-platform\"></a> Platform\n\nThe following platforms have been tested with this cookbook, meaning that the\nrecipes run on these platforms without error:\n\n* ubuntu\n* debian\n* mac_os_x\n\n### <a name=\"requirements-cookbooks\"></a> Cookbooks\n\nThere are **no** external cookbook dependencies.\n\n## <a name=\"installation\"></a> Installation\n\nDepending on the situation and use case there are several ways to install\nthis cookbook. All the methods listed below assume a tagged version release\nis the target, but omit the tags to get the head of development. A valid\nChef repository structure like the [Opscode repo][chef_repo] is also assumed.\n\n### <a name=\"installation-platform\"></a> From the Community Site\n\nTo install this cookbook from the Community Site, use the *knife* command:\n\n    knife cookbook site install user\n\n### <a name=\"installation-berkshelf\"></a> Using Berkshelf\n\n[Berkshelf][berkshelf] is a cookbook dependency manager and development\nworkflow assistant. To install Berkshelf:\n\n    cd chef-repo\n    gem install berkshelf\n    berks init\n\nTo use the Community Site version:\n\n    echo \"cookbook 'user'\" >> Berksfile\n    berks install\n\nOr to reference the Git version:\n\n    repo=\"fnichol/chef-user\"\n    latest_release=$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/$repo/git/refs/tags \\\n    | ruby -rjson -e '\n      j = JSON.parse(STDIN.read);\n      puts j.map { |t| t[\"ref\"].split(\"/\").last }.sort.last\n    ')\n    cat >> Berksfile <<END_OF_BERKSFILE\n    cookbook 'user',\n      :git => 'git://github.com/$repo.git', :branch => '$latest_release'\n    END_OF_BERKSFILE\n    berks install\n\n### <a name=\"installation-librarian\"></a> Using Librarian-Chef\n\n[Librarian-Chef][librarian] is a bundler for your Chef cookbooks.\nTo install Librarian-Chef:\n\n    cd chef-repo\n    gem install librarian\n    librarian-chef init\n\nTo use the Opscode platform version:\n\n    echo \"cookbook 'user'\" >> Cheffile\n    librarian-chef install\n\nOr to reference the Git version:\n\n    repo=\"fnichol/chef-user\"\n    latest_release=$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/$repo/git/refs/tags \\\n    | ruby -rjson -e '\n      j = JSON.parse(STDIN.read);\n      puts j.map { |t| t[\"ref\"].split(\"/\").last }.sort.last\n    ')\n    cat >> Cheffile <<END_OF_CHEFFILE\n    cookbook 'user',\n      :git => 'git://github.com/$repo.git', :ref => '$latest_release'\n    END_OF_CHEFFILE\n    librarian-chef install\n\n## <a name=\"recipes\"></a> Recipes\n\n### <a name=\"recipes-default\"></a> default\n\nThis recipe is a no-op and does nothing.\n\n### <a name=\"recipes-data-bag\"></a> data_bag\n\nProcesses a list of users with data drawn from a data bag.

Each resource\ncan override this value. The are 2 valid states:\n\n* `\"true\"`, `true`, or `\"yes\"`: will manage the user's home directory.\n* `\"false\"`, `false`, or `\"no\"`: will not manage the user's home directory.\n\nThe default is `true`.\n\n### <a name=\"attributes-non-unique\"></a> non_unique\n\nWhether of not to allow the creation of a user account with a duplicate UID.\nEach resource can override this value. The are 2 valid states:\n\n* `\"true\"`, `true`, or `\"yes\"`: will allow duplicate UIDs.\n* `\"false\"`, `false`, or `\"no\"`: will not allow duplicate UIDs.\n\nThe default is `false`.\n\n### <a name=\"attributes-create-user-group\"></a> create_group\n\nWhether or not to to create a group with the same name as the user by default.\nEach resource can override this value.
