Deprecation: Verify File Expansion (CHEF-7)¶
The verify
metaproperty allows the user to specify a {path}
variable that is expanded to the path of the file to be verified. Previously, it was possible to use {file}
as the variable, but that is now deprecated.
The {file}
expansion was deprecated in Chef 12.5, and will be removed in Chef 13.
Example¶
file '/etc/nginx.conf' do
verify 'nginx -t -c %{file}'
end
Remediation¶
Replace %{file}
with %{path}
:
file '/etc/nginx.conf' do
verify 'nginx -t -c %{path}'
end
