Chef handler to report chef run statistics to Honeycomb
Steps to use this cookbook to report statistics to Honeycomb
- put your writekey in the attributes file, update dataset name if you wish
- add the cookbook early in the list (first is great)
- add the commented section from the recipes/default.rb to client.rb or other location ** See Chef's config.rb documentation
run chef and see reports in Honeycomb!
If things don't work as you expect, you can add -l debug
to the chef run. You
will see debug output which will include the HTTP POST to Honeycomb and its
results. Look for DEBUG: Initiating POST
in the log. If you don't see
anything in Honeycomb, try using this flag and look to see whether Honeycomb is
responding with HTTP 200.
