If you’ve recently forked the ey-cloud-recipes on GitHub and then had issues
managing and deploying multiple projects with disparate dependencies using the
single forked gem, then we have a solution that has worked well on a recent project.
We’ve tucked the cookbooks directory underneath our Rails project. To apply Chef
changes, we installed the ‘engineyard’ gem and us ‘ey recipes upload’ and
‘ey recipes apply’ from within our Rails project.
Upside, everything you need to know about the project is local to the project.
