chef-custom-resources

Migrate Chef Infra cookbooks by following a phase-driven workflow from Phase 0 through Phase 7 that guides structure, tests, and verification across platforms. This modernization process replaces legacy libraries with flat, testable resources.

Unified_mode is a modern Chef Infra resource pattern enforced during migration to ensure custom resources execute properties and actions in a unified compile-and-execute phase. It is required for all modernized resources in this workflow.

Yes, full migrations enforce best practices by removing recipes and attributes directories entirely. The workflow replaces legacy patterns with self-contained custom resources, leveraging partials and helper modules to reduce complexity and increase maintainability.

Testing custom resources with ChefSpec and InSpec is integrated into the phase-driven migration workflow. The phases explicitly guide structure, testing, and verification across platforms to ensure modernized resources are fully testable.

The migration workflow ensures no unsupported directories are modified during the process. It targets teams replacing legacy libraries with flat resources, requiring explicit provides declarations for each resource and strict adherence to the phase-driven structure.
