Installs development package for libxml.

nokogiri is now included in Chef so this cookbook has been deprecated. If a more useful purpose can be come up with for the namespace we will gladly revive it

• Debian/Ubuntu
• RHEL/CentOS/Scientific/Amazon/Oracle
• Suse
• FreeBSD

• Chef 12.1+

• build-essential

• node['xml']['packages'] - Array of package names that should be installed
• node['xml']['nokogiri']['use_system_libraries'] - Whether to use system libraries for nokogiri (defaults to false)

Installs the development packages for libxml2 and libxslt.

For installing the packages during compile time:

node.normal['xml']['compiletime'] = true
include_recipe 'xml::default'

Installs the nokogiri gem into Chef's Ruby environment so it can be used in recipes. If nokogiri is being installed using the system's libxml package your distro must include version 2.6.21 or later. Due to this Debian 7 or earlier / Ubuntu 12.04 or earlier will not work with the system library attribute enabled.
