Provides LWRP's and service recipes to install and configure Sensu, a monitoring framework.

This cookbook provides the building blocks for creating a monitoring cookbook specific to your environment (wrapper). Without such a wrapper, no Sensu configuration files will be created for your nodes.

An example wrapper cookbook can be found HERE.

How to Write Reusable Chef Cookbooks

This cookbook comes with a Gemfile, Cheffile, and a Vagrantfile for testing and evaluating Sensu.

cd examples
gem install bundler
bundle install
librarian-chef install
vagrant up
vagrant ssh

• APT
• YUM
• Windows
• RabbitMQ
• RedisIO

NOTE: This cookbook either constrains its dependencies optimistically (>=) or not at all. You're strongly encouraged to more strictly manage these dependencies in your wrapper cookbook.

This cookbook makes no attempt to manage the versions of its package dependencies. If you desire or require management of these versions, you should handle these via your wrapper cookbook.

Running Sensu with SSL is recommended; this cookbook uses a data bag sensu, with an item ssl, containing the SSL certificates required. Sensu data bag items may be encrypted. This cookbook comes with a tool to generate the certificates and data bag item. If the integrity of the certificates is ever compromised, you must regenerate and redeploy them.

cd examples/ssl
./ssl_certs.sh generate
knife data bag create sensu

Use the plain-text data bag item:

knife data bag from file sensu ssl.json

Or, encrypt it with your data bag secret. See Encrypt a Data Bag for more information.

knife data bag --secret-file /path/to/your/secret from file sensu ssl.json

./ssl_certs.sh clean

Installs Sensu and creates a base configuration file, intended to be extended. This recipe must be included before any of the Sensu LWRP's can be used. This recipe does not enable or start any services.

Installs and configures RabbitMQ for Sensu, from configuring SSL to creating a vhost and credentials. This recipe relies heavily on the community RabbitMQ cookbook LWRP's.

Installs and configures Redis for Sensu. This recipe uses the RedisIO cookbook and installs Redis from source.

Installs and configures Sensu Enterprise.

Enables and starts the Sensu server.

Enables and starts the Sensu client.

Enables and starts the Sensu API.

Enables and starts Sensu Enterprise.
