DEPRECATION NOTICE

This should still work for some installs, but I'm no longer actively developing it - I've switched to Team Docker for my personal OpenHAB needs.

I'll still happily merge any PR's, but if anyone wants to take over maintainance of this, I'm happy to hand it over!

openhab-cookbook

This installs openhab and selected plugins. You can either install via the debian packages, or from source.

NOTE: This is only for versions 1.x of openhab. When I move to OpenHAB 2, I'll start a openhab2 cookbook.

Dependencies

• Cookbooks:
  • apt
  • java
• On the system:
• apt updated (including apt in the run-list will do this)
• java 8 installed
  • this cookbook will install java for you by default - make sure to set the attributes for oracle v8

Supported Platforms

Tested succesful on:

• Ubuntu 12.04
• Ubuntu 14.04
• Raspbian (source-only)

Recipies

• openhab - Installs openhab
• openhab::init_script - Installs openhab init.d script
• openhab::my_openhab - Installs my.openhab addon .jar
• openhab::habmin - Installs HABmin console

Usage

• 1. Make sure you have Java setup:

{
  attributes: {
    java: {
      install_flavor: 'oracle',
      jdk_version: '8',
      oracle: {accept_oracle_download_terms: true}
    }
  }
}

• 2. Pick some plugins:

{
  attributes: {
    openhab: {
      plugins: %w{binding-xbmc action-xbmc binding-twitter persistance-mysql}
    }
  }
}

• 3. Include openhab in your node's run_list:

{
  "run_list": [
    "recipe[apt]",
    "recipe[openhab]"
  ]
}

• 4. ???
• 5. Profit!

You now have OpenHAB installed. If you did it from the packages, you have the init.d script set up and openhab running already.

Init script

If you want to install an init.d script for booting, use the openhab::init_script recipie. Currently only Raspbian is supported.

my.openhab plugin

If you want to install the myOpenHABplugin, run the openhab::my_openhab recipie - it will place the requested .jar in the addons dir.

You'll still need to set/get the uuid/secret registration yourself.
