Description

Installs avahi and provides a simple LWRP for managing avahi hostname aliases.

This is mostly useful for establishing DNS names for local VMs without having to manually manage one's /etc/hosts file.

Requirements

Only works on Ubuntu for now.

Attributes

• hostname: optional hostname, defaults to nil
• domain: domain suffix, defaults to 'local'
• browse_domains: additional search domains, defaults to []
• use_ipv4: defaults to true
• use_ipv6: defaults to true
• allow_interfaces: list of interfaces to listen on defaults to [] (all interfaces)
• deny_interfaces: list of interfaces to explicitly ignore defaults to [] (no interfaces)

Usage

include_recipe 'avahi'

avahi_alias 'foo.bar.local'
