This cookbook expects vim and git to be available but does not provide resources or recipes for installing them.

Attributes

N/A

Resources

pathogen_base

The pathogen_base resource manages the basic installation of pathogen.

Properties

users - A list of users for whom pathogen should be installed. Required.

Example

pathogen_base 'install pathogen!' do 
  users ['root', 'vagrant']
end

pathogen_plugin

Installs plugins that can be found on GitHub. The "name property" of the resource is the name of the plugin.

Properties

github_org - The name of the GitHub organization or user that houses the repo.
users - A list of users for whom pathogen should be installed. Required.

Example

pathogen_plugin 'ctrlp.vim' do
  github_org 'ctrlpvim'
  users ['root', 'vagrant']
end

Add depends 'pathogen' to your metadata.rb.
Go buck wild with the above two resources in your recipe of choice.

pathogen_plugin does not transfer ownership

Installing a plugin (like below) as a different user does not chown the cloned repo.

pathogen_plugin 'nerdtree' do
  github_org 'scrooloose'
  users ['foo'] 
end

When 'foo' runs a subsequent vim command like :helptags ~/.vim/bundle/nerdtree/doc/, the command fails with insufficient directory permissions.

E152: Cannot open /home/vagrant/.vim/bundle/nerdtree/doc/tags for writing

Upgrading chef-client 13.6.4 -> 14.0.190 breaks pathogen_base

Running pathogen_base with Vagrant's chef-solo provisioner started breaking for me. Fixing the chef-version to match the ChefDK's[1] (chef.version = '13.6.4') works around the issue for me. Below is the error snippet.

[1] I had been using the ChefDK earlier, and recalled that pathogen_base worked for me then.
