FilePermissions is a Ruby library providing an object representation of the file permission bits in POSIX systems. It can handle the generic read, write and execute permissions, as well as the setuid, setgid and sticky flags. Permission sets can be read from file system objects, parsed from typical string representations or simply defined by their numeric representation. They can then be manipulated through binary logic operators and written back to file system objects.

This gem provides a robust system for managing Unix-like permissions in Ruby. It allows for setting, querying, and serializing permission sets with an ActiveRecord integration for easy database storage.

Simple permissions that I have used on my last several projects so I figured it was time to abstract and wrap up into something more easily reusable.

Aegis is a role-based permission system, where all users are given a role. It is possible to define detailed and complex permissions for each role very easily.

= DESCRIPTION: Provides a Chef handler which can report run status, including any changes that were made, to a Graylog2 server. In the case of failed runs a backtrace will be included in the details reported. = REQUIREMENTS: * A Graylog2 server running somewhere. = USAGE: This example makes of the chef_handler cookbook, place some thing like this in cookbooks/chef_handler/recipes/gelf.rb and add it to your run list. It also assumes your Graylog2 server has set the attribute rsyslog_server to true. log_server = search(:node, "rsyslog_server:true").first if log_server include_recipe "chef_handler::default" gem_package "chef-gelf" do action :nothing end.run_action(:install) # Make sure the newly installed Gem is loaded. Gem.clear_paths require 'chef/gelf' chef_handler "Chef::GELF::Handler" do source "chef/gelf" arguments({ :server => log_server['fqdn'] }) supports :exception => true, :report => true end.run_action(:enable) end Arguments take the form of an options hash, with the following options: * :server - The server to send messages to. * :port (12201) - The port to send on. * :facility (chef-client) - The facility to report under. * :host (node.fqdn) - The host to report messages as coming from. * :blacklist ({}) - A hash of cookbooks, resources and actions to ignore in the change list. = BLACKLISTING: Some resources report themselves as having updated on every run even if nothing changed, or are just things you don't care about. To reduce the amount of noise in your logs these can be ignored by providing a blacklist. In this example we don't want to be told about the GELF handler being activated: chef_handler "Chef::GELF::Handler" do source "chef/gelf" arguments({ :server => log_server['fqdn'], :blacklist => { "chef_handler" => { "chef_handler" => [ "nothing", "enable" ] } } }) supports :exception => true, :report => true end.run_action(:enable) = LICENSE and AUTHOR: Author:: Jon Wood (<jon@blankpad.net>) Copyright:: 2011, Blank Pad Development Licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0 (the "License"); you may not use this file except in compliance with the License.

YamlDb is a database-independent format for dumping and restoring data. It complements the the database-independent schema format found in db/schema.rb. The data is saved into db/data.yml. This can be used as a replacement for mysqldump or pg_dump, but only for the databases typically used by Rails apps. Users, permissions, schemas, triggers, and other advanced database features are not supported - by design. Any database that has an ActiveRecord adapter should work
