Merge features from optiflows-cookbooks/vsftpd

[guilhem]

Hi @TheSerapher

I'm happy to see a updated cookbook for vsftpd.

Months ago I forked https://github.com/cwjohnston/chef-vsftpd to https://github.com/optiflows-cookbooks/vsftpd and updates some parts.

It would be cool to merge some features like LWRP for virtual users etc.

I think that's a great idea. I can look into it or you can even PR the changes. I will merge into next and adjust if needed.

I just checked your cookbook @guilhem and I like it. A lot of additions that I never got around to add (like CB included user management, very nice). Mine was pretty basic and did what I needed back then, but it sure could need some love to make it usable for others too.

Maybe your version should be used instead? That is if you are able to maintain it.

[guilhem]

@TheSerapher My version is more advanced in some points yes. but need some improvements.
If you want, I can make it even better (some syntax to clean up) then push it on: http://github.com/redguide (I push there cookbooks to be maintain without any personal/enterprise problem/ego) then add you as contributor for any further update.

[TheSerapher]

That sounds great. Maybe we can even get Supermarket permissions placed on our project instead so we can start uploading it for others to use.

hi @TheSerapher
I didn't really understand you last message ^^
But in the meantime I've updated my cookbook with some cool features like auto generated vsftpd.conf \o/ (and correct all foodcritic / rubocop issues 👼 ).

Supermarket.getchef.com

It's used by tools like knife and berkshelf to auto discover a cookbook. Currently the vsftp cookbook there is probably and older outdated version.

I shall take a look at your cookbook. If that works well we can close my repo and I point them towards yours.

@TheSerapher I believe the only way currently to change ownership of the vsftp cookbook on supermarket.getchef.com is to reach out to the current owner and ask him/her to change ownership.

[TheSerapher]

Thanks for the info, that will probably make it rather complicated since I am not sure if that user is reachable or active at all ..

[damacus]

I shall try and get you some details, apparently he is very approachable, so I'm sure we can work something out :)

Looks like there are some contact details on his github profile: https://github.com/rberger
