iis_root 'add stuff' do
  add_default_documents ['foo.html']
  add_mime_maps ["fileExtension='.dmg',mimeType='application/octet-stream'"]
  action :add
end
# Remove index.html from default document and .323 as a mime type at root level

iis_site

Allows for easy management of IIS virtual sites (ie vhosts).

Actions

  • :add - add a new virtual site
  • :config - apply configuration to an existing virtual site
  • :delete - delete an existing virtual site
  • :start - start a virtual site
  • :stop - stop a virtual site
  • :restart - restart a virtual site

Attribute Parameters

  • site_name - name attribute.
  • site_id - if not given IIS generates a unique ID for the site
  • path - IIS will create a root application and a root virtual directory mapped to this specified local path
  • protocol - http protocol type the site should respond to. valid values are :http, :https. default is :http
  • port - port site will listen on. default is 80
  • host_header - host header (also known as domains or host names) the site should map to. default is all host headers
  • options - additional options to configure the site
  • bindings - Advanced options to configure the information required for requests to communicate with a Web site. See http://www.iis.net/configreference/system.applicationhost/sites/site/bindings/binding for parameter format. When binding is used, port protocol and host_header should not be used.
  • application_pool - set the application pool of the site
  • options - support for additional options -logDir, -limits, -ftpServer, etc...
  • log_directory - specifies the logging directory, where the log file and logging-related support files are stored.
  • log_period - specifies how often iis creates a new log file
  • log_truncsize - specifies the maximum size of the log file (in bytes) after which to create a new log file.

Examples

# stop and delete the default site
iis_site 'Default Web Site' do
  action [:stop, :delete]
end
# create and start a new site that maps to
# the physical location C:\inetpub\wwwroot\testfu
# first the physical location must exist
directory "#{node['iis']['docroot']}/testfu" do
  action :create
end

# now create and start the site (note this will use the default application pool which must exist)
iis_site 'Testfu Site' do
  protocol :http
  port 80
  path "#{node['iis']['docroot']}/testfu"
  action [:add,:start]
end
# do the same but map to testfu.chef.io domain
# first the physical location must exist
directory "#{node['iis']['docroot']}/testfu" do
  action :create
end

# now create and start the site (note this will use the default application pool which must exist)
iis_site 'Testfu Site' do
  protocol :http
  port 80
  path "#{node['iis']['docroot']}/testfu"
  host_header "testfu.chef.io"
  action [:add,:start]
end
# create and start a new site that maps to
# the physical C:\inetpub\wwwroot\testfu
# first the physical location must exist
directory "#{node['iis']['docroot']}/testfu" do
  action :create
end

# also adds bindings to http and https
# binding http to the ip address 10.12.0.136,

end

iis_app

Creates an application in IIS.

Actions

  • :add - add a new application pool
  • :delete - delete an existing application pool

Attribute Parameters

  • site_name - name attribute. The name of the site to add this app to
  • path -The virtual path for this application
  • application_pool - The pool this application belongs to
  • physical_path - The physical path where this app resides.
  • enabled_protocols - The enabled protocols that this app provides (http, https, net.pipe, net.tcp, etc)

Example

# creates a new app
iis_app "myApp" do
  path "/v1_1"
  application_pool "myAppPool_v1_1"
  physical_path "#{node['iis']['docroot']}/testfu/v1_1"

end

iis_vdir

Allows easy management of IIS virtual directories (i.e. vdirs).

Actions

  • :add: - add a new virtual directory
  • :delete: - delete an existing virtual directory
  • :config: - configure a virtual directory

Attribute Parameters

  • application_name: name attribute. Specifies the name of the application attribute. This is the name of the website or application you are adding it to.
  • path: The virtual directory path on the site.
  • physical_path: The physical path of the virtual directory on the disk.
  • username: (optional) The username required to logon to the physical_path. If set to "" will clear username and password.
  • password: (optional) The password required to logon to the physical_path

  • allow_sub_dir_config: (optional, default: true) Boolean that specifies whether or not the Web server will look for configuration files located in the subdirectories of this virtual directory. Setting this to false can improve performance on servers with very large numbers of web.config files, but doing so prevents IIS configuration from being read in subdirectories.

Examples

# add a virtual directory to default application
iis_vdir 'Default Web Site/' do
  action :add
  path '/Content/Test'
  physical_path 'C:\wwwroot\shared\test'
end
# add a virtual directory to an application under a site
iis_vdir 'Default Web Site/my application' do
  action :add
  path '/Content/Test'
  physical_path 'C:\wwwroot\shared\test'
end
# adds a virtual directory to default application which points to a smb share. (Remember to escape the "\"'s)
iis_vdir 'Default Web Site/' do
  action :add
  path '/Content/Test'
  physical_path '\\\\sharename\\sharefolder\\1'
end
# configure a virtual directory to have a username and password
iis_vdir 'Default Web Site/' do
  action :config
  path '/Content/Test'
  username 'domain\myspecialuser'
  password 'myspecialpassword'
end
# delete a virtual directory from the default application
iis_vdir 'Default Web Site/' do
  action :delete
  path '/Content/Test'
end

end
# Sets the IIS global Basic authentication to be locked globally
iis_section 'locks global configuration of Basic auth' do
  section 'system.webServer/security/authentication/basicAuthentication'
  action :lock
end
# Sets the IIS global windows authentication to be unlocked globally

  action :add
end
# Adds a module called "MyModule" to all IIS sites on the server
iis_module "MyModule"

Usage

default

Installs and configures IIS 7.0/7.5/8.0 using the default configuration.

mod_*

This cookbook also contains recipes for installing individual IIS modules (extensions). These recipes can be included in a node's run_list to build the minimal desired custom IIS installation.

  • mod_aspnet - installs ASP.NET runtime components
  • mod_aspnet45 - installs ASP.NET 4.5 runtime components
  • mod_auth_basic - installs Basic Authentication support
  • mod_auth_windows - installs Windows Authentication (authenticate clients by using NTLM or Kerberos) support
  • mod_compress_dynamic - installs dynamic content compression support. PLEASE NOTE - enabling dynamic compression always gives you more efficient use of bandwidth, but if your server's processor utilization is already very high, the CPU load imposed by dynamic compression might make your site perform more slowly.
  • mod_compress_static - installs static content compression support
  • mod_iis6_metabase_compat - installs IIS 6 Metabase Compatibility component.
  • mod_isapi - installs ISAPI (Internet Server Application Programming Interface) extension and filter support.
  • mod_logging - installs and enables HTTP Logging (logging of Web site activity), Logging Tools (logging tools and scripts) and Custom Logging (log any of the HTTP request/response headers, IIS server variables, and client-side fields with simple configuration) support
  • mod_management - installs Web server Management Console which supports management of local and remote Web servers
  • mod_security - installs URL Authorization (Authorizes client access to the URLs that comprise a Web application), Request Filtering (configures rules to block selected client requests) and IP Security (allows or denies content access based on IP address or domain name) support.
  • mod_tracing - installs support for tracing ASP.NET applications and failed requests.

Note: Not every possible IIS module has a corresponding recipe. The foregoing recipes are included for convenience, but users may also place additional IIS modules that are installable as Windows features into the node['iis']['components'] array.
