ResourceInheritsFromCompatResource

All Cookstyle Cops

The department is: Chef/Deprecations

The full name of the cop is: Chef/Deprecations/ResourceInheritsFromCompatResource

Resources written in the class based HWRP style should inherit from the ‘Chef::Resource’ class and not the ‘ChefCompat::Resource’ class from the deprecated compat_resource cookbook.

Examples

class AptUpdate < ChefCompat::Resource
  # some resource code
end

correct

class AptUpdate < Chef::Resource
  # some resource code
end
