Announcing the release of ChefDK 1.0

We’re happy to announce the release of ChefDK 1.0.3! The decision to promote ChefDK to 1.0 was made with input from the community at the 2016 Chef Community Summit in Seattle – a reflection of ChefDK’s maturity and stability.

Release Highlights

Foodcritic

• Foodcritic constraint updated to require v8.0 or greater.
• Supermarket Foodcritic rules are now disabled by default when you run chef generate cookbook.

Inspec

• The inspec command is now included in the PATH managed by ChefDK. Just run chef shell-init to update your PATH!

Please see the CHANGELOG.md for the complete list of changes.
