+# Shoestrap
+
+Shoestrap is a simple framework to bootstrap *nix machines.
+
+It speaks Bash so there's virtually no learning curve. More importantly, you
+won't have to learn yet another DSL. Shoestrap aims to get out of your way.
+
+You should be able to get up and running in minutes, not hours.
+
+
+## What about Chef, Puppet and co.?
+
+Chef and Puppet are great tools, but they are too complex for most use cases.
+The learning curve for these tools is quite steep as they each have their own
+DSL. On the other end, Shoestrap is just Bash. It does not require any
+'Bash to config files' translation.
+
+I believe Shoestrap is a great simple alternative to Chef or Puppet that will
+fulfill the needs of most people.
+
+
+## Terminology
+
+Shoestrap uses some of the Chef terminology since I couldn't come up with
+better names or analogies.
+
+### Cookbook
+
+A cookbook is a Bash script that executes different actions. For example,
+it may install packages, run 'recipes'. Think of it as a dispatcher.
+
+Cookbooks live at the root of your Shoestrap project. You can have multiple
+cookbooks per project.
+
+### Recipes
+
+Recipes are snippets of Bash code that can be executed from a Cookbook. For
+example, you may have a recipe to install `memcached`, or a recipe to setup
+SSH keys on the target machine. Remember, it's just Bash, so anything goes.
+
+### Assets
+
+An asset is a file that will be needed by the target machine. For example,
+a configuration file or an init script.
+
+
+## Helpers
+
+Shoestrap ships with many Bash helpers functions. They can be found in
+`helpers/default`. You do NOT need to use the built-in helper functions,
+but they will simplify many of the most common tasks you'll need to perform.
+
+Helper functions can be used from cookbooks or recipes. You may also pass
+arguments to these functions.
+
+You may add your own helper functions in `helpers/custom`.
+
+Here are some of the most commonly used helpers:
+
+#### `add_line`
+Concatenate a line to a text file if it's not already there.
+
+#### `add_user`
+Add a user to the system.
+
+#### `copy`
+Copy an asset file. It first looks in the assets/{cookbook} directory and falls back to assets/default if file doesn't exist.
+
+#### `error`
+Write an error to the screen and halt execution.
+
+#### `is_installed`
+Check if an element has already been installed. Useful to prevent code from running more than once. Also see `set_installed`.
+
+#### `log`
+Write a line to the screen.
+
+#### `package`
+Install a package (ie: apt-get install {package-name}).
+
+#### `package_update`
+Update packages in package manager (ie: apt-get update).
+
+#### `recipe`
+Run a recipe. It first looks in the recipes/{cookbook} directory and falls back to recipes/default if file doesn't exist.
+
+#### `set_installed`
+Sets an element as 'installed'.
+
+
+## Getting Started
+
+1.  Clone the `shoestrap` repo to your local machine.
+    `git clone https://github.com/cmer/shoestrap.git`
+
+2.  Rename `./my-cookbook` to something a little bit more meaningful. For example,
+    you might want to call your cookbook `web` if it bootstraps a web server. Make
+    sure it is executable (`chmod +x {my-cookbook}`).
+
+3.  Specify actions to take in the cookbook. For example, which recipes to run, which
+    packages to install or which user(s) to add. For example: `recipe 'nginx'`.
+
+4.  Create a recipe file under `recipes/default`. For example: `recipes/default/nginx`. The recipe
+    is the code to execute. In our example, it would be the code to run to install `nginx`.
+
+5.  Add assets (if needed) under `assets/default/{recipe}`. For example: `assets/default/nginx/nginx.conf`.
+
+6.  Upload your project to the target machine. You can use `scp`, Capistrano, Git or whatever you feel
+    comfortable with.
+
+7.  Run your cookbook from the target machine. For example: `sudo ./web`.
+
+
+## Example
+
+You can see a sample project at http://github.com/cmer/shoestrap-example
+
+Browse the source code, it's the best way to familiarize yourself with Shoestrap. It's also a great starting
+point for your own Shoestrap project.
+
+
+## Example: Directory Structure of a Shoestrap Project
+
+    [assets]
+      [default]            # Assets to be used by default
+        [recipe1]          # Assets for 'recipe1'.
+          foo.conf
+          bar.conf
+      [cookbook1]          # Assets for 'cookbook1'. If asset cannot be found here, fallback is 'default'
+        [recipe1]          # Assets for 'recipe1' when executed from 'cookbook1'. Overrides anything in [default].
+          foo.conf
+    [helpers]
+      custom               # Your custom Bash functions and helpers
+      default              # Shoestrap's default helpers
+      initialize           # Initialize script.
+    [recipes]
+      [default]            # Recipes to be used by default
+        recipe1
+        recipe2
+        recipe3
+      [cookbook1]          # Recipes for 'cookbook1'. Overrides anything in [default].
+        recipe1
+    cookbook1              # The cookbook script itself. This is your point of entry to Shoestrap
+
+
+## Compatibility
+
+Shoestrap has only been tested with Ubuntu Oneiric 11.10 but should work with any/most Unix-like
+operating systems. My goal is to support Ubuntu/Debian, CentOS/Red Hat and Mac OS X. I will need
+help from the community to achieve this, however.
