I want to install Ghost as my blog. I want the web server, ghost, and OS, all to receive security updates on a regular schedule without me having to muck with it. (I am willing for the blog to sometimes go down because of this.)
I'll eventually want monitoring and alerting, and backups of the blog entries; uploads of the static site to my web hosting company; automatic DNS configuration; updates of the base OS. But for now I'm modest, I just want Ghost and I want updates.
I want to do this all with Chef. I want to write the Ghost cookbook myself, not because the existing Ghost cookbook is bad, but because I want to get a real feel for how these get written.
