jvmargs Chef Tool
A painless parser of java command-line arguments
Managing Java command-line arguments is a pain in the ass. I have felt this pain in the many, many chef cookbooks I have written for java applications. This parser does not handle all aspects of a java program invocation. It does not find the java executable for you, nor does it handle any argument that is space delimited.
