The Cookstyle cops department: Chef/Correctness

Chef Infra Client uses properties in several resources to track state. These should not be set in recipes as they break the internal workings of the Chef Infra Client

Examples

# bad
service 'foo' do
  running true
  action [:start, :enable]
end

# good
service 'foo' do
  action [:start, :enable]
end
