Meez

About

Meez is slang for mise en place

Mise en place is a French phrase which means "putting in place", as in set up. It is used in professional kitchens to refer to organizing and arranging the ingredients (e.g., cuts of meat, relishes, sauces, par-cooked items, spices, freshly chopped vegetables, and other components) that a cook will require for the menu items that he or she expects to prepare during his/her shift.[1] The practice is also effective in home kitchens.

Meez will create an opinionated chef cookbook skeleton complete with testing suite.

Install

Setting the environment variable USE_SYSTEM_GECODE=1 will help speed up builds by using the system gecode rather than compiling it from scratch.

You may need to install gecode on your system: http://www.gecode.org/download.html

for OSX I did

$ cd $( brew --prefix )
$ git checkout 3c5ca25 Library/Formula/gecode.rb
$ brew install gecode
$ brew link gecode

Official

as of version 0.2.0 this is offered as a chefdk plugin.
