I have a ruby script that references a databag's attributes. I would like to know if there is a way to reference databag attributes inside of a databag. Then, when i reference the databag attribute inside of my script, it would point me to another databag's attribute.

  • I apologize if I did a bad job renaming your post. Maybe it needs to specify you are using one databag to reference another. However I think the essential question is about parsing databag content, so maybe the title I gave is okay. – Smandoli May 27 '14 at 18:33

No. Data bags are just JSON. They are not a programming language, so this is not possible.
