How to move/copy files locally with Chef

Question

I haven\'t yet come across a Chef resource that will copy/move files locally. For example, I want to download jetty hightide and unzip it. Once done, copy all the files into

Answer 1

I got it working by using bash resource as below:

bash "install_jettyhightide" do
  code <<-EOL
  unzip /var/tmp/jetty-hightide-7.4.5.v20110725.zip -d /opt/jetty/
  mv /opt/jetty/jetty-hightide-7.4.5.v20110725/* /opt/jetty/
  cp /opt/jetty/bin/jetty.sh /etc/init.d/jetty
  update-rc.d jetty defaults
  EOL
end

But I was really hoping for a chef way of doing it. copying/moving files locally would be the most generic task a sysadmin will need to do.
