attribute structure that I like

attribs.rb

attributes:

  default['winsecureos']['services']['foo'] = {
      :action => [ :stop, :disable ],
      :name => 'ALG',
      :description => 'Application Layer Gateway Service'}

  default['winsecureos']['services']['foo1'] = {
      :action => [ :stop, :manual ],
      :name => 'AppMgmt',
      :description => 'Application Management'}


Recipe:

node['winsecureos']['services'].each do |key, value|
  ge_win_services value.description do
        name            value.name
        description     value.description
        action          value.action
    end
end
