Hi,
In the documentation, it shows that chef_run_list is an array of strings. I have tried every single combination of strings that make sense and I get one of three errors:

• go unmarshalling error
• chef-solo error where it doesnt understand the list of cookbooks
• chef-solo error where the run list is empty

I have had to resort tomaking a role.
If possible, please provide the proper syntax for passing in a runlist of two cookbooks ie:

• bingo::default
• bongo::default

or

• recipe[bingo]
• recipe[bongo]

thank you, its really appreciated!
