Opscode cookbooks (http://github.com/opscode/cookbooks/tree/master)

• nodejs['install_method'] = source or package (only used on Linux)
• nodejs['version'] - release version of node to install
• nodejs['src_url'] - download location for node source tarball
• nodejs['dir'] - location where node will be installed, default /usr/local
• nodejs['npm'] - version of npm to install
• nodejs['npm_src_url'] - download location for npm source tarball

Include the nodejs recipe to install node on your system based on the default installation method:
