There is not support for that yet. I think there are two ways of adding this:

1. Adding an environment parameter to the ChefService.createBootstrapScriptForGroup method.
2. Adding an environment parameter to the ChefService.updateBootstrapConfigForGroup method.

The first approach means that every time someone generates the bootstrap script, the environment must be provided (otherwise "_default" will be used).

With the second approach, the environment could be included into the bootstrap databag. Currently the databag configuration stores the name of the group, and the runlist for the nodes in the group. It seems like a good place to store the environment where the nodes in the group should be created.

I think the second approach would be better, as the bootstrap databag is a natural place to store all bootstrap related information.

Sounds good?
