This README file is inside a folder that contains a Vagrantfile
(hereafter this folder shall be called the [vagrant_root]), which tells Vagrant how to set up your virtual machine in VirtualBox.
To use the vagrant file, you will need to have done the following:
- Download and Install VirtualBox
- Download and Install Vagrant
- Install Ansible
- Open a shell prompt (Terminal app on a Mac) and cd into the folder containing the
Vagrantfile
- Run the following command to install the necessary Ansible roles for this profile:
$ ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml
Once all of that is done, you can simply type in vagrant up
, and Vagrant will create a new VM, install the base box, and configure it.
Once the new VM is up and running (after vagrant up
is complete and you're back at the command prompt), you can log into it via SSH if you'd like by typing in vagrant ssh
. Otherwise, the next steps are below.
$ ansible-playbook -i .vagrant/provisioners/ansible/inventory/vagrant_ansible_inventory vbox_addtions.yml -vvv
