Overview

Install vagrant and, optionally, boxes and plugins.

Module Description

Vagrant is a tool for building and distributing development environments.

Setup

What vagrant affects

• vagrant package
• vagrant boxes
• vagrant plugins

Setup requirements

Since the module relies on some custom facts, you will need to setup pluginsync = true on both the master and client node's /etc/puppet/puppet.conf.

Beginning with vagrant

To begin using the vagrant module with default parameters:

include vagrant

Usage

Using the vagrant module consists predominantly in declaring classes that provide desired functionality and features.

vagrant

Install the vagrant package. If the version parameter is not specified, the latest version will be installed.

class { 'vagrant':
  version => '1.5.4'
}

vagrant::box

Add a vagrant box under the home directory of the specified user.

vagrant::box { 'hashicorp/precise64':
  box_provider => 'virtualbox',
  box_url      => undef,
  user         => 'vagrant'
}

vagrant::plugin

Add a vagrant plugin under the home directory of the specified user.

vagrant::plugin { 'vagrant-lxc': user => 'vagrant' }

Limitations

The user parameter of vagrant::box and vagrant::plugin is currently ignored on Windows systems (current user is assumed).
