Salt masterless starter kit for Vagrant

Install

1. Install VirtualBox
2. Install Vagrant, either by package or gem install vagrant
3. Write some states!
4. vagrant up

Development

• Define states as shown in the Salt Masterless Quickstart.
• Pillars can be used by states as shown in Pillar Walkthrough. This project expects pillar files at states/pillar which should be managed by another repo.
• Formulas can be used by states as shown in Salt Formulas. GitFS does not work with masterless salt yet saltstack/salt#6660, so install them to states/formulas using Adding a Formula directory manually.

Notes

• Vagrant's salt provisioner has some logging issues. Set salt.verbose = true to get output from salt.highstate and salt.log_level = "info" to limit that output.
• All files in states are copied to /srv on your VM, the default salt states location.
