Local development with Vagrant
- [install virtual box] (https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads)
- [install vagrant] (http://downloads.vagrantup.com/)
- setup a base box
Drop to the command line in the vagrant/package_creation folder and run
vagrant up
del package.box
If package.box exists
vagrant package
copy package.box ..\boxes\ubuntu_dev.box /y
vagrant destroy -f
This will setup a base box that is similar to our Rightscale ubuntu image named ubuntu_dev.
To start an operations vm, drop to the command in the vagrant/operations folder and run
vagrant box remove ubuntu_dev
If an ubuntu_dev box already exists from a previous package
vagrant up
To ssh in (from windows) use putty and connect to port 2222 against ip 127.0.0.1. Use the ppk file that is in the boxes folder.
