Vagrant Plugins

Vagrant now gives users the ability to define project specific plugins, that is required for a vagrantfile. Vagrant would require these plugins be installed and available for the project. If The plugins is not available, it'll attempt to automatically install them into the local project. When requiring a single plugin, a string can be provided:

config.vagrant.plugins = "vagrant-plugin"

If multiple plugins is required, they can be provided as an array:

config.vagrant.plugins = ["vagrant-plugin", "vagrant-other-plugin"]

Plugins can also is defined as a Hash, which supports setting extra options for the Plugins. When a Hash was used, the key is the name of the plugin, and the value is an options Hash for the plugin. For example, to set an explicit version of a plugin to install:

config.vagrant.plugins = {"vagrant-scp" => {"version" => "1.0.0"}}

More information about configuring your vagrantfile to install local plugins can is found on the?documentation?for Vagrant files!

Vagrant Upload

Vagrant now includes a new? upload ? Command. This command allows in the uploading of one-off files or directories from the host to a running guest. The upload command utilizes the underlying communicator configured for the target guest to provide support for uploading F Iles and directories.

vagrant upload test.rbUploading test.rb to test.rbUpload has completed successfully!  Source: test.rb  Destination: test.rb

The upload command also includes support for performing compression on the host prior to upload and automatic Decompressio N on the guest. This can is very useful when uploading large directories as it isn't only compresses the content to being uploaded but also red UCEs the number of uploaded items to one. For more information on the new Upload command, please refer to the?documentation.
