Use vagrant on Windows to build Laravel homestead for a collaborative cross-platform development environment

Objective

Everyone is VMware VirtualBox not unfamiliar with, and the benefits of virtualization are naturally rooted, and now we can Vagrant build a similar Laravel Homestead complete development environment, which greatly reduces the time to set up the development environment, while also supporting the Windows/Mac/Linux sharing of custom packages on different platforms, The development environment between the Unified team improves productivity, and Docker the emergence of the future is more worthy of expectation.

Create a fantastic cross-platform development environment for yourself with vagrant

Install Git

1. Download GitHub for Windows

https://windows.github.com/

Install PHP

We recommend that you try to install the latest version of PHP

1. Download PHP

http://windows.php.net/download/

2. Unzip the Directory

My pathD:\php

3. Add Environment variables

System variables--environment variables---Advanced system settings, right-click Computer-->path

C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\nodejs\;D:\php;C:\ProgramData\ComposerSetup\bin

4. Set PHP.ini

Enter the PHP installation directory (for example D:\php ). Locate the php.ini-development file and copy it to the current directory, rename it to php.ini , modify the following configuration
Remove extension=php_mbstring.dll The preceding semicolon (888 rows or so)
Remove extension=php_openssl.dll the preceding semicolon (893 rows or so)
Remove extension_dir = "ext" the preceding semicolon (736 rows or so)

5. Make Environment variables effective

Restartexplorer.exe

Installing Laravel

1. Download Laravel

http://www.golaravel.com/download/

2. Unzip the Directory

My pathD:\laravel-v5.1.4

3. Start Laravel

d:cd laravel-v5.1.4D:\laravel-v5.1.4>on http://localhost:8000/

Accessing Http://localhost:8000/in the browser

artisanThe serve command also supports two parameters:

hostSet the host address
portSet the port number that Web server listens on

Loading composer repositories with package informationInstalling dependencies (including require-dev)SSL certificate problem, verify that the CA cert is OK. Details: error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed”

Download cacert.pem to a custom path if the installation process prompts an error as missing CA certificate
Http://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html

Then modify the php.ini file (1983 rows or so)

openssl.cafile=D:\php\verify\cacert.pem

3. Test composer

Installing vagrant

1. Download vagrant

Https://www.vagrantup.com/downloads.html

2. Download virtual images offline

Https://github.com/tommy-muehle/puppet-vagrant-boxes/releases/download/1.0.0/centos-6.6-x86_64.box

The above gives the centos-6.6 image download link, to download other images please visit the official website
http://www.vagrantbox.es/

Installing VirtualBox

BIOS Open CPU Hardware virtualization support VT (Virtualization Technology)

1. Download VirtualBox

Https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads

2. Import the image

Set the VirtualBox directory and copy the image centos-6.6-x86_64.box
E:\VirtualBox\centos-6.6-x86_64.box

3. Command initialization vagrant

Vagrant Configuration

Detailed configuration documentation can be found in the official manual-https://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/

Start vagrant

Execute command after entering directory through Shell E:\VirtualBox

 vagrant up

The complete process for a smooth start is shown below

Export box

Execute command after entering directory through Shell E:\VirtualBox

vagrant packagevagrant package --output NAME --vagrantfile FILE#可选参数：--output NAME ： （可选）设置通过NAME来指定输出的文件名--vagrantfile FILE：（可选）可以将Vagrantfile直接封进box中

Package.box will be generated in the current directory when it is complete, and can be shared at home or team members for consistent development environments

Other commands

Vagrant Up (Start virtual machine)
Vagrant Halt (Turn off the virtual machine-the corresponding is the shutdown)
Vagrant Suspend (Pause virtual machine-just pause, virtual machine memory and other information will be saved locally as a state file and can continue to be used after a recovery operation)
Vagrant Resume (restores the virtual machine-corresponds to the previous pause)
Vagrant Box Remove centos6.6 (remove box, where centos6.6 is the box name)
vagrant destroy (Deleting a virtual machine, deleting the configuration in the current virtual machine that is done except for Vagrantfile is not retained)
