Vagrant Quick Start

Vagrant Quick Start
1. Vagrant function: Vagrant usesOracle's VirtualBox to build retriable, lightweight, and portable virtual machines dynamically ..

[Vagrant uses the Oracle VM VirtualBox to dynamically create and configure lightweight, reproducible, and portable Virtual Machine environments .]

2. Download Vagrant:

Http://downloads.vagrantup.com/tags/v1.0.5

3. Install Vagrant:

3.1. download and install the Oracle VM VirtualBox. For example, in windows, the virtualbox-4.2.0-80737-win.exe is installed.

3.2. download and install the latest Vagrant version:

[Note] in Windows and Mac OS X,vagrantThe command should be automatically added to the Environment VariablePATHBut in other operating systems, you must manually add/opt/vagrant/binTo Environment VariablesPATH。

4. Vagrant command

After Vagrant is installed, we can use the vagrant command from the command line to perform operations. Common vagrant commands are as follows:

Vagrant box add <name> <url>
Vagrant box list
Vagrant box remove <name>
Vagrant box repackage <name>
Vagrant init [box-name] [box-url]
Vagrant up [vm-name] [-- [no-] provision] [-h]
Vagrant destroy [vm-name]
Vagrant suspend [vm-name]
Vagrant reload [vm-name]
Vagrant resume [vm-name]
Vagrant halt [vm-name]
Vagrant status [vm-name]
Vagrant package [vm-name] [-- base name] [-- output name. box] [-- include one, two, three] [-- vagrantfile file]
Vagrant provision [vm-name]
Vagrant ssh [vm-name] [-c command] [-- extra ssh args]
Vagrant ssh-config [vm-name] [-- host name]

5. Vagrantfile

In any Vagrant project, there is a Vagrantfile. Just like makefile, Vagrantfile is used to configure the information of the virtual machine created by vagrant. Below is a basic Vagrantfile:

       Vagrant::Config.run do |config|           # Setup the box           config.vm.box = "my_box"       end

6. Create the first Vagrant virtual environment and project:

(1) create a project directory and run the vagrant init command. This command will generate the initial Vagrantfile

$ mkdir vagrant_guide$ cd vagrant_guide$ vagrant init

(2) Add a Base Box:

Instead of creating a virtual machine from scratch, Vagrant imports the base image of a virtual machine and builds it on this basis. These images are called Box.

Vagrant supports adding boxes from a local file system or HTTP URL

$ Vagrant box add basehttp: // files.vagrantup.com/lucid32.box

$ Vagrant box add base D: \ lucid32.box

(3) configure the Project to use this Box: Modify Vagrantfile to the following content:

Vagrant: Config. run do | config |
Config. vm. box = "base"
End

(4) Start A Virtual Machine

$ Vagrant up

(5) Stop the VM

$ Vagrant destroy

(6) SSH Configuration

Vagrant provides an SSH connection to a virtual machine. You only need to execute the following command:

$ Vagrant ssh

In Windows, you can use PUTTY to configure the following information to connect to the virtual machine:

Hostname: localhost

Port: 2222

Connection Type: SSH

User Name: vagrant

Password: vagrant

(7) access the Project just created.

Vagrant connects your application to the virtual machine through the shared folder of VirtualBox. The default shared folder guard is/vagrant. To view the created Project, you only need to execute:

Vagrant @ lucid32 :~ $ Ls/vagrant
Index.html Vagrantfile

(8) Provisioning:

Usually, the Box only performs the most basic settings, instead of setting all the environments in place at a time. Vagrant usually uses chef or Puppet for further environment setup.
