4. Vagrant
• A open source command line VM provision tool
• MIT licence
• Still virtualization,
but more easier, more flexible
• Support shell, puppet, chef on provisioning

8. How does it work?
• Via VBoxManage tool
• list running VM
– $ VBoxManage list runningvms
• pause VM
– $ VBoxManage controlvm <vmname> pause
• send poweroff single to VM
(tells VM OS to shutdown)
– $ VBoxManage controlvm <vmname> acpipowerbutton
• …

9. Why we need it
• Deploy a project on a machine for testing
– mess things up
– Fix it
– …loop…
• Environment specific
– I can run it well on MY machine
(cause I only test it on my machine)
• Can not automate
• I don‟t have machines…

10. Problem to solve
• Provisioning:
– automate trivial things
• install httpd, mysql, config, config, config…
• reuse:
– Package configured VM as a “box”
• testing:
– clean environment for testing
• Portable:
– one box file
– local machine

14. Networking
• default : eth0 for NAT
• Port forwarding
– config.vm.network :forwarded_port, host: 8070, guest: 8070
• Host-only
– config.vm.network :private_network, ip: "192.168.56.2“
• Bridge
– config.vm.network :public_network
– config.vm.network :public_network, :bridge => 'en0: Wi-Fi
(AirPort)„
• (Not always work)

– config.vm.provider :virtualbox do |vb|
–
vb.customize ["modifyvm", :id, "--memory", "1024"]
– end
• Hostname
– config.vm.hostname = “YOUR_HOSTNAME“
• Share folder

22. Get ssh command on windows
• ssh
– Install git (MINGW)
– Install Cygwin (too fat, I think)
• There‟re many ways you can do to achieve this goal,
My suggestion is to install git on your windows
– Download git
– 6 page quick tutorial
• Then use putty to ssh in.
