My Vagrant/Puppet Default Setup

Setup

• Install vagrant on your system see vagrantup.com

• Install vagrant-hostmaster on your system see mosaicxm/vagrant-hostmaster

• Get a base box with puppet support see vagrantup.com docs

• Get a copy of this repository. You can do this either by integrating it as a git submodule or by just checking it out and copying the files. Prefarably, the contents of this repository should be placed in a directory vagrant inside your project's root dir.

• Copy vagrant/Personalization.dist to vagrant/Personalization and modify vagrant/Personalization according to your needs.

  Example:

  $vhost = "test"
  $ip = "192.168.10.42"
  
  $use_nfs = true
  
  $base_box = "ubuntu-server-i386"
  
  $webserver = "nginx"

  • Execute "vagrant up" in the directory vagrant.

Infrastructure

After performing the steps listed above, you will have the following environment set up:

• A running virtual machine with your project on it
• Your project directory will be mounted as a shared folder in this virtual machine
• Your project will be accessible via a browser (go to http://{$vhost}.dev/[app_dev.php])
• You can now start customizing the new virtual machine. In most cases, the machine should correspond to the infrastructure your production server(s) provide.
