vagrant-box - boxed Rails development

Introduction

Developing Rails applications is fun. Getting a Rails development environment up and running isn't.

vagrant-box automates the setup of a development environment for working on Ruby on Rails applications. This project is based on Rails-Take-Out with some tweaks to adjust to my personal setup preferences.

Requirements

• VirtualBox
• Vagrant

What's In The Box

• Git
• RVM
• Ruby 2.0.0 (binary RVM install)
• Bundler
• Postgres (username rails, password rails)
• System dependencies for nokogiri, sqlite3 and pg
• Default database users for Rails database configuration
• Node.js for the asset pipeline
• Memcached

Setup

local: git clone
local: cd flyscape
local: vagrant up
local: vagrant ssh
vagrant: cd /vagrant
vagrant: bundle install
vagrant: rake db:create
vagrant: rake db:migrate
vagrant: rake db:seed
vagrant: rails server

Now go to localhost:3000 on your local mashine and see the application working!
