Vagrant Ubuntu Development Environment

Getting started

Vagrant

1. Install VirtualBox and Vagrant

   brew install virtualbox vagrant

2. Clone this repo into a folder
3. Start up the server with Vagrant and ssh into it:

   vagrant up

Ansible

Ansible is used to provision your Ubuntu box, so please ensure that Ansible is installed on your host machine.

Python

I would recommend installing Python3 via brew, so that you are not using macOS's built-in version.

brew install python  # python3 seems to have been rename to python in brew now 

Install Ansible

sudo pip3 install ansible

# or to update ansible
sudo pip3 install ansible --upgrade

Ansible dependencies

Ansible uses WinRM to communicate with the Ubuntu Box, so you will need to install the Python WinRM library

pip3 install pywinrm
