Introduction

the vagrant box is empty by default and must be configured with puppet manifest. GenericVm Provide the "eco-system" and is very flexible. All your project source file (php, javascript, html) are stored on the host(the computer you are using now) and shared with the virtual environment (the guest).

In fact, you can destroy VM without lost your code( except for db data ) ;

1. Prepare GenericVm 1.1 git clone git@github.com:gpkfr/GenericVM.git GVM && cd GVM 1.2 **git submodule init && git submodule update

2. Edit file config.yaml 2.1 cp config.yaml.sample config.yaml 2.2 the file is self documented and in (yaml)[http://symfony.com/legacy/doc/reference/1_4/fr/02-YAML] format

3. Create or edit a (puppet)[https://docs.puppetlabs.com] manifest 3.1 GenericVM provide some manifest as Poc. ./manifests/Laravel.pp is a good starting point and very easy to configure and self documented. don't be afraid ;)

4. Start VM 4.1 vagrant up 4.2 connect to your site ; Ex : (localsite)[http://127.0.0.1:8080]

some Vagrant Command

1. Start VM -> vagrant up
2. Stop VM -> vagrant halt
3. Delete VM -> vagrant destroy
4. connect to vm -> vagrant ssh
5. get ssh config -> vagrant ssh-config
6. get help ;) -> vagrant help
