A Vagrant plugin for integration with chef-zero: https://github.com/jkeiser/chef-zero

Installation

Usage

Sample Vagrantfile:

  chef_zero_ip = '33.33.33.10'
  chef_zero_port = '8889'

  Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
    config.ssh.max_tries = 40
    config.ssh.timeout   = 120
    config.vm.box = 'precise64'
    config.vm.box_url = 'http://files.vagrantup.com/precise64.box'

    config.vm.define :chefzero do |chefzero|
      chefzero.vm.network :private_network, ip: chef_zero_ip

      chefzero.vm.provision :chefzero do |cz|
        cz.ip = chef_zero_ip
        cz.port = chef_zero_port
        cz.setup do |p|
          p.import_data_bag_item(:users, :global)
          p.import_berkshelf_cookbooks
        end
      end
    end

    config.vm.define :target do |target|
      target.vm.hostname = "stuff.dev.pages"
      target.vm.network :private_network, ip: "33.33.33.20"

      target.vm.provision :chef_client do |chef|
        chef.chef_server_url = "http://#{chef_zero_ip}:#{chef_zero_port}"
        chef.validation_key_path = "my-knife.pem"

        #The recipe we actually care about.
        chef.add_recipe "my-cookbook::server"
      end
    end
  end

When the provisioner runs, it will generate a Knife configuration file .vagrant-chef-zero/knife.rb appropriate for interacting with the chef-zero instance.
