Vagrant box, with Ansible provisioning to setup all that is required for Summercamp 2015.
You need to be using either OSX or linux as your OS.
If you are using Windows, let me know so I can take a look how to setup the ansible-pull (and if it is possible)
You need to have following installed:
If you are on linux machine, preferred method of Ansible installation is
pip install ansible
If you are on an OS X machine, you can install Ansible with brew or pip
pip install ansible
or
brew install ansible
You should not be cloning the Ansible repo and running it like that.
The recommended version of Ansible at the time of writing is 1.8.4.
The minimum recommended version of vagrant at the time of writng is 1.7.3
With these versions you can use Virtualbox 4.x or 5.x
The local development is meant to be used in a vagrant provisioned box.
The provisioner for the project is ansible.
Once you have the prerequisites setup, you can run the
vagrant up
from you terminal to start the process up.
If you do not see an error message, go get yourself a cup of coffee or your favorite beverage, you deserve it.
If you start seeing the connection timeout after adding of the private key
default: SSH username: vagrant
default: SSH auth method: private key
default: Warning: Connection timeout. Retrying...
default: Warning: Connection timeout. Retrying...
You should open up the Virtualbox, click the vm running (name should be along the lines of 4cinc-thinkfasttoys....) and reset it (on OSX it is cmd+t). This is due to some weird bug somewhere on intersection of vagrant, virtualbox and this ubuntu cloud image. After the initial virtual machine build, you will not need to use this.
IMPORTANT
If vagrant starts complaining about locale and crashes the provisioning, in ~/.bash_profile (or equivalent) add
export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
Shell script will run from within the vm to provision the setup
