Rails 6 + Webpack 4 + Vagrant + SB Admin 2 template

An empty Rails 6 project built with webpack 4 to manage JS and CSS, which includes the SB Admin 2 bootstrap template, using a Vagrant VM

Installation

With VirtualBox 6 and Vagrant 2 installed, just clone the repository and run vagrant up.

Usage

In the project folder (host OS), open a console and run the following commands. Under Windows the console must have ssh (e.g., Git bash) and execute with admin privileges in order to activate symlinks support (needed by yarn/npm).

# inside the project folder
vagrant up # Start the vm
vagrant ssh # connect to the provisioned vm

All the code / tools run inside the vm, e.g.:

cd /vagrant
rails s -b 0.0.0.0
WEBPACKER_DEV_SERVER_HOST=0.0.0.0 ./bin/webpack-dev-server # run this on a 2nd console

The project should be accessible under http://localhost:3000 with webpacker providing hot reload.

When finished just logout and halt the VM:

logout # or press Ctrl+D
vagrant halt
