This manual provides comprehensive information for the Vagrant software, developed by Mitchell Hashimoto and published by O'Reilly Media. Designed for developers and operations engineers, Vagrant is an open-source tool for building and managing virtual machine environments. It offers a streamlined approach to creating reproducible development setups that closely mirror production environments, facilitating efficient collaboration and deployment. The guide covers the V1 configuration syntax on a V2 core, ensuring compatibility with the latest stable versions of the software.
The scope of this manual encompasses detailed instructions on leveraging Vagrant's capabilities, from initial setup with minimal configuration to advanced techniques. It guides users through automating software installation and management using tools like shell scripts, Chef, or Puppet, and configuring network interfaces for accessibility. Furthermore, the manual explores creating multi-machine clusters, customizing operating systems, and extending functionality through plugins. This resource is intended to empower users to effectively utilize Vagrant for their development and system administration needs.
Discover why Vagrant is a must-have tool for thousands of developers and ops engineers. This hands-on guide shows you how to use this open source software to build a virtual machine for any purpose—including a completely sandboxed, fully provisioned development environment right on your desktop.
Vagrant creator Mitchell Hashimoto shows you how to share a virtual machine image with members of your team, set up a separate virtualization for each project, and package virtual machines for use by others. This book covers the V1 (1.0.x) configuration syntax running on top of a V2 (1.1+) core, the most stable configuration format running on the latest core.
