Introduction

This Vagrantfile and related scripts are used to deploy an Arch Linux based web development environment.

Quick start

• To start your development environment, please follow these commands:

$ git clone git@github.com:xinsnake/vagrant-webdev.git
$ cd vagrant-webdev
$ vagrant up

• After that please add the following lines to your "hosts" file:

192.168.155.10      localhost.dev
192.168.155.10      pm.localhost.dev

• Default VirtualHost

  • localhost.dev (mapped to /vagrant/wwwroot)
  • pm.localhost.dev (mapped to /usr/share/webapps/phpMyAdmin) default root password: password

• Please note:

  • Keep your internet conection on and if you have a data limit please watch out. The base box will need around 400MB data and the provisoning process will need around 100MB.
  • The total deploy time with 1MB/s internet connection is 15~20 minutes, assuming you have reasonable hardware configuration.

VirtualBox and NFS file sharing

You may notice the performance issue using VirtualBox and native file sharing, uncomment the config.vm.synced_folder after the first "vagrant up". If you do it on the first "vagrant up", you will receive an error.
