Automatically start a single instance of ssh-agent for all terminal sessions to share (bash)

Installation

  1. mkdir -p ~/.config && touch ~/.config/ssh-agent.pid
  2. Paste the contents of ssh-agent-manage.sh into your .bashrc or .bash_profile or similar
  3. killall -9 ssh-agent
  4. Start a new terminal session (note: old sessions will not see ssh-agent, only new ones)

Details

This snippet, when included in .bashrc, will ensure that your session has a working ssh-agent with all your ssh keys loaded into it. It does this without creating separate ssh-agent processes by:

Mount apt cache of a Vagrant box in the host to spin up the packages installation

This is a little trick I use to spin up the packages instalation on Debian/Ubuntu boxes in Vagrant.

I add a simple function that checks if a directory named something similar to ~/.vagrant.d/cache/apt/opscode-ubuntu-12.04/partial (it may have another path in Windows or MacOS) and create the directory if it doesn't already exist.

def local_cache(box_name)
  cache_dir = File.join(File.expand_path(Vagrant::Environment::DEFAULT_HOME),
                        'cache',
                        'apt',
                        box_name)
