Auto-starting VirtualBox VMs on OS X

Auto-starting VirtualBox VMs on OS X

After finding a lot of other posts on the topic that didn't work out for me this one did the trick so I'm reposting for my own sense of self preservation.

Link to original article.

Copy the Virtualbox autostart plist template file to your system's LaunchDaemons folder.

sudo cp \

/Applications/VirtualBox.app/Contents/MacOS/org.virtualbox.vboxautostart.plist \

Find the elements that are causing a horizontal scroll. Based on http://css-tricks.com/findingfixing-unintended-body-overflow/

Debug Horizontal Scroll

(function (d) {
    var w = d.documentElement.offsetWidth,
        t = d.createTreeWalker(d.body, NodeFilter.SHOW_ELEMENT),
        b;
    while (t.nextNode()) {
        b = t.currentNode.getBoundingClientRect();

Drupal 8 Entity API cheat sheet

The examples here contain some hard-coded IDs. These are all examples. In your real code, you should already have the node IDs, file IDs, etc. in a variable.

Working with nodes

Load a node by NID:

$nid = 123;     // example value
$node_storage = \Drupal::entityTypeManager()->getStorage('node');
$node = $node_storage->load($nid);
