Simple Dev Box

Spins up a very simple VM and installs a few important things.

Usage

• Install VirtualBox
• Install Vagrant
• Download this gist and extract.
• Run vagrant up from the same directory as Vagrantfile and provision.sh whenever you want to rebuild the VM.
• Run vagrant (with no arguments) for a list of commands.
• Run vagrant ssh to open an SSH session with your newly-booted VM.

Useful Information

• The directory containing Vagrantfile is mounted as a shared directory inside the VM at /vagrant
• vagrant destroy tears it down.
• vagrant suspend and vagrant resume can be used instead of up and destroy.

provision.sh

# install stuff

sudo apt-get update && \
  sudo apt-get install -y build-essential git curl openjdk-7-jdk maven

# sbt 0.13.0
wget http://repo.scala-sbt.org/scalasbt/sbt-native-packages/org/scala-sbt/sbt/0.13.0/sbt.deb && sudo dpkg -i sbt.deb

Vagrantfile

Vagrant::Config.run do |config|

  config.vm.box = "precise32"
  config.vm.box_url = "http://files.vagrantup.com/precise32.box"
  config.vm.forward_port 4000, 4000
  config.vm.provision :shell, :path => 'provision.sh'

end
