Vagrant with Ansible Provisioner on Windows

Vagrant with Ansible Provisioner on Windows

Long story short, ansible does not work on a Windows control machine, so you basically have to:

  • either run ansible --connection=local ... in the target vm
  • set up a separate control vm where ansible is installed via shell provisioner

Below are Vagrantfile examples for both approaches

Within the Target VM

Producing printable QR codes for persistent storage of GPG private keys
# Heavily depends on:
# libqrencode (fukuchi.org/works/qrencode/)
# paperkey (jabberwocky.com/software/paperkey/)
# zbar (zbar.sourceforge.net)
# Producing the QR codes:
# Split over 4 codes to ensure the data per image is not too large.

Scaladoc tutorial for docs.scala-lang.org, in a pitiful state
# Scaladoc Developer Guide
## Introduction
Scaladoc is the tool that enables developers to automatically generate documentation for their Scala (and Java) projects. It is Scala's equivalent of the widely-used Javadoc tool. This means that Javadoc (and even doxygen) users will be familiar with Scaladoc from day 1: for them, it is most beneficial to check out the Scaladoc/Javadoc comparison tables and if necessary, skim through this document to understand specific features.
The rest of this tutorial is aimed at developers new to Scaladoc and other similar tools. It assumes a basic understanding of the Scala language, which is necessary to follow the examples given throughout the tutorial. For the user perspective on the Scaladoc-generated documentation, such as finding a class, understanding the page layout, navigating through diagrams, please refer to the Scaladoc User Guide.
The tutorial will start by a short motivation and then will explain the main concept in Scaladoc: the doc comment.
