Vagrant Development Server

This server is used at Van Egmond Groep to develop our applications. It's basically a virtual Ubuntu 18.04 server with Docker, Docker Compose and Samba pre-installed.

Requirements

• Vagrant
• VirtualBox

Usage

1. Clone this repository to your computer.
2. Navigate to the folder in your terminal or command prompt.
3. Run vagrant up to start the server.
4. Run vagrant ssh to login to the server.
5. Run vagrant halt to stop the server.
6. Run vagrant up --provision to reprovision the server.
7. Run vagrant ssh -c "backup" to backup your application files to your host computer.

Accessing shared files

Your application files should live in the /srv folder which is shared by Samba to your host machine. To access the shared files navigate to:

• Windows: \\192.168.25.100\srv in File Explorer.
• MacOS / Linux: smb://192.168.25.100/srv in Finder / File Manager.

Login with:

User: vanegmond
Password: secret

Tip: you can clone any repository to the shared srv folder.

Tip: run sudo smbpasswd -a vanegmond to change the share password.

Hosts updater

Install the vagrant hosts updater plugin to update your hosts file while starting the development server. The server is then available via app.local in your browser. You can install this plugin using the command below (on your host machine):

vagrant plugin install vagrant-hostsupdater
