Extending Vagrant

Vagrant & /etc/hosts

Vagrant-Hostmaster plugin: https://github.com/mosaicxm/vagrant-hostmaster :: mosaicxm/vagrant-hostmaster · GitHub

Install into vagrant’s isolated RubyGems instance with: vagrant gem install vagrant-hostmaster but for me, it worked: gem install vagrant-hostmaster

Not working: E: grep: /etc/hosts: No such file or directory

Notes on installing plugins

Note if you use the gem packaging, the plugin will have to be installed with Vagrant using the “vagrant gem” command. This is because Vagrant packages and installers ship with a completely isolated RubyGems installation and never actually references your global RubyGems installation you may have.

So, use “vagrant gem install vagrant-plugin” if you have a packaged installation of Vagrant. Use “gem install vagrant-plugin” if you have Vagrant installed directly as a gem.

If there is a file named vagrant_init.rb somewhere in your gem’s load path, then Vagrant automatically loads it - and plugin is packaged as a RubyGem.

Create Project - Vagrant up In prepared project directory, run following command: $ vagrant up –provider=libvirt Vagrant needs to know that we want to use Libvirt and not default VirtualBox. That’s why there is –provider=libvirt option specified. Other way to tell Vagrant to use Libvirt provider is to setup environment variable export VAGRANT_DEFAULT_PROVIDER=libvirt.
