Set up the environment

  1. Install VirtualBox
  2. Install Ansible
  3. Clone this repository
  4. You must set your workspace directory in Vagrantfile. Change the "." in the following line, to the directory where your source code is:

Change:

config.vm.synced_folder ".", "/vagrant", nfs: true

to something like:

config.vm.synced_folder "/home/my-user/workspace/my-project-src", "/Workspace", nfs: true
  1. This playbook already creates a database user for us, check the username and password here. Feel free to change if needed.
  2. Then run vagrant up

FAQ

  1. Question: What if my machine does not have enough RAM (4GB or less)?

    Answer: You can customize the amount of memory in the Vagrant file under the vm.provider block:

    config.vm.provider "virtualbox" do |vb|
  vb.memory = 1024
  # ... other configs
end

  2. Question: Vagrant is failing with the message "Failed to mount folders in Linux guest."?

    Answer: Run vagrant plugin install vagrant-vbguest. Then run vagrant reload --provisioning for resuming the provisioning process.

  3. Question: You are facing problems with permissions to mount your local filesystem on the VM environment, something like:

    mount -o 'vers=3,udp' 10.0.0.1:'/home/myuser/mysrc' /Workspace
...
Stderr from the command:

stdin: is not a tty
mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting 10.0.0.1:'/home/myuser/mysrc'

    or:

    exportfs: {folder} does not support NFS export

    Answer: Check if you are trying to mount a directory in an encrypted partition or folder. NFS can't mount this kind of directory. In this case, find a folder (maybe in another partition), give your user proper permissions and move your refer source code there.

    Then you change your Vagrantfile line:

     config.vm.synced_folder "/home/workspace/my-codes/my-project-src", "/Workspace", nfs: true

    To:

    config.vm.synced_folder "/home/another-dir-i-can-access/my-codes/my-project-src", "/Workspace", nfs: true
