vagrant Cookbook
Installs Vagrant 1.6+ and manages vagrant plugins w/ a custom resource. If you are not familiar with Vagrant, read about it here:
- Vagrant: http://www.vagrantup.com/
This cookbook is not intended to be used for vagrant "1.0" (gem install) versions. A recipe is provided for removing the gem, see Recipes.
This cookbook is not supported for installing versions of Vagrant older than 1.6.
Requirements
This cookbook should not be used on platforms that Vagrant itself does not support.
Vagrant Supported Platforms
Vagrant does not specifically list supported platforms on the project web site. However, the only platforms with packages provided are:
- Mac OS X
- Windows
- Linux (deb-package based platforms, e.g., Debian and Ubuntu)
- Linux (rpm-packaged based platforms, e.g., RHEL and CentOS)
Other platforms are not supported. This cookbook attempts to exit gracefully in places where unsupported platforms may cause an issue, but it is strongly recommended that this cookbook not be on an unsupported platform's node run list or used as a dependency for cookbooks used on unsupported platforms.
Tested with Test Kitchen
- Debian 7.6
- Ubuntu 14.04
- CentOS 6.5
- OS X 10.9
May work on other Debian/RHEL family distributions with or without modification.
Support exists for Windows but this has not yet been added to test-kitchen. OS X support is in test-kitchen, but requires a custom box be created.
The URL and Checksum attributes must be set, see Attributes
Because Vagrant is installed as a native system package, Chef must run as a privileged user (e.g., root).
Attributes
The following attributes must be set. The cookbook has helper methods in libraries
that attempt to automatically discover these values.
-
node['vagrant']['version']
- Version of Vagrant to use, default is 1.6.5, which was current at the time of writing. -
node['vagrant']['url']
- URL to the Vagrant installation package. -
node['vagrant']['checksum']
- SHA256 checksum of the Vagrant installation package.
Note: I'm not taking pull requests to merely update the version. Change it in your local setup via role, environment, wrapper cookbook, etc. The helpers should take care of the rest. If a new version of vagrant requires other changes, then open an issue.
If the node is Windows, the MSI version must be set. This is used by
the windows_package
resource to determine if the package is
installed.
-
node['vagrant']['msi_version']
- Version string of the installed MSI "package" on Windows.
The following attributes are optional.
-
node['vagrant']['plugins']
- A array of plugins. The elements in the array can be a string or a hash. String elements should be the names of plugins to install. Hash elements should have two keys, "name" and "version", for the plugin name and its version to install. This is used by thevagrant_plugin
resource in theinstall_plugins
recipe. -
node['vagrant']['user']
- A user that is used to automatically install plugins as for thenode['vagrant']['plugins']
attribute.
Resources
This cookbook includes the vagrant_plugin
resource, for managing
vagrant plugins.
vagrant_plugin
Actions
-
:install
: installs the specified plugin. Default. -
:uninstall
: uninstalls the specified plugin -
:remove
: uninstalls the specified plugin
Attribute Parameters
-
:plugin_name
: name attribute, the name of the plugin, e.g. "vagrant-omnibus". -
:version
: version of the plugin to installed, must be specified as a string, e.g., "1.0.2" -
:user
: a user to run plugin installation as. Usually this is for single user systems (like workstations). -
:sources
: alternate locations to search for plugins. This would commonly be used if you are hosting your vagrant plugins in a custom gem repo
Examples
vagrant_plugin "vagrant-omnibus"
vagrant_plugin "vagrant-berkshelf"
version "1.2.0"
sources ["http://src1.example.com", "http://src2.example.com"]
end
# Install the plugins as the `donuts` user, into ~donuts/.vagrant.d
vagrant_plugin "vagrant-aws"
user "donuts"
end
Recipes
default
The default recipe includes the platform-family specific recipe to
install Vagrant. If the node['vagrant']['plugins']
attribute is not empty, it includes the install_plugins recipe to install any required vagrant plugins.
install_plugins
Iterates over the node['vagrant']['plugins']
attribute and installs the listed plugins. If that attribute is a hash, it uses the version. If the node['vagrant']['user']
attribute is set, the plugins are installed for only that user.
debian, fedora, mac_os_x, rhel, windows
These are the platform family recipes included by the default recipe.
The fedora
recipe will include rhel
.
uninstall_gem
This recipe will attempt to uninstall the vagrant
gem with the
gem_package
and chef_gem
resources. Meaning, it will use the gem
binary in the PATH
of the shell executing Chef to uninstall, and
then use Chef's built-in RubyGems to uninstall. If you have a
customized Ruby environment, such as with rbenv or rvm (or other), you
may need to manually remove and clean up anything leftover, such as
running rbenv rehash
. Likewise, if you have multiple copies of the
vagrant gem installed, you'll need to clean up all versions. This
recipe won't support such craziness :-).
Usage
Set the url and checksum attributes on the node. Do this in a role, or
a "wrapper" cookbook. Or, just set the version and let the magic happen.
Then include the default recipe on the node's run list.
To specify plugins for installation in the default recipe, specify an
array for the node['vagrant']['plugins']
attribute. For example, to
install the vagrant-omnibus
plugin (any version) and version "1.2.0"
of the vagrant-berkshelf
plugin:
node.set['vagrant']['plugins'] = [
"vagrant-omnibus",
{"name" => "vagrant-berkshelf", "version" => "1.2.0"}
]
