Vagrant Experiment
==================
This projects aim is to get familiar with
[Vagrant](http://vagrantup.com/ "Homepage for Vagrant").
Vagrant is described on its website as:
*Vagrant is a tool for building and distributing virtualized development environments.*
Environment
-----------
The prerequisites for this project are listed below. The are the same as per the
[walkthrough](http://vagrantup.com/docs/getting-started/index.html "Walkthrough on vagrant homepage").
* [VirtualBox](https://www.virtualbox.org/ "Homepage of VirtualBox") installed.
* [Ruby](http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/ "Homepage of Ruby") and [Rubygems](http://rubygems.org/ "Homepage for RubyGems.") installed.
* Vagrant installed
In addition to this is is advisable to use Ruby Version Manager
([rvm](http://beginrescueend.com/ "Homepage for Ruby Version Manager")). rvm allows you to transparantly
change ruby versions and gems between projects.
I personally set my environment up in the following manner.
> rvm install 1.9.2
> rvm use 1.9.2
> rvm gemset create vagrant
Everytime I work on this project I execute the command below.
> rvm use 1.9.2@vagrant
Setup
-----
To use this virtual box issue the following commands.
> vagrant box add lucid32 http://files.vagrantup.com/lucid32.box
This will download a *base image* as described in the
[walkthrough](http://vagrantup.com/docs/getting-started/boxes.html "Vagrant Walkthrough at Boxes").
> vagrant up
This should provision a working virtual machine as specified in the Vagrantfile.
