# vagrant-global-status

A proof of concept [Vagrant](http://www.vagrantup.com/) plugin that keeps
track of vagrant machines and provides a command for listing the status of all
known machines.

**NOTICE: This plugin is no longer being maintained as its functionality [has been implemented on Vagrant core](https://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant/pull/3225) and will be available with Vagrant 1.6+.**

## Installation

Make sure you have Vagrant 1.1+ and run:

```
vagrant plugin install vagrant-global-status
```

## Usage

```
vagrant global-status [--all]

-a, --all Displays information about all machines (instead of just the active ones)
-h, --help Print this help
```

## How does it work?

Whenever you `vagrant up` a VM, the plugin will register the machine name and
path to its `Vagrantfile` on a global state file under `~/.vagrant.d`. That
is enough information for the `global-status` command to do its job and parse
machine's statuses.

After a `vagrant destroy`, the VM will get removed from the global state file
and will no longer show up by default on `vagrant global-status` unless you pass
in `-a` to it.

Besides that, the plugin is smart enough to detect [multiple combinations](lib/vagrant-global-status/global_environment.rb)
of Vagrant environments and is able to get the status for a machine that is
used for development of a Vagrant plugin using Bundler.

## Current limitations / ideas for contributions

* Keeps track of active vagrant-lxc and VirtualBox VMs only
* Detect orphaned machines
