This is a Vagrant 1.2+ plugin that adds a shell provider to Vagrant, allowing Vagrant to control and provision machines using shell scripts. It's meant to be customized with scripts for Xen, Docker, etc.
vagrant-shell is forked from vagrant-aws with the fog/aws parts replaced with a shell script that takes four sub-commands: run-instance, terminate-instance, ssh-info, and read-state.
See libexec/shell-docker for an example.
NOTE: This plugin requires ruby 1.9 and bundler
I don't know how to install vagrant-shell as a plugin, so this repo uses bundler and cached gems.
Go to the demo directory:
cd demo/docker
Download the ubuntu docker image:
docker pull ubuntu
Run make to bundle gems, install the demo vagrant box:
make
Bring up the docker containers:
bundle exec vagrant up
bundle exec vagrant status
The commands passed to the container are sourced from libexec/init-docker.
It sets up the root user with an ssh key suitable for vagrant.
SSH into one of the the containers:
bundle exec vagrant ssh ubuntu:precise
