npoggi/vagrant-docker repository overview

⁠vagrant-docker

Use docker instead of a VM (i.e., virtualbox) in Vagrant as a provider to save system resources (and be more fashionable!)

Use this sample code to build your own boxes.

Fork, and send your pull requests!

The image is currently based on Ubuntu:12.04 It features Puppet [Chef is optional] and a sample NginX web Server

###Simple usage: #####Builds your own docker image from the Dockerfile cd vagrant-docker

sudo vagrant up

###Test: Navigate to: http://localhost:8080/⁠

###Advanced usage: #####Select your image in a ENV var

#####For a vanilla image built using the same docker file:

DOCKER_IMAGE='npoggi/vagrant-docker' sudo vagrant up --provision

#####For a pre-provisioned image with the puppet config (saves time)

DOCKER_IMAGE='npoggi/vagrant-docker-provisioned' sudo vagrant up --provision

###Notes: In case you switch images do a vagrant provision (or vagrant up --provision) instead of just vagrant up. As docker by default stops services if not specified in the Dockerfile. Puppet as the provisioner with make sure they are UP!
