General

This is a boilerplate structure to setup vagrant on windows to allow using docker projects. We're going to set up vagrant with virtualbox, and install docker inside it.

Requirements

• Virtualbox: https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads
• Tip: make sure to configure the vagrant box to have plenty of RAM and CPU allocated, default is 1Gb which is not enough. To do so, after building the box, vagrant halt and open the VirtualBox GUI and click the settings icon for that virtual machine and navigate to System->Motherboard

Intructions

1. Install Vagrant https://www.vagrantup.com/downloads.html

2. Clone this repository to a location in your windows computer (it will house all your docker-compose projects as well)

3. From the root directory (where Vagrantfile is located) run vagrant up. This will download the Ubuntu 18.04 base image.

Note: if you run into this error you need to turn Hyper-V off as described here:

There was an error while executing `VBoxManage`, a CLI used by Vagrant
for controlling VirtualBox. The command and stderr is shown below.
Command: ["startvm", "8bed9841-0662-4338-8d1d-aac58a33d13b", "--type", "headless"]
Stderr: VBoxManage.exe: error: Call to WHvSetupPartition failed: ERROR_SUCCESS (Last=0xc000000d/87) (VERR_NEM_VM_CREATE_FAILED)
VBoxManage.exe: error: Details: code E_FAIL (0x80004005), component ConsoleWrap, interface IConsole

run bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off and restart your windows machine for it to take effect, run vagrant up and it should work.

4. When it's done run vagrant ssh to ssh into the virtual machine (password is vagrant)
5. Once inside, run this init script to install docker, ruby, pygmy, docker-compose: ./sites/init.sh
