Vagrant Puppet Install

Requirements

This repository has a Vagrant VM configuration baked in.

You'll to install:

• Vagrant
• Virtualbox

Then, put this repo somewhere appropriate, perhaps in a vagrantvms directory on your computer.

Configuration

You may customise the server for your application using the clearly marked "configurable properties" in the following files:

• /Vagrantfile - IPs and settings
• /manifests/default.pp - site URLs for vhosts

What it does

Creates a virtual machine running a basic LAMP stack. In addition to the standard LAMP installation, we:

• Create a database and user, as per the settings in /manifests/default.pp
• Install Composer globally;
• Set the correct ownership for the whole dir

What it doesn't do

Modify your /etc/hosts file. You'll need to add your chosen development domain, as follows:

# /etc/hosts
192.168.56.107	krys.dev

This is the URL you set in /manifests/default.pp

Accessing the site via a browser

Assuming you've added the appropriate entry to your /etc/hosts file, you can access your site at http://krys.dev.

Accessing the database

Via phpMyAdmin in the browser

To install, you'll need to run a quick shell command to get phpMyAdmin accessible in your browser:

vagrant ssh
echo 'Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf' | sudo tee -a /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
exit
vagrant reload

Then, visit http://krys.dev/phpmyadmin, to access it.

Using Sequel Pro

• Connection Type: SSH
• MySQL Host: 127.0.0.1
• Username: root
