vagrant-ansible-for-dev-envs

A collection of Vagrantfiles and Ansible playbooks to configure a portable development environment in a VM. Useful to setup quickly fresh environments ready to develop or test apps.

Requirements

• Virtualbox or VMWare
• Vagrant

Usage

Once installed Vagrant, choose an available environment (e.g. "Java"), go into that folder and run via terminal (Powershell for Windows, Shell for Unix):

vagrant up

To automatically download and set up a Virtual Machine with everything you have specified in Vagrantfile and playbook already setup.

To install only new provisioned tools, after starting the VM run:

vagrant provision

You can customize versions and tools just modifying the playbook.yml.

Available configs and what is included

• Java: JDK 1.8, Maven 3.8.4 Docker, Docker-compose (latest).

Possible improvements

• Avoid repeated provisioning from Ansible
• Use vars in playbook (not working for "roles")
