This is the way I actually work. My question is, how to do give those properties values on-the-fly, with no need no re-upload the whole box to vCloud Director. Ovftool is able to do that (i.e. ovftool --prop:currency="EUR - Euro".....). I wonder if this is possible using Vagrant too.
i saw some examples in the internet, adding some code to a configuration file: But its for virtualbox provider for already defined parameters ( natdnshostresolver1). config.vm.provider :virtualbox do |vb| vb.customize ["modifyvm", :id, "--natdnshostresolver1", "on"] end I wold like to see somethig lke config.vm.customize ["modifyvm", :id, "itfm_currency", "EUR - Euro"] On Monday, December 7, 2015 at 11:57:13 AM UTC+2, Alvaro Miranda Aguilera wrote: > > Hello gaston > > Think in that location as your base template. > > so if you want to update the source of the box, you can update that one. > > After that, you can run vagrant repackage to create a new box so you > can have one for each currency/settings. > > Alvaro. > > On Mon, Dec 7, 2015 at 8:53 PM, Gaston <[email protected] <javascript:>> > wrote: > > Hi Alvaro; > > My boxes are stored locally under ~/.vagrant.d/boxes/<box > > name>/<version>/<provider?>/ > > Anyway, what should I update there? > > > > On Monday, December 7, 2015 at 2:10:55 AM UTC+2, Alvaro Miranda Aguilera > > wrote: > >> > >> Hello, > >> > >> When you import a box, it goes to > >> > >> ~/.vagrant.d/boxes/<user>/<box> > >> > >> Can you check there? > >> > >> You may want to update around that directory. > >> > >> Alvaro. > >> > >> On Mon, Dec 7, 2015 at 4:35 AM, Gaston <[email protected]> wrote: > >> > I would say, instead of at 'provisioning' stage, upon VM creation. > >> > Those properties cannot be injected after VM has been created. > >> > In manual deployment, the properties are supplied in a VM deployment > >> > wizard, > >> > based on the OVF file. > >> > > >> > On Sunday, December 6, 2015 at 5:09:29 PM UTC+2, Gaston wrote: > >> >> > >> >> Hi all; > >> >> I am building an automation framework which will deploy customized > >> >> boxes > >> >> using vcloud plugin. > >> >> I wonder whether Vagrant allows me to supply a VM property which is > >> >> defined in my OVF file upon provision and not setting it as default > >> >> value > >> >> for this property upon box creation. > >> >> > >> >> For example, in my ovf file I have the following currency property: > >> >>> > >> >>> <Property ovf:key="currency" ovf:type="string" > >> >>> ovf:userConfigurable="true" ovf:value="USD - US Dollar".....> > >> >> > >> >> > >> >> Until now I used to override this 'currency' value 'USD' with an > >> >> alternative supported currency (i.e. EUR) in the ovf file and then > >> >> packing > >> >> this ovf into a Vagrant box. > >> >> This was a manageable solution until multiple variables appear in my > >> >> box > >> >> (multiple boxes with small ovf file differences). > >> >> Now I need to create a single box and supply all this variables upon > VM > >> >> provisioning (the values can be supplied in Vagrantfile). > >> >> > >> >> Ideas? > >> > > >> > -- > >> > This mailing list is governed under the HashiCorp Community > Guidelines - > >> > https://www.hashicorp.com/community-guidelines.html.
