Hello
Yes its possible.
Following the format, I am an Chlean IT Proffesional also in Europe!
Vagrant does have a sense of default box, its called default
you can override that and setup a name on it, this is the building block to
have a multi setup setup.
let say you start with this
Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
config.vm.box = "hashicorp/precise64"
end
It will create a vm named default inside vagrant, you can check with
vagrant status
Vagrantfile is ruby, so if you learn bit of ruby will help a lot
basically the do |config| put us inside the block, so you can create nested
objects
Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
config.vm.box = "hashicorp/precise64"
config.vm.define "box1"
end
Vagrant status here will say:
Current machine states:
box1 not created (virtualbox)
So what we have here is, anything at config. level will apply to all the
boxes and we have a way to define boxes.
Putting to work we can have:
Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
config.vm.define vm_name = "web" do |node|
node.vm.box = "hashicorp/precise64"
node.vm.hostname = vm_name
end
end
you can repeat
Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
config.vm.define vm_name = "web" do |node|
node.vm.box = "hashicorp/precise64"
node.vm.hostname = vm_name
end
config.vm.define vm_name = "db" do |node|
node.vm.box = "hashicorp/precise64"
node.vm.hostname = vm_name
end
end
you can add a loop to one
Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
prefix="node"
#node box
(1..4).each do |i|
vm_name = "#{prefix}#{i}"
config.vm.define vm_name do |node|
node.vm.box = "hashicorp/precise64"
node.vm.hostname = vm_name
end
end
end
Key point here, do |node| create a new block, and inside here whatever we
do will apply to that box only
If you want setup cpu/ram for all the boxes, you put it at config. level
if you want to setup just 1 vm hostname to <this> then you do it in a node.
level
make sense?
if you want to add provisioning, at config. level will apply to all the
boxes
at node. level will apply to that particular box
let me know if this helps to get you started
Thanks
Alvaro
