Vagrant - Getting Started | Install ＞ Setup ＞ Use
Step 1 - Install Vagrant https://www.vagrantup.com/downloads Check vagrant is installed vagrant --version
Step 2 - Select a VM Provider. Vagrant has direct support for VirtualBox, Hyper-V, Docker
Install VirtualBox https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downl...
Step 3 - Create a new folder for Vagrant project
Step 4 - On terminal or command line navigate to the folder and initiate vagrant project vagrant init
This will create a new Vagrantfile in the folder
Vagrantfile is a configuration file that defines the settings for your virtual machine
Step 5 - Choose a box to use https://app.vagrantup.com/boxes/search
A box is a pre-configured virtual machine image that you can use as a starting point for your virtual machine
Step 6 - Add configuration of the box in vagrantfile
For example, you could use the "ubuntu/bionic64" box by adding the following line to your Vagrantfile:
config.vm.box = "ubuntu/bionic64"
We can also directly add configuration for the virtual machine using the following commands
vagrant init centos/7 (if vagrantfile does not already exists)
vagrant box add centos/7 (will add box to vagrant, but will not create Vagrant file)
Step 7 - Start virtual machine using command vagrant up
This will create a new virtual machine using the box you selected and start it. The first time, Vagrant will download the box from the internet
Step 8 - SSH into the virtual machine vagrant ssh

vagrant box add

vagrant box add ubuntu/focal64
