The vagrant box that I selected comes bare bones and pip is not available.
#VAGRANT BOX INSTALL#
Prior to installing ansible via pip I must first install pip. This is the error that I received when attempting that install method:Į: The repository ' focal Release' does not have a Release file.Īnother approach that vagrant allows is installation via pip. On Ubuntu 20.04 I had issues using that method as focal was not recognized as a valid option. The default method is installing via the operating system package manager. There’s a couple methods you can use for the installation. The ansible local provisioner will first install ansible on the vagrant box. Once the vagrant box is online it will run the provisioner. When you perform a vagrant up vagrant will first bring the vagrant box online. The next statement goes into our ansible local provisioner. The config.vm.box statement defines the vagrant box that we’re going to use (bento/ubuntu-20.04). galaxy_command = "sudo ansible-galaxy install -r /vagrant/collections/requirements.yml" end end pip_install_cmd = "sudo apt install -y python3-distutils & curl | sudo python3" ansible. provision "ansible_local" do |ansible | ansible. Looking at the Vagrantfile in our example github repo you’ll see that it’s pretty simple. The basic gist of a Vagrantfile is it essentially defines your vagrant environment - the virtual boxes, their network connectivity, resources, etc. In this post I won’t go into much detail on the Vagrantfile aside from the provisioner section. Check out the documentation provided in the previous statement to learn more about Vagrantfiles and everything you can do within one. Whenever you are working with vagrant boxes you are going to have a Vagrantfile defined. Install a Vagrant Provider on your workstation.Prerequisites #īefore you begin you need to do the following: If you would like to follow along I have created an example located in github here. In this post I’ll go over how I use the ansible local provisioner to install FRRouting on a Ubuntu 20.04 vagrant box. The ones I find myself using most are the shell provisioner and ansible local provisioner. A handy feature that vagrant provides to make this possible is the ability to use provisioners that can execute a script prior to the vagrant box being ready for use. In the situation of creating lab environments I may need to install FRRouting on the vagrant box and then apply a configuration. Often times when I’m using a vagrant box I need to get it in a certain state before it’s ready for me to begin using. I usually use them for development environments or creating lab environments for testing various network functions (i.e. He was perpetually homeless, could tell a story like nobody’s business, and he could paint as well as Norval Morrisseau.I’ve been working with vagrant boxes for quite awhile now. Tom was an Ojibwa man who was a self-described chronic alcoholic. She wrote Tom’s Story over a sixteen-year period from 1998 to 2014 when she had a close and often complicated friendship with Tom Hogan. As the result of her study and work, she felt drawn to, and most comfortable with, people who were marginalized due to addictions, HIV, homelessness, mental illness, childhood trauma and abuse. She left the world of graphic design to study addictions and psychology, partly because her youngest brother died of an overdose. The author has written and produced two documentary films about homeless people who chose life on the streets rather than staying in the shelters. She is also a graduate of the Adult Enrichment Program at the University of Ottawa. Jo-Ann Oosterman is a graduate of The Humber School for Writers where she studied under the mentorship of David Adams Richards and received a Letter of Distinction for “superior writing merit” after completing the first draft of Tom’s Story.
