A vagrant setup for running ruby apps

Vagrant Ruby

This is a Vagrant VM to run ruby projects. It includes:

• Ruby 2.3
• Postgres 9.4
• Nginx with Passenger

Installation

1. Install Vagrant
2. cd path_to_vagrant_ruby
3. vagrant up

Setting up your project.

1. A suggestion is to create a new git branch to update configs for your project:

git checkout my-project

2. Update your Vagrantfile shared folders on the Configure shared folder section. This will make your host machine files enabled on the guest VM. If the default filesystem is too slow for you, you can try other Vagrant options.

3. For web projects, setup an Nginx config to load your site (see the Nginx details section below).

4. The Vagrant VM is configured to run on the private IP 192.168.68.8 by default. To access your site from the host machine, go to http://192.168.68.8. You can configure your /etc/hosts for a friendlier name, or check dnsmasq for more advanced setups (like automatic subdomain support).

Postgres details

A vagrant superuser is created for Postgres with password vagrant.

Nginx details

To add a Passenger site to Nginx, create a file like /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/my-site, with the content from scripts/templates/nginx/app.example.conf adapted to your site, and restart nginx.
