This is a fork of the IBM-Swift vagrant image for developing swift. This fork was modified to load a snapshot from swift.org to more conveniently try server side development with swift. You can find more on getting started with Swift at swift.org/getting-started
This repository provides a Vagrantfile which will automatically provision and
configure swift with Ubuntu 16.10 as a development environment. It also includes
the tooling to create a Docker based development snapshot
The Vagrantfile will:
- Install an Ubuntu 16.10 virtual machine
- Install development prerequisites
- Install a swift compiler and related tool chain
The script update_swift_snapshot.py will download the latest development
snapshot and build an Ubuntu 16.10 based docker image with it installed.
$ git clone https://github.com/heckj/vagrant-ubuntu-swift-dev.git
$ cd vagrant-ubuntu-swift-dev
$ vagrant up
Once your VM has been provisioned, connect to it using the vagrant ssh command.
vagrant ssh:
vagrant@vagrant:~$ swift --version
Swift version 4.0-dev (LLVM 13d90f33cc, Clang 9d4bf0beef, Swift b2efaab218)
