Debian Vagrant boxes

Vagrant boxes

Generate Vagrant boxes with packer.

There are three flavors available:

• debian-7-amd64-plain: Minimalistic Debian with Virtualbox-additions where applicable.
• debian-7-amd64-default: Like above, plus git, rsync, ruby and puppet.
• debian-7-amd64-cm: Like above, plus CM framework dependencies.

Boxes are built and released on Vagrant Cloud for virtualbox and aws.

Usage: Virtualbox

Example Vagrantfile:

Vagrant.configure('2') do |config|
  config.vm.box = 'cargomedia/debian-7-amd64-default'
end

Usage: AWS

Based on official Debian AMIs. Available regions: eu-west-1, us-east-1.

Example Vagrantfile (using the vagrant AWS provider plugin):

Vagrant.configure('2') do |config|
  config.vm.box = 'cargomedia/debian-7-amd64-default'

  config.vm.provider :aws do |aws, override|
    override.ssh.username = 'admin'
    override.ssh.private_key_path = '~/.ssh/<private-key>.pem'

    aws.region = 'eu-west-1'
    aws.instance_type = 'm3.large'
    aws.access_key_id = '<aws-access-key>'
    aws.secret_access_key = '<aws-secret-key>'
    aws.keypair_name = '<keypair-name>'
    aws.security_groups = '<security-group-id>'

    aws.block_device_mapping = [
      {
        'DeviceName' => '/dev/sda',
        'VirtualName' => 'root',
        'Ebs.VolumeSize' => 100,
        'Ebs.DeleteOnTermination' => true,
        'Ebs.VolumeType' => 'io1',
        'Ebs.Iops' => 2000
      }
    ]
  end
end

Development (building and uploading)

Download required puppet modules using librarian-puppet:

cd puppet
librarian-puppet install

Rake parameters:

• builder: A list of builders to use (Default: all builders)
• aws_key_id: AWS key id
• aws_key_secret: AWS key secret
• vagrant_cloud_username: Vagrant Cloud username
• vagrant_cloud_access_token: Vagrant Cloud access token

rake build    # Build all boxes
rake spec     # Run serverspec tests (virtualbox build only!)
rake release  # Release boxes to S3 and Vagrant Cloud
