Website/vagrant

This Vagrant setup is still Work in Progress, though it can be used as is.

Disroot Website Development Environment using Vagrant

If you prefer the easy way, just execute the vagrant.sh script provided. Make sure your user is in sudoers first. ⚠️ It has been tested with Debian Buster only. ⚠️

requirements

1. vagrant 2.2.17 for install on Debian run commands:

   wget https://releases.hashicorp.com/vagrant/2.2.17/vagrant_2.2.17_x86_64.deb
   sudo dpkg -i vagrant_2.2.17_x86_64.deb
   sudo apt install -f
   

2. virtualbox

   for install on Debian Buster run command:

   sudo echo 'deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian buster contrib' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/virtualbox.list
   wget -q https://www.virtualbox.org/download/oracle_vbox_2016.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add -
   wget -q https://www.virtualbox.org/download/oracle_vbox.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add -
   sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get install virtualbox-6.1
   

3. vagrant plugins vagrant-vbguest:
   for install on Debian run commands:

   vagrant plugin install vagrant-vbguest
   

4. git

   sudo apt install git
   

Installation

1. Create a Disroot folder, in which you'll clone six repositories:

   mkdir ~/Disroot
   

2. Clone the repositories

   cd ~/Disroot
   git clone https://git.disroot.org/Disroot/Website.git Website
   git clone https://git.disroot.org/Disroot/grav-theme-disroot.git grav-theme-disroot
   git clone https://git.disroot.org/Disroot/grav-theme-disrootblog.git grav-theme-disrootblog
   git clone https://git.disroot.org/Disroot/grav-plugin-language-selector.git grav-plugin-language-selector
   git clone https://git.disroot.org/Disroot/Disroot-Privacy-Policy.git Disroot-Privacy-Policy
   git clone https://git.disroot.org/Disroot/CHANGELOG.git Disroot-Changelog
   git clone https://git.disroot.org/Disroot/Disroot-ToS.git Disroot-ToS
   

3. Add the local domain name for the hub to your host machine's /etc/hosts file.

   sudo echo "192.168.33.12 disroot.lan" >> /etc/hosts
   

4. Launch Vagrant to build the virtual machine (VM). This will take several minutes.

   cd ~/Disroot/Website/vagrant
   vagrant up disroot_lan
   

Congratulations, you should now have a fully functioning apache+GRAV server running locally in a Virtualbox-hosted VM managed by Vagrant. Next time you want to run vagrant simply run command bash cd ~/Disroot/Website/vagrant vagrant up disroot_lan vagrant provision

Enable SSH access

To make your development workflow more efficient, you may wish to use an SSH connection to rapidly synchronize the files you are developing in your local (host machine) development environment.

1. On your host machine, copy your public key.

   user@host:~$ cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.public
   	ssh-rsa eLX1UQbJHUCHf2V3K7YlMP0YmIT+50rlEsWre1eobApKb0Ac/WbvssX/Gh/ user@host
   

2. Use vagrant ssh disroot_lan to log in to the virtual machine.

   user@host:~$ cd ~/Disroot/Website/vagrant
   user@host:hubzilla-vagrant$ vagrant ssh disroot_lan
   

3. Switch to root and add your host user public key.

   vagrant@stretch:~$ sudo -i
   root@jessie:~# ssh-keygen
   		Generating public/private rsa key pair.
   		Enter file in which to save the key (/root/.ssh/id_rsa):
   		Created directory '/root/.ssh'.
   		Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
   		Enter same passphrase again:
   		Your identification has been saved in /root/.ssh/id_rsa.
   		Your public key has been saved in /root/.ssh/id_rsa.pub.
   		The key fingerprint is:
   		b4:e3:00:40:4f:c5:af:27:05:09:d4:70:29:ac:f8:51 root@jessie
   		The key's randomart image is:
   		+---[RSA 2048]----+
   		| .oo=*oo         |
   		|   +E.*          |
   		| . oo. o.        |
   		|. o  . .o.       |
   		| . .  .oS        |
   		|  .   oo..       |
   		|       o.        |
   		|                 |
   		|                 |
   		+-----------------+
   root@stretch:~# echo "ssh-rsa eLX1UQbJHUCHf2V3K7YlMP0YmIT+50rlEsWre1eobApKb0Ac/WbvssX/Gh/ user@host" >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
   

4. From your host machine, you may now SSH into the virtual machine using

   ssh root@disroot.lan
