vagrant commands for the lazy and forgetful

Vagrant commands :

  • vagrant up  – aka “clocking on at work, time to boot up the VM”
  • vagrant status – aka “did I leave that VM running last night?”
  • vagrant halt – aka “time to go home or change project”
  • vagrant destroy – aka “VM is broken; kill it with fire and deploy a virgin VM to start again”
  • vagrant package default –output /path/to/output/file.box – aka “I like this VM, I think I’ll keep a copy around somewhere for future purposes”
  • vagrant init – aka “Get this project started …”

 

Obviously requires you have a reasonably good ‘Vagrantfile’ to start with…..
