Vagrant LAMP stack

A dead-simple LAMP stack without any bells and whistles for your basic Linux/Apache/MySQL/PHP install, using Chef Solo for provisioning.

The idea is for developers to fork this and add additional software and configuration that suits the needs of their project.

Requirements

• VirtualBox
• Vagrant
• Berkshelf
  • gem install berkshelf --no-ri --no-rdoc
• vagrant-berkshelf
  • vagrant plugin install vagrant-berkshelf --plugin-version '>= 2.0.1'
• vagrant-hostmanager
  • vagrant plugin install vagrant-hostmanager
• vagrant-omnibus
  • vagrant plugin install vagrant-omnibus
• vagrant-cachier
  • vagrant plugin install vagrant-cachier

Installation

Clone this repository

$ git clone git@github.com:pekastel/Vagrant-LAMP-Stack.git

Place your website in the public folder

Usage

Start the VM

$ cd Vagrant-LAMP-Stack
$ vagrant up

You can now access your project at http://projectname.local

Database dump import

Chef will automatically try to import the database dump specified by the filename set in the :db_dump option of your Vagrantfile.

If you are using the default configuration, just create a dump.sql file in the root directory with your table structure and/or content and it will be imported automatically when you run vagrant up.
