fgrehm/vagrant-ubuntu repository overview

⁠Ubuntu Precise base box

This folder contains an example of a Dockerfile that builds an image ready for usage with Vagrant. Please check out the source⁠ for more information on building your own.

To turn this into a box:

docker build -t myuser/vagrant-ubuntu:precise .
docker push myuser/vagrant-ubuntu:precise
sed 's/IMAGE/myuser\/vagrant-ubuntu:precise/' Vagrantfile.sample > Vagrantfile
tar cvzf precise.box ./metadata.json ./Vagrantfile

This box works by using Vagrant's built-in Vagrantfile merging to setup defaults for Docker. These defaults can easily be overwritten by higher-level Vagrantfiles (such as project root Vagrantfiles).
