Mint cinnamon + LAMP Ansible playbook
- Install Vagrant (http://www.vagrantup.com/downloads.html)
- Install Oracle Virtualbox 5.0 platform package & Extension Pack (https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads)
- Open a Windows/DOS command line terminal and enter the following commands
> vagrant plugin install vagrant-persistent-storage
> vagrant box add artem-sidorenko/mint-18.0-cinnamon
> cd C:\path\to\vagrant-mint
> vagrant up
A few reasons why you may find convenient logging in and developing as www-data (apache user):
- The /var/www folder can be mapped as a Windows network drive (see below for instructions)
- The /var/www folder persists even after vagrant destroy (persistent storage plugin)
- Avoid ownership and permission conflicts with apache
username: www-data
password: www-data
Provisioning can take a few minutes, when complete write down the ip address shown for
enp0s8 -> inet addr
Samba is also included to allow use of your favorite Windows IDE On Windows Explorer right click on 'This PC'
Map network drive -> \xx.xx.xx.xx\www-data
Where xx.xx.xx.xx = your.vagrant.ip
User/pwd: www-data/www-data
The xx.xx.xx.xx ip should be on screen once 'vagrant up' has completed. Look underenp0s8 -> inet addr
Based on the artem-sidorenko/mint-18.0-cinnamon vagrant image.
