Vagrant plugin for Falk

Open D4N opened this issue 6 years ago • 1 comments

Vagrant is a very convenient tool to create VMs from a configuration file (very much like docker with a dockerfile). Would a vagrant plugin be something useful for kevin? This would allow developers to define VMs via a config file, that then would be spun up by vagrant (probably via falk). Vagrant could then use the builtin provisioner to run chantal, or simply ssh into the VM after it has been launched via vagrant ssh. Vagrant also supports multiple virtualization backends (libvirt, virtualbox, vmware but also docker & lxc) and provides a unified interface to all these. I think it can even run windows in VM, but have never tried it.

Would this be a useful addon/plugin for kevin?

I think it would be a valuable addition. I have no experience with vagrant, but if it existe to create and provide vm images, it's perfect for another backend of falk.
