#Play framework and Vagrant with some Ansible magic

A simple Vagrant config with Play Framework, Ansible and MySQL server that gets you started quickly with a working example. When deployed, the folder structure will look like this:

• yourrepo/
  • frameworks/
    • play-2.2.3/
  • project/
    • example_project
  • provision/
    • templates/
    • ansible_hosts
    • playbook.yml
  • ansible.cfg
  • Vagrantfile

##Requirements

• GIT, Java, ... the basic stuff
• VirtualBox https://www.virtualbox.org/
• Vagrant http://www.vagrantup.com/ (ATOW version 1.4.3)
• Ansible http://docs.ansible.com/ (ATOW version 1.5)
• Some console knowledge :-)

##Getting Started

git clone [email protected]:torbjokv/play-vagrant.git yourrepo && cd yourrepo && vagrant up

This takes time. Grab a coffee - or two!

vagrant ssh -c "cd project && play ~run"

When it's ready, go to your browser and enter http://localhost:9000/ Le voilà!

##Tips and tricks

• If the filesystem is slow, set NETWORK_FILE_SYSTEM to true in the Vagrantfile, reboot the VM ("vagrant halt; vagrant up") and enter your root password.

##Problems?

Vagrant and ansible have good dokumentation at http://docs.vagrantup.com/v2 and http://docs.ansible.com/
