CureMint setup

• Install VirtualBox 5.2.14 and Vagrant 2.0.2

• Download the custom vagrant box curemint-dev-env-v4.box and the Vagrantfile

• Install the vagrant-disksize plugin

  • vagrant plugin install vagrant-disksize

• Windows user's install git bash (or cygwin (preferable))

• Generate the SSH keys(if not already present):

  • ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "your_email@example.com"

• Then add your SSH key to the ssh-agent (This step is to be performed on HOST Machine)

  • ssh-add -K ~/.ssh/id_rsa
  • For Windows users if the above step did not work then run eval $(ssh-agent -s)

• Check whether your SSH key are added to the ssh-agent

  • ssh-add -l or ssh-add -l -Emd5

• Go to you Documents(preferable) folder on you system and create a folder curemint_env(preferable)

• Within this folder place the above downloaded curemint-dev-env-v4.box and Vagrantfile

• From within this folder through your Terminal (or command prompt) run

  • vagrant box add curemint-dev-env-v4 curemint-dev-env-v4.box (this will take a while)

• Then after that run

  • sudo vagrant up (this will bring up the vagrant machine)

• Then after than run

  • sudo vagrant ssh (this will take us inside the vagrant box (which has ubuntu xenial LTS will all the tools that we need) which will act as out development environment)

• When inside the vagrant box go to the /home/vagrant/web folder by running

  • cd /home/vagrant/web

• Then clone the pantheon repository by running

  • git clone ssh://codeserver.dev.e7c1f0be-57f1-4a87-81a6-ee8dbf055d10@codeserver.dev.e7c1f0be-57f1-4a87-81a6-ee8dbf055d10.drush.in:2222/~/repository.git curemint (it will ask Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? then enter yes) this will clone the pantheon repo.

Leave this step for now

• Then we need to import the database curemint.sql(place this file within the curemint_dev folder and it will available inside the vagrant box) for this we need to do the following:
  • sudo mysql -u vagrant -p then it will prompt for a password then enter Vagrant@123 after this we will in the MySQL terminal.
  • Then run create database curemint;
  • Then run use curemint;
  • Then run source curemint.sql; (this will take a while)
  • When done run exit this will kick us out of MySQL
• After this process is complete enter exit and run. (This is will take us out of the Vagrant box)

END

• Then edit the hosts file by running sudo vi /etc/hosts and at the end add these two lines and save the hosts file.

  • 192.168.68.8 localdev
  • 192.168.68.8 localdev.curemint

• Then in your browser navigate to http://localdev it will show us apache's default page which means It Works :) .

• For Windows users perform these additional steps for SMB/CIFS file mount

  • sudo apt-get install samba
  • Then do sudo vi /etc/samba/smb.conf this will open the smb.conf file in write mode.
  • Add this snippet to the end of the smb.conf file and save this file.
