Gettings started with OS X, Vagrant & VirtualBox

  1. Create empty box with veewee You should have newest VirtualBox & Vagrant installed.
gem install veewee
veewee vbox define 'ubuntu-14.04-server' 'ubuntu-14.04-server-amd64' --workdir=/Users/madis/infra/veewee
# Change your box (e.g. add memory, it has 512MB by default)
veewee vbox build 'ubuntu-14.04-server' --workdir=/Users/madis/infra/veewee
# Wait ~10 min (Installing ubuntu is fast, compiling ruby takes time)

Shut down & export basebox and import for Vagrant use:

veewee vbox halt ubuntu-14.04-server
veewee vbox export ubuntu-14.04-server
vagrant box add --name trusty
  1. Create vagrant folder
vagrant init trusty
  1. Configure Vagrantfile to use docker provisioner

It will show error complainint that no Dockerfile found but will still install docker on the VM

  1. Install OS X docker client
