Script for opening a rails console for an app within vagrant

vrc

#! /bin/bash

if [[ -z $1 ]]; then
  APP_NAME=$(basename `pwd`)
else
  APP_NAME=$1
fi

echo "Opening Rails Console for $APP_NAME in vagrant..."
cd ~/vagrant && vagrant ssh -c "cd /pub/$APP_NAME/current && bundle exec rails console"

Add cd - or cd code/$APP_NAME to the end, so that when you log out of vagrant, you end up where you were on the host.

Also, line 4: pwd | sed 's,.*vagrant/code/\([^/]*\).*,\1,' to make it work even when you're in a sub-directory.

This should drop you back out if you typo the app_name, rather than leave you sitting in the VM: vagrant ssh -c "cd /pub/$APP_NAME/current || exit; bundle exec rails console"
