[Koha-devel] Kohadevbox for testing Packages+Plack

[Jonathan Druart]

It works perfectly with a Jessie host.
Note that I am using vagrant 1.6.5 and ansible 1.7.2.

Some questions:
1/ > $ export SYNC_REPO=/home/katrina/kohaclone
Why this variable is not in the vars/user.yml file?
The process explodes if not defined:
TASK: [kohadevbox | Gitify the Koha instance] *********************************
failed: [jessie] => {"changed": true, "cmd": "./koha-gitify kohadev
/home/vagrant/kohaclone", "delta": "0:00:00.045243", "end":
"2015-09-23 09:12:58.035161", "rc": 2, "start": "2015-09-23
09:12:57.989918"}
stderr: ERROR: git checkout not found at (/home/vagrant/kohaclone)


2/ Can we imagine several instances running? How can we access them separately?

3/ Can we imagine a way to automatically insert a specific DB (from
the contrib/sandboxes repo for instance)?

Cheers,
Jonathan

> To try/use it, you need to:
>
> (1) Install the latest vagrant:
>   https://www.vagrantup.com/downloads.html
>
> (2) Install the latest ansible:
>
> http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/intro_installation.html#latest-releases-via-apt-ubuntu
>
> (3) Install nfs-kernel-server (for re-using your host machine cloned repo)
>   $ sudo apt-get install nfs-kernel-server
>
> (4) Clone the kohadevbox repo https://github.com/digibib/kohadevbox.git
>
> (5) Checkout the 'ansible' branch.
>
> (6) Dive into the directory, uncomment the lines you would like to tweak in
> vars/user.yml (email, name, bz configuration, etc)
>
> (7) Set an env variable pointing to your local koha clone (for example)
>   $ export SYNC_REPO=/home/katrina/kohaclone
>
> (8) Launch kohadevbox for the desired distribution:
>   $ vagrant up trusty
> or
>   $ vagrant up wheezy
> or
>   $ vagrant up jessie
>
> Once you have your vagrant environment up and running, you will have access
> to Koha like this:
> - OPAC: http://localhost:8080
> - Staff: http://localhost:8081
>
> After this, you can enable Plack from within the VM by running:
>
>  $ vagrant ssh <os> # to get into
>  $ sudo -s # gain root access
>  $ koha-plack --enable kohadev
>  $ koha-plack --start kohadev
>  $ service apache2 restart
>
> Once you have it running and figure how easy is to destroy your environment
> and re-create it, you will really love this (+10000 to Magnus!).
>
> So, this is a pledge to all of you, to use it so we properly test Plack on
> packages for the next release.
>
> Thanks in advance!
