Path

  • root directory: mount the entire project.
  • app directory: mount only app directory. Not sharing generated files between machines ensure great performance but in return, source code /vendor is missing.

Mount options

RSYNC

Only useful on path set to root.

  • Loss of performance is due to files generated on the fly, by excluding them you can mount the whole directory root and get performance equal to an app mount.
  • The vagrant rsync-auto is launched by default on vagrant up, even with that if you need to force an update you can run vagrant rsync. Terminal should be kept open for rsync-auto: do not close it.
  • Rsync is unilateral, your host machine push files to guest but not the other way.
    Anyway if it's necessary, after a composer update for example, you can run vagrant rsync-back to push files from guest to host.
  • After first installation, you must run vagrant reload to enable file watching with rsync-auto.
    See Rsync option

NFS

Recommended for root and app path.
The most stable option, config has been made to ensure compliance with all OS. Less performant than rsync but files are perfectly shared between guest and host machine.

See NFS option

DEFAULT

It can be used with app path if you encountered any issue with NFS and rsync mount.

See basic usage

Extra provisions

You can add extra shell provisions.
Those provisions will be executed on pre-defined sequences:

  1. extra/001-env.sh his purpose is to provide extra environment variables or extra package, executed after script 001-system-env.sh
  2. extra/100-pre-build.sh define your specific system configuration before installation, executed after script 100-magento-pre.sh
  3. extra/120-post-build.sh you can execute magento command in this sequence, executed after script 120-magento-post.sh
  • To be executed you must remove the string -example from the filename script.
  • As an example of use, you can adapt data from your database import by using the script 100-pre-build.sh

System usage

Permission

Magento file system owner is configured for vagrant user, it means all commands in magento project must be executed by this user.
By default command line vagrant ssh will log you as vagrant user.

  • To re-apply magento permissions you can run permission directly in command line.

Command line

  • magento (Magento CLI alias)
  • magento-cloud (Magento Cloud CLI)
  • pestle (A collection of command line scripts for code generation)
  • magerun (The swiss army knife for Magento developers)
  • permission (Re-apply permissions to project)

Enable cron:

./bin/magento cron:install

Disable cron:

./bin/magento cron:remove

Issues

Windows 10

There is a known issue with composer installation on windows 10.
This issue could not be solved yet, and has already been reported 2 times.

  • This is related to the computer and BIOS configuration.
  • This is only reported on "NFS" mount option.

To solve this, I recommend to set mount option to "rsync", then after full installation you should be able to fall back to NFS.

Others

If you have trouble during installation please open a new issue on this GitHub repository.
