vagrant-node

This plugin allows you to set a computer with a virtual environment configured with Vagrant to be controlled and managed remotely. The remote machine must have installed the controller plugin, Vagrant-NodeMaster.

With this plugin installed the Vagrant environment can perform requests, that you usually can execute locally, but commanded by a remote computer. This service is provided through a REST API that this plugin exposes.

This plugin has been developed in the context of the Catedra SAES of the University of Murcia(Spain).

##Installation Requires Vagrant 1.2 and libsqlite3-dev

$ vagrant plugin install vagrant-node

##Usage In order to start the service provided by vagrant-node do:

$ vagrant nodeserver start [port]

Port parameter is optional, its default value is 3333.

If you want to stop the service just do the follogin:

$ vagrant nodeserver stop

Important:

The main lack of this version is that there is no type of authentication mechanism. Be carefull when you use it in a public infraestructure.

To-Do:

• Because the plugin is still under development, there are some comments and puts sentences that will be removed in latter versions.
• An enhanced and more rich error mechanism between the local machine and remote controller
• Lots of things...
