Vagrant is distributed as a binary packagefor all supported platforms and architectures. You can alsocompile Vagrant from source, which is covered in theREADME.

Vagrant init bento/ubuntu-16.04 Next, build and start the vagrant hosted VM, and you will install Singularity by sending the entire install script as a command (with the -cargument). You could just as easily shell into the box first with vagrant ssh, and then run.

»Install Vagrant

1. » Installing Vagrant. Installing Vagrant is extremely easy. Head over to the Vagrant downloads page and get the appropriate installer or package for your platform. Install the package using standard procedures for your operating system. The installer will automatically add vagrant to your system path so that it is available in terminals. If it is not found, please try logging out and logging back in to your.
2. Vagrant enables users to create and configure lightweight, reproducible, and portable development environments.
3. Step 3: Once the.exe program is downloaded, please locate the file and double-click it to start setup. Step 4: Please read Microsoft Sync Framework 2.0 Core Components agreement and click the Accept button to continue.
4. FREE Vagrant Provider support: Rollback Mode: Microsoft Visual Studio plug-in. Compress VM to a single file for a convenient upload and sharing: Included with Purchase; Premium 24/7 phone and email support: Remote access to your Mac from any iOS/Android device or browser: Over 30 one-click tools—clean your drive, take screenshots, download a.

To install Vagrant, first find the appropriate package foryour system and download it. Vagrant is packaged as an operating-specificpackage. Run the installer for your system. The installer will automatically addvagrant to your system path so that it is available in terminals.

»Verify the Installation

After installing Vagrant, verify the installation worked by opening a new command prompt or console, and checking that vagrant is available.

Tip: If you receive an error that Vagrant is notfound, try logging out and logging back in to your system (particularly necessary sometimes for Windows).

»Caveats

Note: Beware of system package managers.

Some operating system distributionsinclude a vagrant package in their upstream package repos. Please do not installVagrant in this manner. Typically these packages are missing dependencies orinclude very outdated versions of Vagrant. If you install via your system'spackage manager, it is very likely that you will experience issues. Please usethe official installers on the downloads page.

You have successfully downloaded and installed Vagrant! Continue to the next tutorialto set up your first Vagrant project.

If you want to dive in to trying out Tinkerbell, this tutorial sets it up locally using Vagrant. Vagrant manages the Tinkerbell installation for this tutorial's Provisioner, and runs both the Provisioner and Worker on VirtualBox or libvirtd.

It covers some basic aspects of Tinkerbell's functionality:

• setting up a Provisioner
• creating the hardware data for the Worker
• creating a template with a placeholder action item, using the hello-world example
• and creating a workflow

The last step is to start up the Worker, which will call back to the Provisioner for its workflow.

Prerequisites

• Vagrant is installed
• Either VirtualBox or libvirtd is installed.

Getting Tinkerbell

To get Tinkerbell, clone the sandbox repository.

Move into the deploy/vagrant directory. This folder contains a Vagrant configuration file (Vagrantfile) needed to setup the Provisioner and the Worker.

Start the Provisioner

Since Vagrant is handling the Provisioner's configuration, including installing the Tinkerbell stack, run the command to start it up.

The Provisioner installs and runs Ubuntu with a couple of additional utilities. The time it takes to spin up the Provisioner varies with connection speed and resources on your local machine.

When the Provisioner is ready, you should see the following message:

Starting Tinkerbell

Now that the Provisioner's machine is up and running, you can connect and bring up Tinkerbell. SSH into the Provisioner.

Tinkerbell is going to be running from a container, so navigate to the vagrant directory, set the environment, and start the Tinkerbell stack with docker-compose.

The Tinkerbell server, and more importantly the CLI, are now managed like a standard Docker Compose project. Just make sure to have sourced the .env before issuing docker-compose commands.

Tinkerbell is now ready to receive templates and workflows. Check out all the Tinkerbell services are running.

The response shows the running services.

At this point, you might want to open a ssh connection to show logs from the Provisioner, because it will show what the tink-server is doing through the rest of the setup. Open a new terminal, ssh in to the provisioner as you did before, and run docker-compose logs to tail logs.

Install Vagrant On Macos Catalina

Later in the tutorial you can check the logs from tink-server in order to see the execution of the workflow.

The last step for the Provisioner to do at this point is to pull down the image that will be used in the workflow. Tinkerbell uses Docker registry to host images locally, so pull down the 'Hello World' docker image and push it to the registry.

Creating the Worker's Hardware Data

With the provisioner up and running, it's time to set up the worker's configuration.

First, define the Worker's hardware data, which is used to identify the Worker as the target of a workflow. Very minimal hardware data is required for this example, but it does at least need to contain the MAC Address of the Worker, which is hardcoded in the Vagrant file, and have the Worker set to allow PXE booting and accept workflows.

Then, push the hardware data to the database with the tink hardware push command.

If you are following along in the tink-server logs, you should see:

Creating a Template

Next, define the template for the workflow. The template sets out tasks for the Worker to preform sequentially. This template contains a single task with a single action, which is to perform 'hello-world'. Just as in the hello-world example, the 'hello-world' image doesn't contain any instructions that the Worker will perform. It is just a placeholder in the template so a workflow can be created and pushed to the Worker.

Create the template and push it to the database with the tink template create command.

The command returns a Template ID, and if you are watching the tink-server logs you will see:

Creating the Workflow

The next step is to combine both the hardware data and the template to create a workflow.

• First, the workflow needs to know which template to execute. The Template ID you should use was returned by tink template create command executed above.
• Second, the Workflow needs a target, defined by the hardware data. In this example, the target is identified by a MAC address set in the hardware data for our Worker, so 08:00:27:00:00:01. (Note: this MAC address is hard coded in the Vagrantfile.)

Combine these two pieces of information and create the workflow with the tink workflow create command.

The command returns a Workflow ID and if you are watching the logs, you will see:

Start the Worker

You can now bring up the Worker and execute the Workflow. In a new terminal window, move into the tink/deploy/vagrant directory, and bring up the Worker with Vagrant, similar to bringing up the Provisioner.

If you are using VirtualBox, it will bring up a UI, and after the setup, you will see a login screen. You can login with the username root and no password is required. Tinkerbell will netboot a custom AlpineOS that runs in RAM, so any changes you make won't be persisted between reboots.

Note: If you have a high-resolution monitor, here are a few notes about how to make the UI bigger.

Running Vagrant On Mac Os

At this point you should check on the Provisioner to confirm that the Workflow was executed on the Worker. If you opened a terminal window to monitor the Tinkerbell logs, you should see the execution in them.

You can also check using the tink workflow events and the Workflow ID on the Provisioner.

Summary

Getting set up locally is a good way to sample Tinkerbell's functionality. The Vagrant set up is not necessarily intended to be persistent, but while it's up and running, you can use the Provisioner to test out the CLI commands or just explore the stack.
