#+TITLE: Virtual machines for testing and Packaging
|
||
|
|
* Prerequisites
|
||
|
|
These virtual machines require
|
||
|
|
- VirtualBox :: for running from [[https://www.virtualbox.org]]
|
||
|
|
- Vagrant :: to automatically set them up from [[http://www.vagrantup.com]]
|
||
|
|
* Starting
|
||
|
|
A virtual machine is set up with
|
||
|
|
: vagrant up <machineName>
|
||
|
|
will download a virtual machine image and set it up. It will then
|
||
|
|
modify the image:
|
||
|
|
- add packages required to compile OpenFOAM and package it
|
||
|
|
- mount the directory of the sources
|
||
|
|
- from this directory clone it to the local disc with mercurial or
|
||
|
|
git (whatever the parent uses)
|
||
|
|
One can then connect to the virtual machine with
|
||
|
|
: vagrant ssh <machinName>
|
||
|
|
and will be in the =$HOME= directory of the user =vagrant= where in
|
||
|
|
the directory =~/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.6-ext= the sources are
|
||
|
|
available. Modifications can be pushed "outside" the virtual machine
|
||
|
|
with
|
||
|
|
: hg push
|
||
|
|
There is also a symbolic link =~/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.6-ext-parent=
|
||
|
|
to the sources if you want to edit there directly. Use with care
|
||
|
|
and don't compile in that directory unless you know what you're
|
||
|
|
doing
|
||
|
|
* Virtual machines
|
||
|
|
Currently existing virtual machines are
|
||
|
|
- precise :: Latest LTS Ubuntu.
|
||
|
|
- lucid :: Previous LTS Ubuntu. Currently problems
|
||
|
|
with automatic setting up (something with the
|
||
|
|
=postfix=-package)
|
||
|
|
- maverick :: Tries to fix the problems with the
|
||
|
|
=lucid=-machine. Not yet working
|
