#+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
