#+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]]
|
|
To make sure that for the boxes the have the newest
|
|
VirtualBox-additions do
|
|
: vagrant plugin install vagrant-vbguest
|
|
This installs a plugin that tries to update the guest addition if
|
|
they are for an older version of VirtualBox
|
|
* 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 =~/foam/foam-extend-3.0= the sources are
|
|
available. Modifications can be pushed "outside" the virtual machine
|
|
with
|
|
: hg push
|
|
There is also a symbolic link =~/foam/foam-extend-3.0-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
|
|
- centos65 :: A CentOS 6.5 machine with preinstalled development
|
|
tools
|
|
- freebsd92 :: FreeBSD 9.2 32-bit machine. Untested
|
|
- freebsd10 :: FreeBSD 10.0 32-big machine. Currently does not boot
|
|
properly
|
|
- opensuse12 :: OpenSUSE 12.3 machine. Boots but is not provisioned
|
|
Some machines (read: the BSD-boxes) need the =VirtualBox Extension
|
|
Pack= installed (because they have USB 2.0)
|
|
* Scripts
|
|
In the home directory these scripts are found
|
|
- bootstrapFoam.sh :: A script whose aim it is to compile Foam and
|
|
the ThirdParty-packages in one go (no paraview and QT). If this
|
|
works the box is considered operational
|
