Vagrant Package Manager
This is not actually a package manager, but rather a helper to make npm
work
nicer with shared folders in Vagrant.
Setup Vagrant
- Add a customize line into your
Vagrantfile
:
Replace <synced folder>
with the path to your synced folder. With a default
vagrant setup the path would simply be /vagrant
.
config.vm.provider "virtualbox" do |v|
v.customize ["setextradata", :id, "VBoxInternal2/SharedFoldersEnableSymlinksCreate/<synced folder>", "1"]
end
- Run your terminal (Command Prompt, Git Bash, Powershell, ...) in Administrator mode. Simply right click on the app icon and select "Run as Administrator". Then setup vagrant as normal:
$ vagrant up
...
$ vagrant ssh
NOTE: Make sure you run vagrant up
while in Administrator mode.
Install
$ sudo npm install -g vagrant-pm
Usage
Initialize Symlink
$ cd my-project
$ vpm init
Created link node_modules -> /home/vagrant/.vagrant_modules/my-project/node_modules
By default the symlink will be created in $HOME/.vagrant_modules
, it can be
overidden with the VPM_MODULES_PATH
environment variable:
$ export VPM_MODULES_PATH=/tmp/foo
$ vpm init
Created link node_modules -> /tmp/foo/my-project/node_modules
Clean out modules
Delete the symlink and the modules in the target.
$ vpm clean
Cleaned node_modules.
