Building the boxes
In order to build the boxes you need to have the lxc-download
template available on your machine. If you don't have one around please
create one based on this
and drop it on your lxc templates path (usually /usr/share/lxc/templates
).
git clone https://github.com/obnoxxx/vagrant-lxc-base-boxes.git
cd vagrant-lxc-base-boxes
make precise
By default no provisioning tools will be included but you can pick the ones you want by providing some environmental variables. For example:
ANSIBLE=1 PUPPET=1 CHEF=1 SALT=1 BABUSHKA=1 \
make precise
Will build a Ubuntu Precise x86_64 box with latest Ansible, Puppet, Chef, Salt and Babushka pre-installed.
When using ANSIBLE=1, an optional ANSIBLE_VERSION parameter may be passed that will specify which version of ansible to install. By default it will install the latest Ansible.
Additional packages to be installed can be specified with the ADDPACKAGES variable:
ADDPACKAGES="aptitude htop" \
make trusty
Will build a Ubuntu Trusty x86_64 box with aptitude and htop as additional packages pre-installed. You can also specify the packages in a file trusty_packages.
Note: ADDPACKAGES is currently only implemented for flavors of debian.
