# vagrant-cachier
|
|
|
|
A [Vagrant](http://www.vagrantup.com/) plugin that helps you reduce the amount of
|
|
coffee you drink while waiting for boxes to be provisioned by sharing a common
|
|
package cache among similiar VM instances. Kinda like [vagrant-apt_cache](https://github.com/avit/vagrant-apt_cache)
|
|
or [this magical snippet](http://gist.github.com/juanje/3797297) but targetting
|
|
multiple package managers and Linux distros.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
Make sure you have Vagrant 1.4+ and run:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
vagrant plugin install vagrant-cachier
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Quick start
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to set things up is just to enable [cache buckets auto detection](usage)
|
|
from within your `Vagrantfile`:
|
|
|
|
```ruby
|
|
Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
|
|
config.vm.box = 'your-box'
|
|
if Vagrant.has_plugin?("vagrant-cachier")
|
|
config.cache.auto_detect = true
|
|
# If you are using VirtualBox, you might want to enable NFS for shared folders
|
|
# config.cache.enable_nfs = true
|
|
end
|
|
end
|
|
```
|
|
