Brightbox plugin for Vagrant

Some of you who watch the Gem feeds may have noticed that I sneaked out a provider plugin for Vagrant that supports Brightbox.

Vagrant is a tool, written in Ruby, that allows you to create a complete development environment with a single command - saving loads of time and getting you productive sooner.

The Brightbox plugin allows you to create that environment on Brightbox as easily as you can locally.

So if you’re a Vagrant fan (or you become one after trying it out), then please give the plugin a go and see how you get on.

The instructions on how to use the plugin are on Github, along with the code. This is very much a beta release so please report any issues you find.

At the moment it’s not 100% seamless - as you have to add the dummy box and then fiddle with the image settings. But I’m working on that so stay tuned…

If you have any problems, drop us a line at support@brightbox.com or if you think you found a bug then open an issue on Github.
