Test
Setup environment
$ git clone https://github.com/jesa7955/vagrant-bhyve.git
$ cd vagrant-bhyve
$ bundle install --path vendor/bundle --binstubs
Note we will need package coreutils and dnsmasq(and of course we will need grub-bhyve to boot Linux box), vagrant-bhyve will try to install them with pkg.
Create a box
Thanks to Steve Wills's work, now you can convert a VirtualBox box to a bhyve one with vagrant-mutate.
Run the box
After a box is created, you should create another Vagrantfile.
Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
config.vm.box = "boxname"
end
then execute this command to start the box with bhyve
$ /path/to/vagrant-bhyve/bin/vagrant up --provider=bhyve
SSH into the box
After the box is booted(uped), you can ssh into by executing this command. Note that you will have to use password to authorize for now.
$ /path/to/vagrant-bhyve/bin/vagrant ssh
Shutdown the box and cleanup
This command will shutdown the booted VM and clean up environment
$ /path/to/vagrant-bhyve/bin/vagrant halt
Destroy the box
$ /path/to/vagrant-bhyve/vagrant destroy
