vagrant-invade

vagrant-invade is a plugin for Vagrant, the tool for creating and maintain virtual machines.
It uses a simple YAML configuration file to automatically build a Vagrantfile for your projects.

How to install

Simply run vagrant plugin install vagrant-invade
To install a certain version use the -v 'VERSION' option.

Commands

There are new commands you can use to init, validate and build a Vagrantfile.

Init

vagrant invade init creates the default invade.yml configuration file for you.

Check

vagrant invade check will check the checksum of Vagrantfile and invade.yml data. Helpful to check the files without using the build command.

Validate

vagrant invade validate will validate the invade.yml file and gives you a detailed output of missing values, wrong parameters and defaults for each option.

Build

vagrant invade build will build a Vagrantfile based on what you configured in the 'invade.yml' file and place it to the directory you did run the command. The old Vagrantfile will be saved as backup.
