Instructions to start "Vagrantfile_pairing" vagrant box

Vagrantfile_pairing creates a CentOS/7 environment that hosts a number of development tools. These tools meet the requirements here. Ensure that you meet the "Vagrant Box prerequisites" listed in README.md before attempting to start the vagrant box.

Spin up the VM by executing the command below :

• export VAGRANT_VAGRANTFILE=Vagrantfile_pairing
• clear && vagrant destroy --force && vagrant up --color

All resources developed during the pair programming exercise will be stored in the ./Vagrantfile_pairing_folder

Docker container usage

If you need a tool that is not available in this environment, you may use that tool in a container form. As an example, see the command below for Maven:

• alias mvn='docker run -it --rm --name maven --network host -v $HOME/.m2:/root/.m2 -v $PWD:/usr/src/maven -w /usr/src/maven maven mvn'
• mvn --version
• sudo chown -R $USER:$USER $HOME/.m2

Eclipse Che:

• docker run --rm --name eclipse-che -it -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v $PWD:/data eclipse/che start

More examples of using containers afer cloning the code:

• git clone https://github.com/shazChaudhry/Equal_Experts_tech_test.git
• cd Equal_Experts_tech_test

An other example Test Ansible role in a container

• docker container stop $(docker container ps -aq) (This will stop all running containers)
• docker container rm $(docker container ps -aq) (This will remove all containers)
• docker container run --rm -it -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v $PWD:/tmp -w /tmp/ansible/roles/install-jenkins quay.io/ansible/molecule:latest sudo molecule test
