Only the VirtualBox and Vagrant versions specified below will work. Later versions have problems, so do not try to use them (we tried almost all of them).
-
Install VirtualBox version
4.2.24
, from here -
Add to the Windows PATH environment variable: C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox
-
Install Vagrant version
1.6.2
, from here -
Add to the Windows PATH environment variable: C:\HashiCorp\Vagrant\embedded\mingw\bin
-
Download Cygwin 64 bit and save it to c:\cygwin64setup from here
-
Run the setup file and install Cygwin with wget (web), git (devel), openssh (net) and ncurses (utils)
- Open a Cygwin64 Terminal and:
wget -O init-git.sh http://goo.gl/AvJWSH
chmod 700 init-git.sh
# i.e. ./init-git.sh "Ronen Babayoff" [email protected]
./init-git.sh "<Your Full Name>" <Your Email Address>
-
Add the outputed ssh key to your github account ssh keys (name it cygwin) here
-
Fix ssh file permissions:
# The following fixes cygwin ~/.ssh folder and file permission problems
wget -O cygwin-fix-ssh-file-permissions.sh http://goo.gl/ZXOzlA
chmod 700 cygwin-fix-ssh-file-permissions.sh
./cygwin-fix-ssh-file-permissions.sh
- Clone the shopify-lavaina repo:
# So we don't get source files with Windows end of line which makes Cygwin crazy
git config --global core.autocrlf false
cd
mkdir repos
cd repos
git clone [email protected]:lavaina/shopify-lavaina.git
cd shopify-lavaina
bin/config-git.sh
bin/vagrant-install-vm.sh <vm samba netbios name> <vagrant user samba password> "<git user.name>" <git user.email>
# i.e. bin/vagrant-install-vm.sh ronenvm MyPass "Ronen Babayoff" [email protected]
-
Add the outputed ssh key to your github account ssh keys (name it vagrant) here
-
At the end of this script a `meteor-dev-env' vm snapshot will be created.
Try and access your vagrant home directory from your windows file explorer, by accessing:
\\<netbios name>\vagrant
i.e.
\\ronenvm\vagrant
Login to access
username: vagrant
password: <MyPass>
If you can't, you need to enable netbios for all network adapters you use regularly, as in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6l2O07MbaFg and choose "Enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP" (the 2nd option)
Map a network drive to your vagrant vm repos folder, so webstorm will be able to access it without problems. Goto windows explorer, select 'This PC' and click "Map network drive". Map R:
to \\ronenvm\vagrant\repos
. In WebStorm, open R: as the project root.
First, you will need to sign up to ngrok:
-
Signup to ngrok with your github account at https://ngrok.com/
-
Have Ronen pay you 1 dollar 1 year subscription with HIS paypal
-
Go to your ngrok dashboard and reserve domain [yourname].lavaina.com, i.e. ronen.lavaina.com
-
If you don't already have one, create a file called [yourname].ngrok in shopify-lavaina/etc/ngrok (copy an existing one from another developer)
-
Change the authkey at the top of the file to your ngrok auth token (find it here: https://ngrok.com/dashboard)
-
Change hostname to your reserved domain [yourname].lavaina.com, i.e hostname: "ronen.lavaina.com"
-
Commit your new file to git and push it.
bin/vagrant-init-lavaina-dev-env.sh <developer name>
# i.e. bin/vagrant-init-lavaina-dev-env.sh ronen
At the end of this script a `lavaina-dev-env' vm snapshot will be created.
Now, you can just:
vagrant ssh
- To start ngrok, run:
ngrok start meteor
This will tunnel traffic from [yourname].lavaina.com to your meteor app running on vagrant on port 3000.
You will also be able to introspect the http traffic that ngrok tunnels at your windows machine, at: http://localhost:4040
Enjoy!!!
