Vagrant plugin for Xhyve

• sirn 10y ago
  Author here! Didn't expected to see the plugin being posted here. The plugin is still very incomplete, and I haven't been able to find any time to work on it. But feel free to ask me anything! There's also another implementation by different author: https://github.com/oldpatricka/vagrant-xhyve https://github.com/oldpatricka/vagrant-xhyve that use different approach and easier to install (vagrant plugin install vagrant-xhyve)

    Why aren't you/vagrant using libvirt?
    • sirn 10y ago
      Not sure about Vagrant, but I don't think libvirt has Xhyve support yet (and there's already vagrant-libvirt[1] available). I decided to make the plugin for Vagrant because it's something I'm familiar with. [1]: https://github.com/vagrant-libvirt/vagrant-libvirt https://github.com/vagrant-libvirt/vagrant-libvirt

      There is a vagrant libvirt plugin [https://github.com/vagrant-libvirt/vagrant-libvirt https://github.com/vagrant-libvirt/vagrant-libvirt], which makes for a nice interface to libvirt if you are used to vagrant. Personally I think it would be great if there were an alternate tool that could make use of vagrant's existing infrastructre (e.g: base box images on Atlas and config scripts) but which is closer to libvirt...

  Well done! Great work so far @sirn, thanks for your hard work :)

  This is really awesome. Looking forward to seeing progress on it. Ideally this could become the default provider for Vagrant on OS X in the future. I'm sure it'd be a million times better than VirtualBox.

  A Vagrant Plugin is the first think I've asked on HN when I've seen Xhyve here. Great stuff!

  Surely this is an "Xhyve plugin for Vagrant"?
