README

This application stops developers having to navigate to each project and check the Vagrant instance is down before starting their new Vagrant instance.

When configured within a VagrantFile of every project using Vagrant this application will shutdown all Vagrant instances before starting the current instance.

Please note that this isn't a plugin for Vagrant.

Installation

Ensure you have downloaded and installed Vagrant 1.2+ from the Vagrant downloads page.

Tagrant Transient is designed to work with the vagrant-triggers plugin.

Installation is performed in the prescribed manner for Vagrant plugins:

    vagrant plugin install vagrant-triggers

Once this is installed Vagrant Transient can be done a couple of ways:

1. by downloading the vagrant_transient.phar file and adding it into /usr/bin
2. Add "pegasuscommerce/vagrant_transient" to composer using the current version

Once this has been done environments in Vagrant Transient are automatically created, destroyed and shutdown in Vagrant

Using Vagrant Transient

Note that Vagrant Transient will manage an instance once 'vagrant up' has been called or '{vagrant_transient} create' has been called from a directory with a Vagrantfile in it. Only then will an environment be managed by Vagrant Transient.

Once installed you can use it to manage Vagrant instances through Vagrant or just via the terminal using the vagrant_transient.phar, bin/vagrant_transient to create, destroy etc.

###Adding the triggers to Vagrant ####Composer method Open your Vagrantfile and add the following:

    
    config.trigger.before :up do
       run "bin/vagranttransient dc"
    end

    config.trigger.after :destroy do
       run "bin/vagranttransient destroy"
    end

####vagrant_transient.phar method

    config.trigger.before :up do
       run "vagrant_transient.phar dc"
    end

    config.trigger.after :destroy do
       run "vagrant_transient.phar destroy"
    end

This will call 'vagrant_transient.phar dc' when 'vagrant up' is called and 'vagrant_transient.phar destroy' when 'vagrant destroy' is called. Creating and destroying vagrant-transient environments automatically.
