Getting Started

Clone Repo:

$ git clone https://github.com/qualiancy/qualiancy-devbox.git my-devbox

Initialize Local RVM:

$ cd my-devbox

RVM should detect local .rvmrc and initialize the gemset. You may need to confirm.

Start Build Cycle:

This project uses make.

$ make devbox BOX=my-devbox

This will download all veewee dependencies (such as isos) and begin the build build cycle. Upon completion and validation, the box will be added to vagrant as your BOX name. If you did not specify one qualiancy-devbox will be used.

Upgrading

Clean Previous Version

If you want to dispose or upgrade your devbox, you the make clean command. You will need to use the same BOX name that was used to create.

$ make clean BOX=my-devbox

Pull the Latest Version

$ git pull

Re-initialize the Gemset

$ cd ..
$ cd my-devbox
