Include config option within ssh_config command output template. Default
remote_user value to set username value. Include existence check on
provided config value to ensure file is available. Update tests to
include coverage on all changes. Add new options to the docs.
Also noticed whilst testing that if the `ProxyCommand` uses `%r`, then
it fails with `unable to find remote user`, so added support for
`config.ssh.remote_user` aswell
As of `net-ssh` version 4.2.0, the key :paranoid has been deprecated in
favor of using :verify_host_key. This commit updates Vagrants ssh config
to use the new key, and deprecates the use of :paranoid.
Prior to this commit, if the ssh-config command was invoked within
cygwin or msys2, it would show a regular windows style path for private
keys rather than a path that could be used within msys2 or cygwin. This
commit updates that behavior by converting all of the private key paths
to the proper msys2 or cygwin path if the platform is windows and the
command was invoked from one of those two shells.
This branch brings in the "machine abstraction" code. This is a major
milestone in the development of Vagrant as it abstracts all of the
VirtualBox-specific code out into a plugin. There is zero VirtualBox
specific code in the core ("lib/") directory at this point. Read on for
important points.
== Gotchas
White it is technically possible now to write plugins for other
providers, there is still major work to be done to make this feasible.
The plugin interface itself is pretty much done, but there are some
issues:
* ":virtualbox" is the hardcoded provider to be used at the moment.
* There is no way to configure a provider. For example,
`config.vm.customize` would never work for anything other than
VirtualBox, so there needs to be a way to have provider-specific
configuration. This will come soon.
* Shared folders and networking need to be rearchitected to be friendly
for multiple providers, since it is unrealistic that a provider such as
EC2 could provide the same level of networking, for example.
* There is no way easy way (like `vagrant package --base`) to create
boxes for providers other than VirtualBox. This will be addressed in a
whole new feature of Vagrant probably in a future release after
provider stuff has shipped.
== Writing a Provider
To write a provider, you create a Vagrant plugin that defines a
"provider". See the "plugins/providers/virtualbox/plugin.rb" for more
details. Providers themselves have an exremely simple API. The burden
for writing providers mostly rests on the fact that you must define
complex middleware sequences.
Lots more work to come in the future, but this is a BIG MILESTONE!
