Init

Command: vagrant init [box-name] [box-url]

This initializes the current directory to be a Vagrant environment by creating an initial Vagrantfile if one doesn't already exist.

If a first argument is given, it will prepopulate the config.vm.box setting in the created Vagrantfile.

If a second argument is given, it will prepopulate the config.vm.box_url setting in the created Vagrantfile.

Options

• --force - If specified, this command will overwite any existing Vagrantfile.

• --minimal - If specified, a minimal Vagrantfile will be created. This Vagrantfile does not contain the instructional comments that the normal Vagrantfile contains.

• --output FILE - This will output the Vagrantfile to the given file. If this is "-", the Vagrantfile will be sent to stdout.
