The mount id is a file path which will contain forward slashes. A previous attempt (although notably missing in the Linux host plugin) at fixing this used `String.gsub` to escape the forward slashes; however, the solution that eventually made its way into the 1.5 release uses `Regexp.escape` which doesn't escape forward slashes. The Ruby `Regexp.escape` method does not escape forward slashes because they are not RE meta-characters; their special meaning is specific to sed expressions as delimiters. To avoid the issue entirely, we can use an alternative delimiter by prefixing the address expression with a backslash with the desired delimiter character following. Use control character (ASCII code point `0x01`) as expression delimiter so it is very unlikely an identifier will have a conflicting character within it. |

Vagrant is a tool for building and distributing development environments.
Vagrant provides the framework and configuration format to create and manage complete portable development environments. These development environments can live on your computer or in the cloud, and are portable between Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux.
Quick Start
First, make sure your development machine has VirtualBox
installed. After this, download and install the appropriate Vagrant package for your OS. If you're not on Mac OS X or Windows, you'll need
to add /opt/vagrant/bin
to your PATH
. After this, you're ready to go!
To build your first virtual environment:
vagrant init hashicorp/precise32
vagrant up
Note: The above vagrant up
command will also trigger Vagrant to download the
precise32
box via the specified URL. Vagrant only does this if it detects that
the box doesn't already exist on your system.
Getting Started Guide
To learn how to build a fully functional development environment, follow the getting started guide.
Installing the Gem from Git
If you want the bleeding edge version of Vagrant, we try to keep master pretty stable and you're welcome to give it a shot. The following is an example showing how to do this:
rake install
Ruby 2.0 is needed.

Dependencies and Unit Tests
To hack on vagrant, you'll need bundler which can
be installed with a simple gem install bundler
. Afterwords, do the following:
bundle install
rake
This will run the unit test suite, which should come back all green! Then you're good to go!
If you want to run Vagrant without having to install the gem, you may use bundle exec
,
like so:
bundle exec vagrant help
NOTE: By default running Vagrant in via bundle
will disable plugins.
This is necessary because Vagrant creates its own private Bundler context
(it does not respect your Gemfile), because it uses Bundler to manage plugin
dependencies.
Acceptance Tests
Vagrant also comes with an acceptance test suite that does black-box tests of various Vagrant components. Note that these tests are extremely slow because actual VMs are spun up and down. The full test suite can take hours. Instead, try to run focused component tests.
To run the acceptance test suite, first copy vagrant-spec.config.example.rb
to vagrant-spec.config.rb
and modify it to valid values. The places you
should fill in are clearly marked.
Next, see the components that can be tested:
$ rake acceptance:components
cli
provider/virtualbox/basic
...
Then, run one of those components:
$ rake acceptance:run COMPONENTS="cli"
...
