Vagrantfile generator

Vagrantgen

Vagrantgen is a simply CLI to generate Vagrantfiles from a standard YAML.

This is a YAML example:

- projectname: cluster1
  provider: virtualbox
  vms:
  - name: vm01
    box: rockylinux/8
    mem: 1024
    cpu: 2

And this the Vagrantfile generated:

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
    config.vm.synced_folder ".", "/vagrant", disabled: true

    config.vm.define "cluster1vm01" do |node|
        node.vm.hostname = "cluster1vm01"
        node.vm.box = "rockylinux/8"
        node.vm.provider "virtualbox" do |provider|
            provider.memory = "1024"
            provider.cpus = "2"
        end
    end
end

How use the CLI

If you run vagrantgen -h, then you find the help menu:
