Vagrant Host Manager

vagrant-hostmanager is a Vagrant 1.1+ plugin that manages the /etc/hosts file on guest machines. Its goal is to enable resolution of multi-machine environments deployed with a cloud provider where IP addresses are not known in advance.

Status

The current implementation is a proof-of-concept supporting the larger objective of using Vagrant as a cloud management interface for development and production environments.

The plugin has been tested with Vagrant 1.1.4.

Installation

Install the plugin following the typical Vagrant 1.1 procedure:

vagrant plugin install vagrant-hostmanager

Usage

The plugin hooks into the vagrant up and vagrant destroy commands automatically updating the /etc/hosts file on each active machine that is using the same provider.

A machine's IP address is defined by either the static IP for a private network configuration or by the SSH host configuration.

A machine's host name is defined by config.vm.hostname. If this is not set, it falls back to the symbol defining the machine in the Vagrantfile.
