hubot-vagrant

Complete bootstrap environment for testing out new Hubot modules

What?

This is a pre-configured Vagrant/Veewee/Puppet environment to setup a complete environment for development. IRC server is created, Hubot is downloaded and configured, and all of the firewalls are opened. Once up, connect your IRC client to:

irc://localhost:6667

Why?

Well, I didn't want to use Heroku. Also, since I planned on deploying this in the future to my infrastructure, I might as well have the recipes in place and whatnot to make this work properly.

Setup

Check out the git repository and all appropriate submodules

git clone https://github.com/fup/vagrant-hubot.git
git submodule init

Place all of your scripts in the 'scripts' directory

Build out your Veewee Profiles

  cd vagrant-hubot/vagrant
  vagrant buildbox build debian-squeeze-i386
  vagrant basebox export debian-squeeze-i386
  vagrant box add debian-squeeze-i386 debian-squeeze-i386.box

Startup Veewee

  cd vagrant-hubot/vagrant
  vagrant up hubot

Refreshing Scripts

Anytime that you have a script that should be reloaded, simply reprovision your vagrant server.

  cd vagrant-hubot/vagrant
  vagrant provision hubot

Notes

To change any of the variables on how hubot is configured, take a look at manfiests/site.pp for more details.

TODO

• Add Ubuntu support
• RHEL support?
