How to template Vagrantfile using Ruby? - ruby

Question

I have several Vagrantfile, each one for a different provider, since Vagrant has a limitation that doesn't allow to make two or more provisions at the same time using the same Vagrantfile.
So, I split into two or more Vagrantfiles, but my "body", my provisions scripts are the same for both, the only thing that changes is the provider block.
For example:
local_nagios/Vagrantfile
# -*- mode: ruby -*-
# vi: set ft=ruby :
require 'yaml'
set = YAML.load_file '../../../settings.yaml'
Vagrant.configure(2) do |nagios|
nagios.vm.provider :virtualbox do |provider, override|
override.vm.box = 'ubuntu/trusty64'
override.vm.hostname = 'nagios.company.com'
override.vm.synced_folder '.', '/vagrant', disabled:true
override.vm.network 'public_network', bridge:set['network_interface'], ip:set['dev_nagios_ip']
provider.memory = 4096
provider.cpus = 2
end
install = set['devops_home'] + '/vagrant/lib/install'
nagios.vm.provision 'shell', path: install + '/basic'
nagios.vm.provision 'shell', path: install + '/devops'
step = set['devops_home'] + '/vagrant/server/nagios/steps'
nagios.vm.provision 'shell', path: step + '/install', args: [set['nagios_password']]
end
digital_nagios/Vagrantfile
# -*- mode: ruby -*-
# vi: set ft=ruby :
require 'yaml'
set = YAML.load_file '../../../settings.yaml'
Vagrant.configure(2) do |nagios|
nagios.vm.provider :digital_ocean do |provider, override|
override.vm.box = 'digital_ocean'
override.vm.hostname = 'nagios.company.com'
override.vm.synced_folder '.', '/vagrant', disabled:true
override.ssh.private_key_path = '~/.ssh/id_rsa'
provider.token = 'my-token'
provider.image = 'ubuntu-14-04-x64'
provider.region = 'fra1'
provider.size = '4gb'
end
install = set['devops_home'] + '/vagrant/lib/install'
nagios.vm.provision 'shell', path: install + '/basic'
nagios.vm.provision 'shell', path: install + '/devops'
step = set['devops_home'] + '/vagrant/server/nagios/steps'
nagios.vm.provision 'shell', path: step + '/install', args: [set['nagios_password']]
end
I wonder if is possible to make a template from this. Or import my common area like this:
Vagrant.configure(2) do |nagios|
nagios.vm.provider :digital_ocean do |provider, override|
...
end
import '../provision.rb'
end
I'm not familiar with Ruby, so any suggestion would be very appreciated!

Answer 1

you can do something like
Vagrant.configure(2) do |nagios|
nagios.vm.provider :digital_ocean do |provider, override|
...
end
eval File.read("../Vagrantfile-common")
end
