To create the VM with a working Erlang-R16B02 environment and rebar use
vagrant up
and connect using
vagrant ssh
to the running virtual machine.
A shell opens which can be used as normal. The local folder is mounted under /vagrant and should contain checked out antidote and riak_test repositories.
To remove the virtual machine use the
vagrant destroy
command.
Riak has problems when the data of the nodes is on the Virtualbox shared file system. Copy the dev or rel folder into the VM to run the nodes. To solve this issue the sync-home.sh script copies the compiled files from $ANTIDOTE/rel and $ANTIDOTE/dev into a folder called antidote in the home-folder of the vagrant user. The scripts start-cluster.sh and start-single.sh can be used to start these copies.
