Minutes

• What are some use cases for Vagrant images?
  • Sane environment for teaching & instruction
  • Documentation of what's involved in creating certain integrations
  • Rapidly provisioning dev environment.  Vagrant on laptops have been workable options where institutional resources are unreasonably constrained/restricted 
• Islandora creates a 'base' box.  Would it be useful to have one for Fedora, what would be in it?
  • Java 8, Maven, Karaf, Tomcat, Fuseki?, Solr?
  • How does one manage versions of all these?
    • Islandora has repo for building new boxes
    • There is a way for Vagrant to notify user when updates are available
• Should a base box be Debian/Ubuntu based?  
  • Amherst uses CentOS, but really it doesn't matter
  • When using Docker, the issue becomes irrelevant
• Phase I: Consensus for base box, basic image
  • Nick Ruest, Jared Whiklo, James R. Griffin III volunteer to contribute to this
  • Islandora makes a very simple base box, relying on configuration files and shell scripts rather than frameworks where possible
    • .. but when it comes to moving to production, value of adopting tools/frameworks like Ansible, Chef, Puppet, etc are making it more worthwhile to invest the effort
    • Redhat tooling strongly leverages Puppet
    • With Puppet, resolving intermodule dependencies has been strong.  Works particularly well in combination with 'acceptance testing' frameworks for spec-ing and launching VMs
• Phase II:  Pull in frameworks and management tools (e.g. Packer, Docker, Ansible, Chef, Puppet, etc)?
  • Does anybody have expertise in this area?
  • Maybe contact to Alicia Cozine et al.  They gave a presentation at HydraConnect, and may even have some publicly available images to work off of
• Welcome Nick Ruest to the team!
