How to do it...

Let's set up the DrupalVM project by Jeff Geerling by following these steps:

1. Download the DrupalVM archive from https://github.com/geerlingguy/drupal-vm/archive/master.zip.
2. Extract the archive and place the project in the directory of your choice.
3. Copy example.drupal.make.yml to drupal.make.yml.
4. Copy default.config.yml to config.yml.

 

 

1. Edit config.yml and modify the local_path setting to be the directory where you've placed the DrupalVM project. This will be synchronized into the virtual machine:

vagrant_synced_folders: 
local_path: /path/to/drupalvm 
destination: /var/www 
type: nfs 
create: true 

1. Open a terminal and navigate to the directory where you have placed the
   DrupalVM project.
2. Enter the vagrant up command to tell Vagrant to build the virtual machine and begin the provisioning process.
3. While this process is ongoing, modify your host file to provide easy access to the development site. Add the 192.168.88.88 drupalvm.dev line to your host file.
4. Open your browser and access http://www.drupalvm.com/.
5. Log in to your Drupal site with the username admin and password admin.
