It will provision a development box for Joomla/hwdMediaShare with all requirements installed:

• Ubuntu 14.04
• Apache 2.4 + mod_h264 module
• PHP 5.5
• MySQL
• Multimedia conversion tools: ffmpeg, yamdi, qt-faststart,imagemagick,...
• adminer for easy MySQL management
• synced joomla folder

Getting started

1. Install Vagrant
2. Install VirtualBox
3. Install the Vagrant omnibus plugin
4. Clone this repo
5. vagrant up
6. Make yourself a cup of coffee
7. Profit!

After a successful run http://172.28.128.3 will show Joomla installation page.

Going further

While all the chef meat is on the original cookbook https://github.com/marpada/hwdmediashare-cookbook, the Vagrant file exposes the most important attributes:

• node['mysql']['server_root_password'] : MySQL root password
• node['hwdmediashare']['mysql']['joomla_db_name'] : Joomla DB name
• node['hwdmediashare']['mysql']['joomla_db_user'] : Joomla DB user
• node['hwdmediashare']['mysql']['joomla_db_password'] : Joomla DB
• node['hwdmediashare']['joomla_package_url'] : URL to Joomla tarball (.tar.gz)

Several chef community cookbooks are leveraged (apache,mysql,php) so feel free to override their attributes to your convenience.
