Vagrant Archiv - credativ®

Elephant Shed is now also available as a Vagrant box. This makes it very easy to test and evaluate the PostgreSQL^® appliance.

Vagrant is an open-source tool for creating portable virtual software environments. Using scripts, it can easily generate virtual machines with a software component installed for testing. Vagrant itself is only the manager; various backends such as VirtualBox or cloud providers can be used for the actual virtualization.

For the development of Elephant Shed, we have relied on Vagrant from the beginning. This box is now also available in the Vagrant Cloud.

To use this box, Vagrant and VirtualBox must be installed. The host operating system is irrelevant (Linux/macOS/Windows); the box runs Debian Stretch. The box is then automatically downloaded by Vagrant:

vagrant init credativ/elephant-shed
vagrant up

This creates a virtual machine running Elephant Shed in VirtualBox on your computer.

• Default user: admin
• Default password: admin
• The web interface listens on port 4433: https://localhost:4433
• PostgreSQL^® listens on port 55432: psql -h localhost -p 55432 -U admin
