vagrant add box with version number

As we all know, vagrant add box when download from the external network, that speed ... (tears all that much), so had to use the download tool to download and add to the local then.

How to build Homestead : https://laravelacademy.org/post/19428.html

 

General treatment options:

vagrant box add boxName ./downloadBoxName.box

box name after adding boxName

./downloadBoxName.box downloaded to the local box

Normal so basically you can add up the box. However, box version number of this addition is 0, affecting most of the version number of the scene is not great. But when I use Laravel Homestead, the version here, there will be some other restrictions. So, if we can add the version number is not it would be better yet.

 

Add program with a version number (recommended) :

Create a file metadata.json
 { 
    "name": "Laravel / Homestead", 
    "versions": [{ 
        "Version": "8.0.0", 
        "Providers": [{ 
            "name": "VirtualBox", 
            "url" : "File: // D: /homestead.box" 
        }] 
    }] 
} 

and then execute the following command

 vagrant box add metadata.json

 

Description:

• nameAdd the name of the box
• version:version number
• providers.name: Web Hosting Types
• providers.url: Box address

 

For laravel / homestead you can also modify the configuration files in the homestead:

git clone https://github.com/laravel/homestead.git Homestead

Modify Homestead / script / homestead.rb file, probably like 21 rows, modify the corresponding bit version> = 0 to

config.vm.box_version = settings['version'] ||= '>= 8.0.0'
