Drupal VM

Introduction

This article documents the progress on building a Drupal 8 VM for development purposes on thorin (128.111.101.138). We will be using Vagrant to install a Drupal 8 VM and using Ansible to provision the VM.

Purpose

The purpose of this page is to document progress of installing a Drupal VM using Vagrant and Ansible, emphasis on Drupal 8 installation with Composer as opposed to drush make, as well as looking into theming the installation. I have been following geerlingguy's drupal-vm guide:

Installation Procedures

• Refer to the Quick Start Guide.
