This assumes you’ve already installed Virtualbox and configured a base VM.<\/p>\n

Insert the following lines before the last line “end”, like so:<\/p>\n
\n config.vm.provision :chef_solo do |chef|\n     chef.cookbooks_path = \"..\/cookbooks\"\n     chef.add_recipe(\"apt\")\n     chef.add_recipe(\"couchdb\")\n end\n<\/pre>\n
Exit vi (:q) and run the following:<\/p>\n
\nvagrant up\n<\/pre>\n
After several minutes your virtual environment will be built. Once this is done, you can SSH into the machine (password is vagrant):<\/p>\n
\nssh vagrant@localhost -p 2222\n<\/pre>\n
Then see that the couchdb service is installed:<\/p>\n
\nls \/etc\/init.d\/couch*\n<\/pre>\n
The reason you need apt is to force “apt-update” prior to running the later commands. Erlang is a pre-requisite for couchdb, but Chef will just pick that up and install it. If you run into any errors, you may need to change or download the base box<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
