The **LibreTime Vagrant install** is the fastet way to get LibreTime up and running in a way
to hack on its source code or to test it locally. There are two supported providers: libvirt
and VirtualBox.
## Prerequisites
* [Git](https://git-scm.com/)
* [Vagrant](https://vagrantup.com)
### Virtual Box
You will need to install [VirtualBox](https://www.virtualbox.org) and may want to consider
installing [vagrant-vbguest](https://github.com/dotless-de/vagrant-vbguest) to update the
guest extensions to match your host system on vagrant up.
```bash
vagrant plugin install vagrant-vbguest
```
### Libvirt
Setting the libvirt provider up on (Ubuntu and Debian)[#Ubuntu and Debian] is straight
forward, using the distribution provided packages. While on
(Other Distributions)[#Other Distributions] it can be built from within vagrant.
If you try run a libvirt provided box after using a VirtualBox one, you will receive an
error:
```
Error while activating network:
Call to virNetworkCreate failed: internal error: Network is already in use by interface vboxnet0.
```
This is fixed by stopping virtualbox and re-creating the vagrant box:
```
sudo systemctl stop virtualbox
vagrant destroy ubuntu-xenial
vagrant up ubuntu-xenial --provider=libvirt
```
#### Debian and Ubuntu
```bash
sudo apt install vagrant vagrant-libvirt libvirt-daemon-system vagrant-mutate libvirt-dev
sudo usermod -a -G libvirt $USER
# Reboot
vagrant box add bento/ubuntu-16.04 --provider=virtualbox
vagrant mutate bento/ubuntu-16.04 libvirt
vagrant up ubuntu-xenial --provider=libvirt
```
#### Other Distributions
You will need to install [libvirt](https://libvirt.org/) and `vagrant-mutate` and then run
```bash
vagrant plugin install vagrant-libvirt
sudo usermod -a -G libvirt $USER
# Reboot
vagrant plugin install vagrant-mutate
vagrant box fetch bento/ubuntu-16.04
vagrant mutate bento/ubuntu-16.04 libvirt
vagrant up ubuntu-xenial --provider=libvirt
```
## Starting LibreTime Vagrant
To get started you clone the repo and run `vagrant up`. The command accepts a parameter to
change the default provider if you have multiple installed. This can be done by appending
`--provider=virtualbox` or `--provider=libvirt` as applicable.
```bash
git clone https://github.com/libretime/libretime.git
cd libretime
vagrant up ubuntu-xenial
```
If everything works out, you will find LibreTime on [port 8080](http://localhost:8080),
icecast on [port 8000](http://localhost:8000) and the docs on
[port 8888](http://localhost:8888).
Once you reach the web setup GUI you can click through it using the default values. To
connect to the vagrant machine you can run `vagrant ssh ubuntu-xenial` in the libretime
directory.
## Alternative OS installations
With the above instructions LibreTime is installed on Ubuntu Xenial Xerus. The Vagrant setup
offers the option to choose a different operation system according to you needs.
| OS | Command | Comment |
| ------ | ------------------- | ------- |
| Debian 10 | `vagrant up debian-buster` | Install on Debian Buster. |
| Debian 9 | `vagrant up debian-stretch` | Install on current Debian Stretch. Needs manual intervention due to Liquidsoap 1.3.3. |
| Ubuntu 18.04 | `vagrant up ubuntu-bionic` | Install on current Ubuntu Bionic Beaver. |
| Ubuntu 16.04 | `vagrant up ubuntu-xenial` | Install on Ubuntu Xenial Xerus. |
| CentOS | `vagrant up centos` | Extremely experimental install on 7.3 with native systemd support and activated SELinux. Needs manual intervention due to Liquidsoap 1.3.3. |
## Troubleshooting
If anything fails during the initial provisioning step you can try running `vagrant provision`
to re-run the installer.
If you only want to re-run parts of the installer, use `--provision-with $step`. The
supported steps are `prepare`, `install`, `install-mkdocs` and `start-mkdocs`.
