vampd is a fork of the open source project drupal-lamp. We are looking to use the project as a base for awesomeness to come.
vampd looks to become a one stop solution for local development and deployment strategy helping to standardize processes and dev flow without constricting the environments or needs of the developer. Our vision is to increase productivity by providing a stable, reproducible, virtualized environments that include meet all your drupal needs.
The install of vampd is not the easiest thing, but if you are familiar with the command line, should be fairly simple.
First thing is first, you will need to install vagrant and install virtualbox. If you are on a Mac you will also need to install X-code from the App store (for Git).
Now open your terminal of choice.
The following commands are recommended and will help us trouble shoot if future issues arise.
cd ~
mkdir vagrant
cd vagrant
git clone https://github.com/vampd/vampd.git
cd vampd
vagrant plugin install vagrant-berkshelf --plugin-version '2.0.1'
vagrant plugin install vagrant-omnibus
vagrant up
Now, you will see a bunch of text run and automate. During this time we recommend you edit your /etc/hosts file to add the proper site name and ip address so the site will resolve.
To do this open a new tab in the terminal:
sudo nano /etc/hosts
By default the IP address found in the Vagrantfile is 192.168.50.5 So add this line to the file below all other lines.
example.local 192.168.50.5
Now go back to your original terminal tab. If the process has finished, visit http://example.local and check it out, a fresh Drupal install.
And voila, you have a site installed!
##Now let's have some fun.
For those who don't know, vampd isn't about just spinning up a site and dumping a database to share across a team, actually it is quite against that. We aim to create reproducible environments and code from every aspect. The server should match what you are going live on, and your site should be able to deploy into production with a simple install, or if you have a live site, updates should be applied via update hooks, check out our desire for a standard dev process in the wiki
