About

A simple Vagrant environment for the latest version of Request Tracker.

Usage

Installed Vagrant with a suitable hypervisor is required. To run:

# Start

# Provision (via bash scripts)
vagrant provision

# With parallels
vagrant up --provider=parallels

# On the machine
$ sudo start-rt

Access http://192.168.56.10 in your browser.

Providers

This environment is configured for Parallels, VMWare and VirtualBox.

Features

  • Newest RT (default admin credentials: root:password)
  • Standalone Plack Server
  • SQLite database
  • Dev- and build enviroinment included
  • Base box is ubuntu 16.04
  • Modules via CPAN installed

Configuration

The default configuration is installed into /vagrant/vendor/rt/etc/RT_SiteConfig.pm.

If you need your own local configuration file for e.g. extensions and other development tests, copy provision/rt/RT_SiteConfig.pm to work/RT_SiteConfig.pm and provision the Vagrant box. The work directory is ignored by the git tree.

cp provision/rt/RT_SiteConfig.pm work/RT_SiteConfig.pm

vim work/RT_SiteConfig.pm

vagrant provision

vagrant ssh

sudo start-rt

The configuration file is located in /vagrant/vendor/rt/etc/RT_SiteConfig.d inside the Vagrant box and overrides the default /vagrant/vendor/rt/etc/RT_SiteConfig.pm file.

Extensions

Either use Vagrantfile.local to set specific synced folders, or copy extensions into the work directory.

Extensions need to create a Makefile in order being installed. This requires a specific RT install location in /vagrant/vendor/rt. Set the RTHOME environment variable in order to avoid questions by the perl Makefile.PL call.

cd /vagrant/work/rt-extension-ticketactions

perl Makefile.PL

make
make install

Database

sqlite3 /vagrant/vendor/rt/var/rt4
