edX-platform - Installing fullstack edX using a pre-built Vagrant image
The edX team has been release the new Configuration, a project that help us to deploy and test edX easily, with code name brioche. I'll try this and see how easy and improved it is.
I will follow this wiki: https://github.com/edx/configuration/wiki?utm_content=buffer0f89a&utm_source=buffer&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=Buffer
My computer:
+ Xubuntu 12.04LTS x86 64bit
+ CPU Intel core i3
+ 4GB of RAM
1. Install requirements:
+ VirtualBox: 4.2.18 r88780
+ Vagrant 1.3.3

+ CPU Intel core i3
+ 4GB of RAM
1. Install requirements:
+ VirtualBox: 4.2.18 r88780
+ Vagrant 1.3.3
2. Download vagrant image (the image's size is about 2.7GB, so I decided to download it manually):
https://s3.amazonaws.com/edx-static/vagrant-images/20130930-brioche-fullstack.box
3. Run vagrant init:
# for the full edX stack (md5sum 6b26448fa92056d42f50d910c854a767) vagrant init edx 20130930-brioche-fullstack.box
4. Edit the created Vagrantfile, uncomment and modify these following lines:
config.vm.box_url = "20130930-brioche-fullstack.box"
...
config.vm.network :private_network, ip: "192.168.33.10"
5. Run vagrant up, and done. Now I can access the LMS and CMS by enter the 192.168.33.10 IP in my laptop's browser:
The fullstack image of edX eats a lot of memory:
I will test the XQueue service and Forums later.
In total, It only took me about 30 minutes (not included the download image time) to install a fullstack edx image. So awesome!!!! \m/\m/\m/
