Dockerfile with Vagrant QEMU and VirtualBox

This repository provides Dockerfile which can run Vagrant (including vagrant-libvirt and vagrant-winrm plugins) to start / manipulate VM images.

The docker image is primary created for testing Vagrant images built from Packer Templates located in this repository https://github.com/ruzickap/packer-templates.

Installation steps

To use this Docker image you need to install VirtualBox and Docker to your OS (Fedora / Ubuntu). This may work on other operating systems too, but I didn't have a chance to test it.

Ubuntu installation steps (Docker + VirtualBox)

sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y --no-install-recommends docker.io jq libvirt-bin virtualbox wget
sudo gpasswd -a ${USER} docker
# This is mandatory for Ubuntu otherwise docker container will not have access to /dev/kvm - this is default in Fedora (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=993491)
sudo bash -c "echo 'KERNEL==\"kvm\", GROUP=\"kvm\", MODE=\"0666\"' > /etc/udev/rules.d/60-qemu-system-common.rules"
sudo sed -i 's/^unix_sock_/#&/' /etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf
sudo reboot

Fedora installation steps (Docker + VirtualBox)

sudo sed -i 's@^SELINUX=enforcing@SELINUX=disabled@' /etc/selinux/config
sudo dnf upgrade -y
# Reboot if necessary (especially if you upgrade the kernel or related packages)

sudo dnf install -y http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm
sudo dnf install -y akmod-VirtualBox curl docker git jq kernel-devel-$(uname -r) libvirt-daemon-kvm wget
sudo akmods

sudo bash -c 'echo "vboxdrv" > /etc/modules-load.d/vboxdrv.conf'
sudo usermod -a -G libvirt ${USER}
sudo groupadd docker && sudo gpasswd -a ${USER} docker
sudo systemctl enable docker

sudo reboot

Test box image created from Packer templates

Real example how to use the Docker image to test box image produced by Packer for libvirt/qemu.

BOXES="windows-10-enterprise-x64-eval ubuntu-18.04-server-amd64"

mkdir vagrant_box
cd vagrant_box

for BOX in $BOXES; do
  CURRENT_VERSION=$(curl -s https://app.vagrantup.com/api/v1/box/peru/$BOX | jq -r ".current_version.version")
  wget -c https://app.vagrantup.com/peru/boxes/$BOX/versions/$CURRENT_VERSION/providers/libvirt.box -O ${BOX}-libvirt.box
  wget -c https://app.vagrantup.com/peru/boxes/$BOX/versions/$CURRENT_VERSION/providers/virtualbox.box -O ${BOX}-virtualbox.box
done
