Start using docker
Here is an explanation of the architecture to be used in the training.
This is an academic setup; it is not intended to be a production environment.
Working repository
Attached is the work repository we will use during the course:
For the training sessions, computers will be needed, either laptops or desktops.
Previous installation for local development
We need to install these 3 applications on our machines:
Vagrant fetches virtual machines from remote repositories, so we advise disconnecting any VPN connections on your machine.
Setting up the environment
To download the repository, you need to download the code:
git clone https://git.agile611.com/Agile611/startusingdocker
cd startusingdocker
From the folder startusingdocker, use the following command to set up an Ubuntu 24.04 VM (from now on, the Box):
vagrant up
Then, to access the Box, connect via SSH using the following command:
vagrant ssh
Troubleshooting potential problems
Provisioning the Box
If you have problems provisioning the Box, you can download it directly from here depending on your architecture.
Then, you need to know the path of the Box and execute the following commands:
vagrant box add /The/Path/From/Your/Downloaded/box/bento-ubuntu-24-04.box --name bento/ubuntu-24.04
vagrant init bento/ubuntu-24.04
The init command creates a VagrantFile with your initial configuration. In the same folder where this Vagrantfile is located, please execute the following command:
vagrant up
Then, connect to the Box using the following command:
vagrant ssh
If you get a terminal from the Box, your environment is ready.
Common Networking Problems
If you have proxies or VPNs running on your machine, it is possible that Vagrant is not able to provision your environment. Please check your connectivity beforehand.
Virtualization with VirtualBox
It is important to ensure that you can virtualize with VirtualBox. If you cannot, you may need to enable VT-X in your machine's BIOS. Here is how to enable it in the BIOS:

- (Spanish) Habilitar la virtualizacion de hardware en BIOS UEFI en Intel VT-X y AMD SVM
Vagrant Installation Videos
Here are videos on how to install Vagrant on different platforms:
To run all this setup, you need to have Git, Vagrant, and VirtualBox installed on your machine.
