Vagrant Triggers with $script

[Noah O'Donoghue]

Hi,

I'm trying to work out the syntax for using a multiline variable with Vagrant triggers.

Following the example here:

https://www.vagrantup.com/docs/provisioning/shell.html#inline-scripts

Looking at the example:

$script = <<-SCRIPT
echo I am provisioning...
date > /etc/vagrant_provisioned_at
SCRIPT

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
  config.vm.provision "shell", inline: $script
end

 This works great if I run

config.vm.provision "shell", inline: $script

but say I want to run it like this:

        trigger.run_remote = inline: $script

I get the error:
syntax error, unexpected ':', expecting keyword_end

EG:

  

    $script = <<-SCRIPT      
 

  echo I am provisioning...
  date > /etc/vagrant_provisioned_at

    SCRIPT

    machine.trigger.before :provision do |trigger|
        trigger.run_remote = inline: $script
    end

Anyone know the correct syntax for triggers?

Hey there!

You are missing brackets for the run_remote option. It is slightly different in that fact, but otherwise the options should be very close or the same. I recommend looking at the trigger documentation

https://www.vagrantup.com/docs/triggers/configuration.html#run_remote

The usage docs also have examples of how to use them

https://www.vagrantup.com/docs/triggers/usage.html

Thanks!

Thanks Brian!!

trigger.run_remote = {inline: $script} appears to work fine :)
