During provision, how do you change to "vagrant" user?

[Gerry Kaplan]

During provisioning with a shell script, is it possible to change to the "vagrant" user and execute commands?

My goal is this:

1. Install various server components (i.e. git, nodejs, etc.)

2. switch to the vagrant user

3. Install nvm from this curl script: curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.20.0/install.sh | bash

When I run step #3 from a shell script, it does it as "root" and not "vagrant". How can I switch to the vagrant user, then execute the curl command?

Hello, by default shell provisioner will run a s prvileded user, and will do sudo to run

this can overrriden with:

 config.vm.provision "shell", path: privileged false

privileged (boolean) - Specifies whether to execute the shell script as a privileged user or not (sudo). By default this is "true". This has no effect for Windows guests
