Getting configuration values inside Vagrantfile

[Joshua Kugler]

How does one get information from the config object in a Vagrant file. I see this assignment: c.vm.hostname="blah" but if I try to use #{c.vm.hostname} elsewhere in the Vagrant file (because I want to pass the host name to a shell script in a trigger), I get an exception:  "no implicit conversion of Object into String." Or I just get <Object:0x000000010127e780>.  What is the best way to get a string from that?  Would really like to extract information from the configuration object.

Somebody asked here, but no answer: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47778744/how-can-i-access-a-vagrant-config-object-as-a-string-variable-in-a-vagrantfile

Any ideas?

Hi there,

Can you please provide a minimal Vagrantfile that demonstrates the failure you are encountering?

Thanks!
