Drupal VM Changelog

4.6.0 "Water, Music, and Tronaction" (2017-06-28)

Breaking Changes

If you have varnish in your installed_extras, then the newest version of the Varnish role included in this release changes the Varnish package repository (on all OSes) to use the latest supported Varnish packages from Varnish's official packagecloud.io repos. This allows you to specify Varnish versions anywhere from the latest (currently 5.1) to early 2.x versions (and everything in-between)... but you might either have to uninstall Varnish before updating existing VMs, or just rebuild your VM to take advantage of the latest role version.

New/changed variables in default.config.yml

vagrant_box still defaults to Ubuntu 16.04, but you can now use Debian 9 ('Stretch') if you set the variable to geerlingguy/debian9.
vagrant_plugins was added (see #1378), and contains a list of Vagrant plugins that—if not already installed—will be installed for use by Vagrant.

#1451: Use 192.168.89.89 for default Docker Drupal VM IP.

3.1.0 "Love Theme" (2016-06-06)

New variables in default.config.yml

local_path: . - the default Vagrant synced folder local_path is set to the Drupal VM directory. This way multiple copies of Drupal VM can have independent Drupal codebases by default.
build_makefile: false - Drupal VM now defaults to a composer-based workflow. To keep using a makefile, set this true and set all the build_composer* variables to false.
build_composer, drupal_composer_*, build_composer_project, drupal_composer_project_* - New variables to support composer.json or composer create-project site builds.
extra_parameters added to the default Apache vhost definition for the Drupal VM dashboard (to support displaying PHP information on the dashboard).
hirak/prestissimo added to composer_global_packages (to speed up Composer operations inside the VM).
solr_version: "5.5.1" - New default version of Apache Solr, if solr is in installed_extras.
configure_local_drush_aliases has been changed to configure_drush_aliases (there is a shim to allow the use of the old variable name).

Improvements

#648: Make config.yml optional (always load default configuration).
#693: Default to Apache Solr 5.x.
#687: Default the synced folder to the Drupal VM directory.
#688: Add docs on how to run custom Ansible playbooks using a local Vagrantfile.
#694, #701: Add support for, and default to, Composer-based Drupal 8 site builds.
#698: Add docs about vagrant-bindfs to help those with NFS permissions issues.
#703: Include default vagrant-cachier configuration, with an :apt bucket and a :generic bucket for Composer.
#705: Add Packagist project badge.
#706: Updated docs for 3.1.0 and default Composer workflow.

Bugfixes

#654: Remove ansible.cfg because role install is handled by Vagrant.
#653: Update docs for PHP 5.6 and apcu.
#663: Change configure_local_drush_aliases to configure_drush_aliases so it's purpose is clearer.
#678: Clarify requirement of Ansible on host for host Drush alias setup.

3.0.0 "The Light Sailer" (2016-05-19)

Read the Drupal VM 3 announcement blog post.

Breaking changes

Some new defaults (e.g. PHP 7 or upgrading to Ubuntu 16.04) require a full box rebuild (vagrant destroy and vagrant up)
Requirements: Vagrant 1.8.1+, VirtualBox 5.0.20+, and (if using Ansible installed locally) Ansible 2.0.1+.

New variables in config.yml

vagrant_box now defaults to geerlingguy/ubuntu1604 (was geerlingguy/ubuntu1404)
drush_makefile_path is now "{{ config_dir }}/drupal.make.yml" (to support Drupal VM in a subdirectory)
memcached, xdebug, and xhprof are now commented from installed_extras by default
extra_packages now includes sqlite by default
php_version is now "7.0"

Improvements

#608: Automate ansible-galaxy role installation (requires Vagrant 1.8+).
#609: Default to Ubuntu 16.04, PHP 7, and MySQL 5.7.
#616: Update Travis CI automated tests to test on Ubuntu 16.04 in addition to other OSes.
#618: Use latest stable Drupal 8 release instead of working-copy (git clone) by default.
#633: Support custom pre/post provision Ansible task files.
#378: Decouple Drupal VM from it's existing directory so it can be managed in other directories.
#378: Add a composer.json (Drupal VM is on Packagist!)
#526: Added Blackfire.io support (PHP 7 or 5.x).

Bugfixes

#614: Install cron jobs as the SSH user instead of as root.
