Vagrant Host Path

This plugin creates an environment variable (VAGRANT_HOST_PATH by default) with the path to the project's root dir on your host machine. You can just replace /vagrant prefix of any file in your VM with the value of VAGRANT_HOST_PATH and you'll get the path to that same file on the host.

Installation

If you're using Vagrant with ruby's gem:

$ gem install vagrant-host-path

Or if you installed it with an installer:

$ vagrant plugin install vagrant-host-path

Usage

$ vagrant up
[default] VM already created. Booting if it's not already running...
...
[default] Host Path set!
...
$ vagrant ssh  # or any other way you connect to the VM

And after that you can use the env var within your VM:

Welcome to Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (GNU/Linux 3.2.0-23-generic-pae i686)

Welcome to your Vagrant-built virtual machine.

vagrant@precise32:~$ echo $VAGRANT_HOST_PATH
C:/Users/MOZGIII/Desktop/vagrant-host-path/test

Configuration

Vagrant::Config.run do |config|

  # The environment key to set
  config.host_path.env_key = "VAGRANT_HOST_PATH"

  # Temp file to save path to
  config.host_path.path_file = "/tmp/.vagrant-host-path"

  # Profile script path
  config.host_path.profile_path = "/etc/profile.d/vagrant-host-path.sh"
end

Have in mind that both the files get overwritten on every VM start.
