Using the SynapseML Vagrant Image

Install Vagrant and Dependencies

You'll need a few dependencies before we get started. These instructions are for using Vagrant on Windows OS.

1. Ensure Hyper-V is enabled or install VirtualBox
2. Install an X Server for Windows, VcXsrv is a lightweight option.
3. Install the Vagrant version for your OS here

Build the Vagrant Image

Start PowerShell as Administrator and go to the synapseml/tools/vagrant directory and run

vagrant up

Note: you may need to select a network switch, try the Default Switch option if possible

Connect to the Vagrant Image

First start the X-Window server (use 'XLaunch' if using VcXsrv).

From the same directory (with PowerShell as Administrator) run

$env:DISPLAY="localhost:0"
vagrant ssh -- -Y

# now you can start IntelliJ and interact with the GUI

Stop the Vagrant Image
