Adding pillar dir #17

Closed normanrz closed 8 years ago

I really like the Getting Started Guide. It's a lot of fun to learn Salt interactively.

In https://docs.saltstack.com/en/getstarted/config/pillar.html I got confused because the pillar directory was not synced to the master vm. Maybe this could be included in this demo repo?

Same here. The user has two options, the first one is adding the pillar directory to the Vagrant file after it has been created locally by the user, and then re-starting the VMs:

Vagrant.configure(VAGRANTFILE_API_VERSION) do |config|
  config.vm.define :master do |master_config|
    master_config.vm.box = "ubuntu/trusty64"
    master_config.vm.host_name = 'saltmaster.local'
    master_config.vm.network "private_network", ip: "192.168.50.10"
    master_config.vm.synced_folder "saltstack/salt/", "/srv/salt"
    master_config.vm.synced_folder "saltstack/pillar/", "/srv/pillar" # <- add this line
[snip]

Or, tell the user that the file has to be created on master with vim or whatever.

The pillar directory is now synced:

So I'm going to close this. Thanks for the input!
