Support for vmware_desktop provider #60

Open gep13 opened 4 years ago

gep13 commented 4 years ago

As per the readme (https://github.com/jedi4ever/sahara#supported-providers) my understanding is that the Sahara plugin support VMWare Fusion provider.

I have just installed the newer VMWare Desktop plugin and when I try to use the sahara plugin, I get:

Are there any plans around adding support for this?

Thanks

Vagrant 1.8+ has a functionality to take snapshots and restore them. Could you please try the built-in function? See more detail at https://www.vagrantup.com/docs/cli/snapshot.html

@ryuzee I can confirm that does indeed seem to work.

One of the things that I like about the sahara plugin is that is doesn't do a provision of the VM when being rolled back. With the built in commands, this can be done, but it requires an extra switch, i.e.

vagrant snapshot pop --no-provision
