Add instructions for running it in vagrant, set up the port redirect #11

There might be one minor issue with the path on the VM to resolve. "/home/vagrant/templates/index.html "rather than "/home/vagrant/kb_builder/templates/index.html". However, it might be a PEBKAC and I'm just running things incorrectly. Perhaps you can try this out and let me know.

Merged. I will test this on the train tonight on my way home and we'll go from there. :) Thanks again...

tylert commented 8 years ago

If you're going to be on the train, make sure you pre-download things.

Oh, yes, the instructions must be change to explicitly be "cd kb_builder ; sudo ./kb_builder.py". Things don't work correctly when running it from somewhere else.

I have tested everything at this point and I love what you have done. Very well implemented and it works great. Good Job. :+1:

I have reworked the readme to make the vagrant instruction the default as I expect most people who are interested in this tool will be using it locally to hack together their own ideas.

Thanks again for all the hard work.

Glad to help out with a great tool (instead of working on my keyboards).

When you are ready to tackle making a Vagrantfile for the Go version of the tool, have a look at the one I fixed in Packer (https://github.com/mitchellh/packer/blob/master/Vagrantfile)
