Automate virtual machine box packing? #3

Open michael-hahn opened 5 years ago

michael-hahn commented 5 years ago

Currently, we do not have the option to configure the machine on-the-fly. (Instead we assume that the virtual boxes provided by the users are already configured.) I think it is necessary to have the option to ask Xanthus to configure a virtual machine from a base box, package the configuration through Vagrant, and upload it to the VagrantCloud. The stage should be a special stage since it should only be executed once (before any iterations) and the package box then should be used for all the iterations. Commands to package a Vagrant virtual box and upload it to VagrantCloud can be referenced here.

We have that working minus the upload to vagrantcloud is that good enough?
