Install docker in vagrant

Question

I am trying to install docker in a vagrant box, I followed the steps on the docker website

But when I run vagrant up in the docker/ directory that is downloaded through git I get this error message.

"There is a syntax error in the following Vagrantfile. The syntax error message is reproduced below for convenience:

/docker/Vagrantfile:146: syntax error, unexpected ':', expecting kEND
    override.vm.synced_folder ".", "/vagrant", disabled: true"

How do I resolve this so that I can connect into the vagrant box, I get the same message is I run the command "vagrant ssh"

In the last version of vagrant ,the docker provisioner can support docker now. Try it: http://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/provisioning/docker.html

Looks like you use an old version of Vagrant. Try to upgrade. This can help.

This example vagrant file will install Docker version 1.3.2 for you. You can leave d.version out if you don't care what version of Docker gets downloaded.

VAGRANTFILE_API_VERSION = "2"

Vagrant.configure(VAGRANTFILE_API_VERSION) do |config|
  config.vm.box = "hashicorp/precise64"

  config.vm.provision "docker" do |d|
      d.version = "1.3.2"
  end 
end

I built a very basic vagrantfile that sets up ubuntu with docker installed.

I use it occasionally for testing docker

My experience:

I was behind a proxy so I had to configure it in vagrant. First I install the plugin to set the proxy:

vagrant plugin install vagrant-proxyconf

Then I completed the example above:

VAGRANTFILE_API_VERSION = "2"

Vagrant.configure(VAGRANTFILE_API_VERSION) do |config|
  config.vm.box = "hashicorp/precise64"
  config.yum_proxy.http = "http://proxy.internal.lcl:8080/"
  config.proxy.http     = "http://proxy.internal.lcl:8080/"
  config.proxy.https    = "http://proxy.internal.lcl:8080/"
  config.proxy.no_proxy = "localhost,127.0.0.1"  
  config.vm.provision "docker" do |d|
      d.version = "latest"
  end 
end

Finally I had to bypass the proxy somehow for docker with this shell command:

export NO_PROXY="/var/run/docker.sock"

Result:

root@precise64:~# docker version
Client version: 1.5.0
Client API version: 1.17
Go version (client): go1.4.1
Git commit (client): a8a31ef
OS/Arch (client): linux/amd64
Server version: 1.5.0
Server API version: 1.17
Go version (server): go1.4.1
Git commit (server): a8a31ef

Hope it helps.
