How to find the Vagrant IP?

Question

I have been developing an automated deployment using Capistrano and using Vagrant as my test virtual server.

The thing is, I need the IP of Vagrant to \"ssh

Answer 1

Open a terminal, cd to the path of your Vagrantfile and write this

(Linux)

vagrant ssh -c "hostname -I | cut -d' ' -f2" 2>/dev/null

(OS X)

vagrant ssh -c "hostname -I | cut -d' ' -f2" 2>/dev/null | pbcopy

The command for Linux also works for windows. I have no way to test, sorry.

Answer 2

I've developed a small vagrant-address plugin for that. It's simple, cross-platform, cross-provider, and does not require scripting.

Answer 3

Because I haven't seen it here yet... When you vagrant ssh into the box, I realized it actually tells you the ip addresses of the interfaces. You can get it there. For example.

 {~/Documents/jupyterhub-ansible} (features *%)$  vagrant ssh

In my vagrant file I assigned the address like this:

config.vm.network "private_network", ip: "192.168.33.10"

and as you can see, IP address for enp0s8: 192.168.33.10

Answer 4

We are using VirtualBox as a provider and for the virtual box, you can use VBoxManage to get the IP address

VBoxManage guestproperty get <virtual-box-machine-name> /VirtualBox/GuestInfo/Net/1/V4/IP

Answer 5

I know this post is old but i want to add a few points to this!

you can try

vagrant ssh -c "ifconfig | grep inet" hostname 

this will be easy if you have setup a name to your guests individually!

Answer 6

Terminating a connection open with vagrant ssh will show the address, so a dummy or empty command can be executed:

$ vagrant ssh -c ''
Connection to 192.168.121.155 closed.
