Vagrant plugins are esentially RubyGems and most of the RubyGems guidelines apply to them. This guide discusses only specifics in which Vagrant plugins differ.
Ruby Compatibility
Each Vagrant plugin package must indicate it depends on a Ruby interpreter. Use ruby(release) virtual requirement to achieve that:
Requires: ruby(release)
If the package requires Ruby of certain version(s), make the requirement versioned like this:
Requires: ruby(release) >= 1.9.1
Naming Guidelines
- Plugins should follow upstream name that usually starts with
vagrant-.
Macros
Vagrant plugins must be installed to certain standard locations. The vagrant package contains usuful macros that should be used to achieve that.
