Vagrant::Scp

Copy files to a Vagrant guest via SCP.

Installation

You need to install the plugin, like so

vagrant plugin install vagrant-scp

Usage

If you have just a single Vagrant guest, you can copy files over like this:

vagrant scp <some_local_file_or_dir> <somewhere_on_the_vm>

If you have multiple VMs, you can specify it.

vagrant scp <some_local_file_or_dir> [vm_name]:<somewhere_on_the_vm>

Copying files out of the guest works in the same fashion

vagrant scp [vm_name]:<somewhere_on_the_vm> <some_local_file_or_dir>

If source is a directory it will be copied recursively.

Examples

If you have just one guest, you can copy files to it like this:

vagrant scp file_on_host.txt :file_on_vm.txt

And from the guest like this:

vagrant scp :file_on_vm.txt file_on_host.txt

Vagrant version

We require Vagrant v1.7 or newer. If you are running older version (check with vagrant --version), install recent version directly from vendor site.
