Using an empty host_folders entry in the configuration file causes Ansible to error (feature/ansible-roles branch only).

Example:

host_folders:
forwarded_ports:

Error:
fatal: [condement-testing-level-1]: FAILED! => {"msg": "dict2items requires a dictionary, got <type 'NoneType'> instead."}

Using remote desktop should avoid the Right Ctrl key not working. Also, developers are often accustomed to working over Remote Desktop connections so may be more comfortable with this.

Should be configurable through the software options

This is to help in determining the configuration used to build the VM. It may also be useful to know the last successful configuration.

When shutting down either through Vagrant for the reboot at the end of provisioning or when using the UI, the display goes black but the VM then hangs and will not respond.

Rather than having to always use the condement.yaml file in the Condement root, it would be great if the configuration file could be changed on a per-run basis.

Only happens when using Remote Desktop with the shared clipboard enabled. Disabling shared clipboard resolves the issue.

When building with provisioning only through vagrant up --provision or vagrant provision, host folders are being added to the `/etc/fstab file multiple times. This is causing multiple desktop icons for the drives and possibly system crashes within the VM.

For example, setting the VM CPU and memory to 50% of host system resources (VirtualBox recommended in UI).

This would allow easier sharing of configuration files as they would work on a variety of machines rather than having to be adjusted to host machine resources.

If we map a persistent folder to the VM, Ansible can download packages to this folder before install. This can then be persisted between rebuilds and remove the need to re-download packages (unless the package has been updated). This would remove a large bottleneck in the software install stage of the build.

Description

API REST client and testing suite.

Justification

Useful for any API development (such as Go microservices)

Implement ansible-lint to check style before and when submitting PRs

Describe the solution you'd like

Store timestamps of key build events:

• First Built
• Last Built Successfully
• Last Build Attempted

Additional context

Useful for knowing if a rebuild would help install latest security updates, etc.

This will likely prove difficult as Vagrant doesn't support resizing of disks but is vital as some projects will download large packages for development.

Permissions on the k3s file after the first run allow only root to use the file which causes an error in kubectl. The second Vagrant/Ansible run fixes the permissions.
