chmod u+x ynh-dev
```

## Host usage

The `ynh-dev` tool provides 2 usefull command to run into your host machine. One
create a development environment by cloning Git repositories, the other one is a
helper to run a Vagrant virtual machine in the right place.

### Create the environment

    ynh-dev create-env /path/to/dev/env


### Run a container

    cd /path/to/dev/env
    ynh-dev run ynh.local testing

You'll be automatically logged in the VM through ssh.

You probably wan't to run the postinstall now:

    (sudo) yunohost tools postinstall


## Inside the Virtual machine (VM)

Once logged into your VM, go to `/vagrant` to enjoy folder sharing, and take
advantages of the `ynh-dev` script.

###  Upgrade the container

It will update every debian packages.

    /vagrant/ynh-dev upgrade

###  Use Git repositories

When doing `create-env` command, every YunoHost package have been cloned in the
corresponding path. Use these Git repositories inside the VM (with symlink).
Your changes will be available immediatly in your VM.

    /vagrant/ynh-dev use-git

***Note***: These changes can be reverted now.

Alternatively you can use Git only for one packages (ssowat, yunohost,
moulinette, yunohost-admin)

    /vagrant/ynh-dev use-git PACKAGE_NAME


###  Deploy your change

    /vagrant/ynh-dev deploy

### Deploy your change in realtime (each time you saved source code)

    /vagrant/ynh-dev watch

### Get ip address of your vm

    /vagrant/ynh-dev ip
