Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/vagrant: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

APIs 7

Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.

Vagrant Cloud Ruby Client

An official Ruby library that wraps the Vagrant Cloud API, providing a convenient interface for managing boxes, versions, and providers programmatically.

Vagrant Plugin SDK

The Vagrant Plugin SDK enables developers to build plugins that extend Vagrant with custom commands, providers, provisioners, guests, and host capabilities using Go or Ruby.
