DuckPAN is an application built to provide developers a testing environment for DuckDuckHack Instant Answers. It allows you to test instant answer triggers and preview their visual design and output.
This project provides a Vagrant-based development setup for DuckPAN.

Run
bundle installto install Berkshelf. -
Then run
vagrant plugin install vagrant-berkshelf -
Review the CUSTOM_CONFIG settings at the top of Vagrant file. You will want to customize the value of the synced directory to point to your local directory containing the DuckDuckGo code you wish to test. By default, Vagrant will load a VirtualBox Precise64 machine image. If you change this, DuckDuckGo recommends Ubuntu (https://github.com/duckduckgo/p5-app-duckpan#disclaimer).

Run
vagrant up
The box takes some time to stand up. As the duckpan-install script runs, you won't see any output for a few minutes. On my 2.7 Ghz i7 Macbook Pro, it takes 18 minutes to complete. Refer to Troubleshooting for more info.
You can find the usage instructions for DuckPAN here: https://github.com/duckduckgo/p5-app-duckpan#using-duckpan
By default, after starting duckpan server you can access the web interface at http://0.0.0.0:5000
The Chef run may take a while to complete, and during this process, you may see no output from vagrant.
You can ssh into the box and run top to verify installation is still occurring. Look for either the chef-solo or perl processes.
vagrant ssh
top
