We did alot of stuff with Vagrant in the recent days, and there's a problem we encountered / didn't find any answer to. It's about checking the Status of the VirtualBox with Vagrant, for example:
if config.vmbox_status == 'running'
# do this stuff
end
If there is any easy way of checking / getting the current Virtual Box status let us know.

In the vagrant, site search for “ Ubuntu20 ” and set the Provider to Virtualbox as shown in the below image. Click the box from the site and you can get the box name to configure in the vagrant file. Now pass the box name as the argument with the vagrant init command which will automatically set the box name in the Vagrant file.
Before packaging your Virtual Machine, make sure you have an installed ssh. Check the presence of the Virtual Machine you want to package with ls command. Now package and export the Virtual machine. After the box has been packaged successfully, we should create a folder to house vagrant environment. Then import the box into your environment.
This will guide you on packaging existing environments to use with Vagrant, replacing the shared disk with a new box file. These box files can make managing virtual machines and different versions of these virtual machines vastly simpler, especially, if you don’t want to build environments from base boxes every time.
Command: vagrant status [name|id] This will tell you the state of the machines Vagrant is managing. It is quite easy, especially once you get comfortable with Vagrant, to forget whether your Vagrant machine is running, suspended, not created, etc. This command tells you the state of the underlying guest machine.
If you want to check running status with shell script. Try this code inside your project folder
vagrant status --machine-readable | grep state,running
Then check output string or exit code
