What exactly do the Vagrant commands do?

Question

There is surprisingly no documentation on what the Vagrant commands do, other than references throughout the \"getting started\" tutorial.

Answer 1

I'm not sure when it changed, but the current version (1.6.3) has a proper list of commands, and running vagrant list-commands gives an even more complete list:

box             manages boxes: installation, removal, etc.
connect         connect to a remotely shared Vagrant environment
destroy         stops and deletes all traces of the vagrant machine
docker-logs     outputs the logs from the Docker container
docker-run      run a one-off command in the context of a container
global-status   outputs status Vagrant environments for this user
halt            stops the vagrant machine
help            shows the help for a subcommand
init            initializes a new Vagrant environment by creating a Vagrantfile
list-commands   outputs all available Vagrant subcommands, even non-primary ones
login           log in to Vagrant Cloud
package         packages a running vagrant environment into a box
plugin          manages plugins: install, uninstall, update, etc.
provision       provisions the vagrant machine
rdp             connects to machine via RDP
reload          restarts vagrant machine, loads new Vagrantfile configuration
resume          resume a suspended vagrant machine
rsync           syncs rsync synced folders to remote machine
rsync-auto      syncs rsync synced folders automatically when files change
share           share your Vagrant environment with anyone in the world
ssh             connects to machine via SSH
ssh-config      outputs OpenSSH valid configuration to connect to the machine
status          outputs status of the vagrant machine
suspend         suspends the machine
up              starts and provisions the vagrant environment
version         prints current and latest Vagrant version

The only commands left out from the complete list when running vagrant by itself are the docker and rsync ones. On my system, anyway.

That seems to be the definitive answer, now.
