Choria/Vagrant Demo on M1 Mac

[fostercraig]

Hi:
I was trying to get a local development and testing environment setup and I'm not able to use the demo. I don't think there's a Vagrant that works on Apple M1 for VirtualBox. The "developer preview" of Virtualbox is not working for me. I tried VMWare Fusion and it also had another set of issues. Is there anyway to setup a development environment on my machine?

At present I don’t have a m1 build that will work. But I got a m2 this week so it will probsbly get fixed soon

Thanks!

That said, you can run x86_64 linux images on a m1, its a bit slow (uses qemu) but if you patch https://github.com/ripienaar/choria-compose like this below then it will work for you
