What is the best way to transfer files to a virtual machine in VirtualBox?

Question

linux

Installed a virtual machine on VirtualBox. The host machine is Windows, the guest machine is Ubuntu. I installed LAMP and a few other utilities (like phpUnit, composer) on the guest machine. Now I want to edit the code on my host machine and run it on the guest. Question: what is the best way to carry out the process of uploading files? Create a shared folder or transfer everything via SSH? Or are there any more automated convenient ways?

Answer 1

SSH, of course.

Answer 2

In such cases, he himself used the virtualbox function - a shared folder. The only caveat is that the guest room sees it as a remote hard drive.

Answer 3

ssh (scp) or ftp. Unix in a virtual machine is not much different from unix on a server.
It is not necessary to file unnatural protocols like samba to unix. Don't get used to what.

Answer 4

Vagrant
