Synced folder in vagrant is not syncing in realtime

by

In your Vagrantfile the synced folder type is default vboxsf, however, in the vagrant up stdout, it is showing rsync type, I think you need to fix it in the config file.

Assume that you are using rsync type, you should have the following in your Vagrantfile

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
  config.vm.synced_folder ".", "/vagrant", type: "rsync",
    rsync__exclude: ".git/"
end

NOTE: By default, rsync__auto is set to true, which means rsync-auto will watch and automatically sync this folder.

Run vagrant rsync-auto and the directory should be in sync between host and guest.

Refer to vagrant docs for more information.
