Configuring Remote Interpreters via Vagrant

Ensure that the following prerequisites are met (outside of PyCharm):

Oracle's VirtualBox is installed on your computer.
Vagrant is installed on your computer, and all the necessary infrastructure is created.
The parent folders of the following executable files are added to the system PATH variable:
- vagrant.bat or vagrant from your Vagrant installation. This should be done automatically by the installer.
- VBoxManage.exe or VBoxManage from your Oracle's VirtualBox installation.
The required virtual boxes are created.

To configure a remote Python interpreter

Ensure that you have properly initiated and started Vagrant. Basically, you need to open the Terminal window and execute the following commands:
$ vagrant init ubuntu/trusty64

Click OK. The configured remote interpreter is added to the list.
Back in the Project Interpreter page, if necessary, configure the path mappings:
