Running script automatically in vagrant

How can I run a script automatically when vagrant is up? I used provision method. But in that method i need to point out some .sh file. I dont want to point to .sh file. I need to build the script within the Vagrantfile. Please help me to fix this issue.

I tried 

Vagrant::Config.run do |config|
  config.vm.provision :shell, :path => "test.sh
end

I want to append the scripts in test.sh into vagrant file directly.

You can use inline script in Vagrantfile, even Here Document which made complex shell scripts embedded in it possible.

Example:

$script = <<'EOF'
echo shell provisioning...
date -R > /etc/vagrant_provisioned_at
EOF

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
  config.vm.provision :shell, :inline => $script
end

NOTE: single quoted LimitString is to escape special characters like or$`.

Check the Docs out => http://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/provisioning/shell.html
