Homestead: Default php version?

[steveheinsch]

I know you can set the php version on a per site basis, but is there a way to set the default php version for all sites to use so it doesn't use whatever is the most current version as default if you don't specify a version per site?

Not at this time.

I'd find it very handy, as setting site-specific PHP version doesn't work for apache type (#630).
That way I could at least choose global version.

workaround, assuming you want switch to php 7.0:
1) add required php version to one of the sites and run provision which will install it: vagrant reload --provision
2) to change default CLI, run sudo update-alternatives --config php
3) switch apache modules

sudo a2dismod php7.2
sudo a2enmod php7.0
sudo service apache2 restart

This has been resolved by https://github.com/laravel/homestead/issues/892, but still on have to run vagrant reload --provision to recreate sites.
