Docker-packer-ansible

This image aims to provide a usable packer image with ansible slipstreamed inside for easy utilization of the Ansible remote builder

A few notes:

• I've based off the most official Packer image, hashicorp/packer
• This is Alpine Linux, which means it is small and weird
• The entrypoint has been reset to the Docker default /bin/sh/ -c

Example

Given you bind mount a directory ami_build which has your packer.json and related ansible scripts, something like this should work.

docker run -v /home/user/ami_build:/build -ti -e AWS_ACCESS_KEY=blah
-e AWS_SECRET_KEY=blah inanimate/packer-ansible "packer build packer.json"
