Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : packer Version : 0.5.2 Upstream Author : Mitchell Hashimoto * URL : http://www.packer.io/ * License : Mozilla Public License v2 Programming Lang: Go >= 1.2 Description : create vm images for multiple platforms from a single source configuration
Packer is a lightweight tool for create machine images for multiple platforms in parallel. Packer comes out of the box with support for creating AMIs (EC2), KVM, Openstack and VirtualBox images. Support for more platforms can be added via plugins. The images that Packer creates can easily be turned into Vagrant boxes. Extra notes: I had a look about the way packer works for Virtualbox and contrary to existing chroot-based tools, packer uses the debian-installer by preseeding a local http server. I am interested in packaging packer ! With the aim one day of creating official debian images for VirtualBox, though I would wait before to know if someone is willing to upload the resulting work in the archive. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
