# Salt Masterless Provisioner
Type: `salt-masterless`
The salt-masterless provisioner provisions machines built by Packer using [Salt](http://saltstack.com/) states.
## Basic Example
The example below is fully functional.
<pre class="prettyprint">
{
"type": "salt-masterless",
"bootstrap_args": "git v0.16.0"
"local_state_tree": "/Users/me/salt"
}
</pre>
## Configuration Reference
The reference of available configuration options is listed below. The only required argument is the path to your local salt state tree.
Required:
* `local_state_tree` (string) - The path to your local [state tree](http://docs.saltstack.com/ref/states/highstate.html#the-salt-state-tree). This will be uploaded to the `/srv/salt` on the remote, and removed before shutdown.
Optional:
* `skip_bootstrap` (boolean) - By default the salt provisioner runs [salt bootstrap](https://github.com/saltstack/salt-bootstrap) to install salt. Set this to true to skip this step.
* `boostrap_args` (string) -
Arguments to send to the bootstrap script. Usage is somewhat documented on [github](https://github.com/saltstack/salt-bootstrap), but the [script itself](https://github.com/saltstack/salt-bootstrap/blob/develop/bootstrap-salt.sh) has more detailed usage instructions. By default, no arguments are sent to the script.
* `temp_config_dir` (string) - Where your local state tree will be copied before moving to the `/srv/salt` directory. Default is `/tmp/salt`.
