The ansible-local Packer provisioner configures Ansible to run on the
machine by Packer from local Playbook and Role files. Playbooks and Roles can
be uploaded from your local machine to the remote machine.
The ansible-local Packer provisioner will run ansible "locally" on the
remote/guest VM using Playbook and Role files that exist on the guest VM.
This means ansible must be installed on the remote/guest VM. Playbooks and
Roles can be uploaded from your local machine (the one running Packer) to
the vm.

provisioner](/docs/provisioners/shell.html) before the Ansible provisioner to do
this.
