This PR adds the ability for Packer to clean up snapshots in addition to
deregistering AMIs at build time.
To test this, I used the following `test.json` file:
```json
{
"builders": [
{
"type": "amazon-ebs",
"region": "us-east-1",
"source_ami": "ami-fce3c696",
"ami_name": "packer-test",
"instance_type": "m3.medium",
"ssh_username": "ubuntu",
"vpc_id": "some-vpc-id",
"subnet_id": "some-subnet-routed-through-igw",
"security_group_id": "some-security-group-with-port-22-access",
"force_delete_snapshot": true
}
],
"provisioners": [
{
"type": "shell-local",
"command": "echo 'hello'"
}
]
}
```
I appreciate any constructive feedbakc that can be given. Cheers!
This commit adds the ability to configure unique tags on snapshots
that are separate from the tags defined on the AMI. Anything applied
to the AMI will also be applied to the snapshots, but `snapshot_tags`
will override and append tags to the tags already applied to the snapshots
This commit adds an option to use the local SSH Agent to authenticate
connections to source instances started by the the EBS and Instance
Store builders.
This is of use when the source AMI _already_ has configuration for
authorized SSH keys - for example if one uses an SSH certificate
authority.
A further extension (not implemented in this commit) is to allow SSH
agent use with a pre-defined key pair, in order to allow keys with
passphrases to be used without giving the passphrase to Packer.
This adds support for using amazon-ebs/amazon-instance builder without
a keypair. If a ssh_private_key_file is supplied without a
ssh_keypair_name no temporary ssh keypair is created. If ssh_password is
used no temporary ssh keypair is created and the password is used when
trying to connect.

A common cause of the failure of the bundle volume step is missing the
ec2-bundle-vol command on the target instance. This commit adds a note
about this to the error message produced as Packer output if the
bundling step fails (it is already in the documentation).
This commit moves the Amazon builders of Packer away from the Hashicorp
fork of the goamz library to the official AWS SDK for Go, in order that
third party plugins may depend on the more complete official library
more easily.
