This commit adds a new type of builder which builds an AMI based on a
snapshot of an EBS volume which is provisioned on a "surrogate"
instance. This can be used to build operating system images from
scratch, but unlike the `chroot` builder does not require running from
an AWS EC2 instance.
- Can now tune delay using PACKER_KEY_INTERVAL
- Added implementation to all of VMware and QEMU
- Removed double delay for QEMU
- Default key delay of 100ms (as before)
- Added docs to QEMU and VMware pages
This is a builder for Joyent's Triton system. It was originally at
jen20/packer-builder-triton, and subsequently at
joyent/packer-builder-triton on GitHub. The following commit vendors the
dependencies.
- Internal plugins are compiled into the same packer binary and invoked through the plugin command
- Search paths allow disk-based plugins to override and should function as normal
- This should allow for a 94% space savings vs statically compiling all the plugins as separate binaries.. approximately 24mb vs 431mb
