Hello!
I updated a few values in this page to be highlighted instead of "quoted". I think this is in line with other values already existing on this page and should make the whole more consistent.
Happy to discuss if this needs changes!
This is a clean(er) version of PR 4255
Added the 'kms_key_id' parameter. This supports supplying a customer master key (CMK) when encrypting the EBS volume.
The parameter is optional and only takes effect when 'encrypted' is true. When 'encrypted' is true but 'kms_key_id' is missing the 'aws/ebs' key will be used.
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!
Since the packer website isn't yet ready to use middleman partials,
this commit rolls back the partials in favor of bringing parity to
each amazon docs page
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.
