* show error as to why plugin discovery failed
* allow to run more manual tests after a plugin installation
* test that a freshly installed external plugin can run
This adds the new `required_plugins` block to be nested under the packer block.
Example:
```hcl
packer {
required_plugins {
aws = {
version = ">= 2.7.0"
source = "azr/aws"
}
azure = ">= 2.7.0"
}
}
```
For example on darwin_amd64 Packer will install those under :
* "${PACKER_HOME_DIR}/plugin/github.com/azr/amazon/packer-plugin-amazon_2.7.0_x5.0_darwin_amd64"
* "${PACKER_HOME_DIR}/plugin/github.com/hashicorp/azure/packer-plugin-azure_2.7.0_x5.0_darwin_amd64_x5"
+ docs
+ tests
* change beta tag
* remove beta tag from hcl2_upgrade comment
* add a partial to describe the legacy json limitations
* exclude legacy category from templates until it is deployed to the website
* move maps of plugins back in core
* go mod vendor
* more fixes
* fix imports
* Update core_test.go
* fix build
* more fixes
* more fixes
* up vendors after fixing sdk
* Update post_processor_mock.hcl2spec.go
* Leave implementatino of MapOf in the sdk for plugi tests
Other wise use the interface
* go mod tidy
* add MapOfDatasource type too
* HCL2: Test that the packer block passes in packer validate
* HCL2: Test invalid packer blocks are invalid
* docs: state from which version the packer block is available
* Add packer fmt command
This change adds a new command that allows users to format one or more
HCL2 Packer configuration template files.
Related to: #9174
* command/fmt: Add check flag
Packer's fmt command now supports a check flag that will output the name
of any file that would be changed by the HCL2 formatting engine. The
check flag is mutually exclusive with the write flag and will only check
if formatting is needed.
The update write flag will now overwrite the source files with the newly
formatted HCL2 source unless the `-write=false` or `-check` is passed at
the command line.
* Returns a diagnostic error if Format is unable to show a diff - equivalent to `terraform fmt`
* Updates testing to run against #Format and not the private methods of the HCL2Formatter; fixes ShowDiff test failure on Windows
* Updates comments for exported functions
* Add docs for fmt command
* handle template_dir, pwd funcs, handle min_packer_version
* gotpl packer_version becomes hcl2 packer.version
* uuid becomes hcl2 uuidv4
* test code with emojis
* handle all cases were we cannot guess what the argument was
* handle clean_resource_name cases
* up docs
* add the possibility to set the packer.required_version field; to make sure the template file works with that version of Packer
* add tests
* add documentation on packer.required_version
Example:
packer {
required_version = ">= 1.2.0, < 2.0.0"
}
