  • checksum_type (string) - The type of the checksum specified in checksum. Valid values are none, md5, sha1, sha256, or sha512. Although the checksum will not be verified when checksum_type is set to "none", this is not recommended since OVA files can be very large and corruption does happen from time to time.

  • guest_additions_mode (string) - The method by which guest additions are made available to the guest for installation. Valid options are upload, attach, or disable. If the mode is attach the guest additions ISO will be attached as a CD device to the virtual machine. If the mode is upload the guest additions ISO will be uploaded to the path specified by guest_additions_path. The default value is upload. If disable is used, guest additions won't be downloaded, either.

  • guest_additions_path (string) - The path on the guest virtual machine where the VirtualBox guest additions ISO will be uploaded. By default this is VBoxGuestAdditions.iso which should upload into the login directory of the user. This is a configuration template where the Version variable is replaced with the VirtualBox version.

  • guest_additions_interface (string) - The interface type to use to mount guest additions when guest_additions_mode is set to attach. Will default to the value set in iso_interface, if iso_interface is set. Will default to "ide", if iso_interface is not set. Options are "ide" and "sata".

  • guest_additions_sha256 (string) - The SHA256 checksum of the guest additions ISO that will be uploaded to the guest VM. By default the checksums will be downloaded from the VirtualBox website, so this only needs to be set if you want to be explicit about the checksum.

  • guest_additions_url (string) - The URL to the guest additions ISO to upload. This can also be a file URL if the ISO is at a local path. By default, the VirtualBox builder will attempt to find the guest additions ISO on the local file system. If it is not available locally, the builder will download the proper guest additions ISO from the internet.

  • import_flags ([]string) - Additional flags to pass to VBoxManage import. This can be used to add additional command-line flags such as --eula-accept to accept a EULA in the OVF.

  • import_opts (string) - Additional options to pass to the VBoxManage import. This can be useful for passing keepallmacs or keepnatmacs options for existing ovf images.

  • target_path (string) - The path where the OVA should be saved after download. By default, it will go in the packer cache, with a hash of the original filename as its name.

  • vm_name (string) - This is the name of the OVF file for the new virtual machine, without the file extension. By default this is packer-BUILDNAME, where "BUILDNAME" is the name of the build.

  • keep_registered (bool) - Set this to true if you would like to keep the VM registered with virtualbox. Defaults to false.

  • skip_export (bool) - Defaults to false. When enabled, Packer will not export the VM. Useful if the build output is not the resultant image, but created inside the VM.
