-
source_path(string) - URL of the vagrant box to use, or the name of the vagrant box. hashicorp/precise64, ./mylocalbox.box and https://example.com/my-box.box are all valid source boxes. If your source is a .box file, whether locally or from a URL like the latter example above, you will also need to provide a box_name. This option is required, unless you set global_id. You may only set one or the other, not both. -
global_id(string) - the global id of a Vagrant box already added to Vagrant on your system. You can find the global id of your Vagrant boxes using the command vagrant global-status; your global_id will be a 7-digit number and letter comination that you'll find in the leftmost column of the global-status output. If you choose to use global_id instead of source_box, Packer will skip the Vagrant initialize and add steps, and simply launch the box directly using the global id.
