The Scaleway Packer builder is able to create new images for use with
|
|
Scaleway BareMetal and Virtual cloud server. The builder takes a source image, runs any provisioning
|
|
necessary on the image after launching it, then snapshots it into a reusable
|
|
image. This reusable image can then be used as the foundation of new servers
|
|
that are launched within Scaleway.

# Scaleway Builder
|
|
|
|
Type: `scaleway`
|
|
|
|
The `scaleway` Packer builder is able to create new images for use with
|
|
[Scaleway](https://www.scaleway.com). The builder takes a source image,
|
|
runs any provisioning necessary on the image after launching it, then snapshots
|
|
it into a reusable image. This reusable image can then be used as the foundation
|
|
of new servers that are launched within Scaleway.
|
|
|
|
The builder does *not* manage snapshots. Once it creates an image, it is up to you
|
|
to use it or delete it.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration Reference
|
|
|
|
There are many configuration options available for the builder. They are
|
|
segmented below into two categories: required and optional parameters. Within
|
|
each category, the available configuration keys are alphabetized.
|
|
|
|
In addition to the options listed here, a
|
|
[communicator](/docs/templates/communicator.html) can be configured for this
|
|
builder.
|
|
|
|
### Required:
|
|
|
|
- `api_access_key` (string) - The api_access_key to use to access your account.
|
|
It can also be specified via
|
|
environment variable `SCALEWAY_API_ACCESS_KEY`.
|
|
Your access key is available in the ["Credentials" section](https://cloud.scaleway.com/#/credentials) of the control panel.
|
|
|
|
- `api_token` (string) - The organization TOKEN to use to access your account.
|
|
It can also be specified via
|
|
environment variable `SCALEWAY_API_TOKEN`.
|
|
Your tokens are available in the ["Credentials" section](https://cloud.scaleway.com/#/credentials) of the control panel.
|
|
|
|
- `image` (string) - The UUID of the base image to use. This is the
|
|
image that will be used to launch a new server and provision it. See
|
|
[https://api-marketplace.scaleway.com/images](https://api-marketplace.scaleway.com/images) to
|
|
get the complete list of the accepted image UUID.
|
|
|
|
- `region` (string) - The name of the region to launch the
|

|

|
|
|
|
- `image_name` (string) - The name of the resulting image that will
|
|
appear in your account.
|
|
|
|
- `snapshot_name` (string) - The name of the resulting snapshot that will
|
|
appear in your account.
|
|
|
|
## Basic Example
|
|
|
|
Here is a basic example. It is completely valid as soon as you enter your own
|
|
access tokens:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"type": "scaleway",
|
|
"api_access_key": "YOUR API ACCESS KEY",
|
|
"api_token": "YOUR TOKEN",
|
|
"image": "f01f8a48-c026-48ac-9771-a70eaac0890e",
|
|
"region": "par1",
|
|
"commercial_type": "X64-2GB",
|
|
"ssh_username": "root",
|
|
"ssh_private_key_file": "~/.ssh/id_rsa",
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
When you do not specified the `ssh_private_key_file`, a temporarily SSH keypair is generated to connect the server.
|
|
This key will only allows the `root` user to connect the server. |
