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
Assume the scp target is a file instead of a directory. Assuming the scp
target is a file instead of a directory allows uploading files to a node
being provisioned with the ssh communciator using sftp and with the
winrm communicator. It is fully compatible with ansible; ansible
communicators only allow for files (never directories) to be uploaded
(when the copy module is used to upload a directory, ansible walks the
directory and uploads files one at a time).
Update documentation to explain how to provision a Windows image.
Extend tests that use ssh to communicate with the node to include single
files, recursive copies, and content-only recursive copies.
Add test to verify support for the winrm communicator.
Remove the err argument from adapter.scpExec, because it was unused.
Fixes#3911
Took some digging to realize that `iso_url` can actually take in a qcow2 or img format. This is fantastic and works great out of the box. I feel like adding the extra 2 lines of docs will help future users looking for this.
