pakka v4.0.4

Pakka

Pakka helps you modularise and re-use packer templates. Dont repeat yourself.

Things you can do with pakka:

Re-use pre-existing open-source packer templates with your own infrastructure; Maintain libraries of provisioners/post-processors and apply them to multiple builds; Safely pull in changes from upstream without having to manually merge templates.

Install

Make sure you have nodejs and packer installed, then run

npm install -g pakka

Use

Write a Pakkafile in your packer template's directory and invoke pakka.

It will invoke packer to build the referenced templates, integrating all the transformations included in the pakkafile.
