Packer Plugin Azure

The Azure multi-component plugin can be used with HashiCorp Packer to create custom images. For the full list of available features for this plugin see docs.

Installation

Using pre-built releases

Using the packer init command

Starting from version 1.7, Packer supports a new packer init command allowing automatic installation of Packer plugins. Read the Packer documentation for more information.

To install this plugin, copy and paste this code into your Packer configuration . Then, run packer init.

packer {
  required_plugins {
    azure = {
      version = ">= 2.6.0"
      source  = "github.com/hashicorp/azure"
    }
  }
}

Note: Update to Packer Plugin Installation

With the new Packer release starting from version v1.14.0, the packer init command will automatically install official plugins from the HashiCorp release site.

Going forward, to use newer versions of official Packer plugins, you'll need to upgrade to Packer version 1.14.0 or later. If you're using an older version, you can still install plugins, but as a workaround, you'll need to manually install them using the CLI.

There is no change to the syntax or commands for installing plugins.

Manual installation

You can find pre-built binary releases of the plugin here. Once you have downloaded the latest archive corresponding to your target OS, uncompress it to retrieve the plugin binary file corresponding to your platform. To install the plugin, please follow the Packer documentation on installing a plugin.

From Sources

If you prefer to build the plugin from sources, clone the GitHub repository locally and run the command go build from the root directory. Upon successful compilation, a packer-plugin-azure plugin binary file can be found in the root directory. To install the compiled plugin, please follow the official Packer documentation on installing a plugin.

Configuration

For more information on how to configure the plugin, please read the documentation located in the docs/ directory.
