I am having a packer code that creates an image on azure. I am using
ansible-local provisioner for installing the required tools. I execute the
below command
packer build -force -var azure_subscription_id=**** -var
azure_tennant_id=**** -var azure_application_id=**** -var
azure_application_password=**** -var nexus_user=**** -var
nexus_password=**** build_packer_azure_image.json
However, the ansible local provisioner executes the below comaand as a part
of packer provisioner. I need two variables nexus_username and
nexus_password to inherit the values from packer command above.
cd
/tmp/packer-provisioner-ansible-local/5b04201f-b988-90e6-b769-24822ffc5333
&& ANSIBLE_FORCE_COLOR=1 PYTHONUNBUFFERED=1 ansible-playbook
/tmp/packer-provisioner-ansible-local/5b04201f-b988-90e6-b769-24822ffc5333/provision.yml
--extra-vars "packer_build_name=azure-arm packer_builder_type=azure-arm
packer_http_addr=" --extra-vars 'nexus_username= nexus_password=' -c local
-i
/tmp/packer-provisioner-ansible-local/5b04201f-b988-90e6-b769-24822ffc5333/packer-provisioner-ansible-local158977121
As it can be seen, the variables are not getting populated. I am placing
the sample code snippets for reference in the packer file for reference.
Packer variables configuration:
-------------------------------
{
"variables": {
"azure_subscription_id": "{{env `azure_subscription_id`}}",
"azure_tennant_id": "{{env `azure_tennant_id`}}",
"azure_application_id": "{{env `azure_application_id`}}",
"azure_application_password": "{{env `azure_application_password`}}",
"ansible_nexus_user": "{{env `nexus_user`}}",
"ansible_nexus_password": "{{env `nexus_password`}}"
}
Packer provisioner Configuration:
--------------------------------
"provisioners": [
{
"type": "shell",
"scripts": [
"../scripts/install_ansible.sh"
]
},
{
"type": "ansible-local",
"playbook_dir": "../workstation-playbook",
"playbook_file": "../workstation-playbook/provision.yml",
"extra_arguments": [ "--extra-vars 'nexus_username={{user
`ansible_nexus_user`}} nexus_password={{user `ansible_nexus_password`}}'" ]
},
{
"execute_command": "chmod +x {{ .Path }}; {{ .Vars }} sudo -E sh '{{
.Path }}'",
"inline": [
"/usr/sbin/waagent -force -deprovision+user && export HISTSIZE=0 &&
sync"
],
"inline_shebang": "/bin/sh -x",
"type": "shell"
}]
}
Please help me resolving the issue.
