Installs Packer using the ark cookbook.
None.
Just include recipe[packer] in your run list.
This will put Packer into /usr/local in a packer-*version* directory, with a symlink of packer to /usr/local/bin.
node[:packer][:url_base]- Base URL from which to download (in case you have your own mirror). Defaults to the link at http://www.packer.io/downloads.html.node[:packer][:version]- The version of Packer to install.node[:packer][:arch]- Architecture to use; auto-detects amd64 and 386 but you must override with arm if desired.node[:packer][:raw_checksums]- The contents of the upstream checksum file to allow checksum auto-detection.node[:packer][:checksums]- AHashmapping file name to checksums, derived by default fromraw_checksums.node[:packer][:checksum]- SHA-256 checksum of appropriate binary. Should be auto-detected for the default version using data inraw_checksumsorchecksums.
When overriding with a particular desired version, you can set the checksum a variety of ways. When this cookbook is updated for a new default version, the checksums will be updated by the maintainers.
If you require a particular older (or newer) version, you can update the
raw_checksums with the official SHA256SUM list from
https://dl.bintray.com/mitchellh/packer/${VERSION}_SHA256SUMS?direct
(easiest), directly override the checksums attribute with an explicit map of
just the versions you want (somewhat more work for you), or just directly
setting the checksum attribute (if you only need a single platform).
Note that you can also ignore the checksum variables if you don't care about downloading the binary repeatedly as Chef only uses the checksum to avoid re-downloads, and not to verify integrity.
