Cool New Packer Features

Packer 1.3.5 was released very recently. It includes a feature that users have been requesting for years: the ability to build Vagrant boxes from existing Vagrant boxes using the “vagrant” builder. Along with this feature, there are dozens of other great changes.

This talk is presented by HashiCorp engineer Megan Marsh. HashiCorp has pushed a lot of great new features into Packer in the last year. This session showcases some of the best ones.

This presentation was part of the first HashiTalks online event—A 24-hour continuous series of presentations from the worldwide HashiCorp User Group (HUG) community and from HashiCorp engineers as well. The event took place from February 21-22, 2019.
