packerlicious - a python library to create packer templates.

This project leverages the logic engine of troposphere.

packerlicious can be installed via pip:

$ pip install packerlicious

Below is the packerlicious equivalent of packer's example template

>>> from packerlicious import builder, provisioner, Template
>>> template = Template()
>>> template.add_builder(
        builder.AmazonEbs(
            access_key="...",
            secret_key="...",
            region = "us-east-1",
            source_ami="ami-fce3c696",
            instance_type="t2.micro",
            ssh_username="ubuntu",
            ami_name="packer {{timestamp}}"
        )
    )
<packerlicious.builder.AmazonEbs object at 0x104e87ad0>
>>> template.add_provisioner(
        provisioner.Shell(
            script="setup_things.sh"
        )
    )
<packerlicious.provisioner.Shell object at 0x1048c08d0>
>>> print(template.to_json())
