Docker builder - import from tar?

[Tyler McAdams]

I've been googling but cannot find any information on if it's possible to import a tarred docker image and build from that... can anyone provide help?

Not directly, but you could do something like:

packer build -var docker_image=$(docker load -q < image.tar) template.json
