Submitting a new custom Builder

[chuacw]

Hi,

Can someone advise how I can submit a new custom Packer Builder?

Thank you.

Do you mean that you want to contribute the builder to the Packer source? If you want that just open a PR and describe what it does and give some refs, and examples. We will review it and test it. Usually we can check the code in general and when we have some time usually someone tests it out for real.

Hi Rickard,

Can you clarify where in the fork for the PR, the new Builder will be located?

Thanks.

Under builders/

What's the builder for?

Building VMs on the Tencent Cloud.

You were previously asking about the source here: https://groups.google.com/d/topic/packer-tool/bEgg_GhQdDM/discussion

[Rickard von Essen]

Ok, interesting. If you place the builder code under builders/tencent/ would be good.

Where would examples and refs go then?

[Rickard von Essen]

Documentation with refs and some minimal examples goes here https://github.com/hashicorp/packer/tree/master/website/source/docs/builders

We don't have any bigger examples except for the Azure and alicloud builders and they are located here https://github.com/hashicorp/packer/tree/master/examples
