How to list installed software list through packer

[vipin tiwari]

Hi guys, How can i list installed packages on packer build. I'm using post-processors section with the inline shell to list all software but giving local installed software.

Thanks for the help

not clear what you want to do

post-processor run after the VM has been created

if you want to run a command on the guest then you need to use a shell provisioner

can you explain whats the host os whats the guest os and what you want to see and how you want to capture ?

assuming you are running centos, you want say rpm -qa to list all packages?

if yes you could generate a file with the packages output, then download to the host

if could confirm
