New ssh connection per provisioning script?

[Sameer Agrawal]

Hi,

Is there a way where packer can instantiate a new ssh connection for every provisioning script/section?

For example, If I have something like this below, can we have a terminate the existing connection and start a new one for the next section?

  "provisioners": [

    {

      "type": "shell-local",

      "command": "tar cf toupload/files.tar files"

    },

    {

      "destination": "/tmp/",

      "source": "./toupload",

      "type": "file"

    },

    {

      "inline": [

        "cd /tmp && tar xf toupload/files.tar",

        "rm toupload/files.tar"

      ],

      "type": "shell"

    }

  ]

}

Thanks

Sameer

Unfortunately this isn't currently possible. The idea's been on our radar for a while but it'd involve some architectural changes that are complex, and probably won't happen until our json-style templating is complete deprecated and removed from Packer.
