I am trying to create a custom packer plugin that can resolve the latest version of an image in openstack and then call the Openstack builder using that as the source image. I am also learning golang while I do this.
My plan is to create a custom builder which will handle the lookup and then call the existing Openstack Builder using the resolved image name and pass the other parameters through. So far I have created the plugin and it's building and trying to call the openstack.Builder functionality, however the plugin just hangs. james output will be in this color. 2017/12/28 14:39:45 james: 2017/12/28 14:39:45 Serving a plugin connection... 2017/12/28 14:39:45 ui: james output will be in this color. 2017/12/28 14:39:45 ui: 2017/12/28 14:39:45 Build debug mode: false 2017/12/28 14:39:45 Force build: false 2017/12/28 14:39:45 On error: 2017/12/28 14:39:45 Preparing build: james 2017/12/28 14:39:45 Waiting on builds to complete... 2017/12/28 14:39:45 Starting build run: james 2017/12/28 14:39:45 Running builder: james 2017/12/28 14:39:45 [INFO] (telemetry) Starting builder james 2017/12/28 14:39:45 ui: ==> james: in say ==> james: in say 2017/12/28 14:39:45 james: 2017/12/28 14:39:45 Plugin minimum port: 10000 2017/12/28 14:39:45 james: 2017/12/28 14:39:45 Plugin maximum port: 25000 2017/12/28 14:39:45 james: 2017/12/28 14:39:45 Plugin address: unix /tmp/packer-plugin904167325 2017/12/28 14:39:45 james: 2017/12/28 14:39:45 Waiting for connection...
