Hi there Manuel, I have not used the ansible (remote) provisioner with docker so I can't speak to it directly, but since the ansible provisioner relies on SSH I believe you would be responsible for setting up an SSH server on the container along with installing a version of Ansible in order for the provisioner to work.
If you are looking to provisioner a docker container with Ansible you might want to look into the ansible-local provisioner as it does not rely on SSH access to the container, but does require that the host running Packer have a local version of Ansible installed. Have you seen the example build templates (https://github.com/hashicorp/packer-plugin-ansible/tree/main/example) for the Ansible plugin? There is a docker with ansible-local example that you might find useful https://github.com/hashicorp/packer-plugin-ansible/blob/main/example/docker-ansible-local.pkr.hcl Please let me know if this was the information you were looking for. -- Wilken Rivera <[email protected]> On Tue, Jun 8, 2021, at 9:46 AM, Manuel Sopena Ballesteros wrote: > > Dear hashicorp packer community, > > I am learning packer and would like to understand if it is possible to have > the ansible provisioner working with docker builder.
