A plugin for Packer which provides access to git. Compatible with Packer >= 1.7.0
Under the hood, it uses go-git.
Add the plugin to your packer config:
packer {
required_plugins {
git = {
version = ">= 0.6.2"
source = "github.com/ethanmdavidson/git"
}
}
}
Add the data source:
data "git-commit" "example" { }
Now you should have access to info about the commit:
locals {
hash = data.git-commit.example.hash
}
See the examples directory for some example code.
See the docs for a reference of all the available components and their attributes.
The GNUmakefile has all the commands you need to work with this repo. The typical development flow looks something like this:
1) Make code changes, and add test cases for these changes.
2) Run make generate
to recreate generated code.
2) Run make dev

directory if necessary.
5) Run make run-example
to test examples.
6) Once the above steps are complete: commit, push, and open a PR!
