request adding the ability to specify vapp/vapp template metadata in Vagrantfile #82

Closed sdorsett closed 3 years ago

sdorsett commented 10 years ago

I would be nice to be ability to specify vapp/vapp template metadata in Vagrantfile rather and having to loop back around and add/modify this data after the vapp templates have been uploaded into the organization catalog.

I think this feature request could fit more in the packer plugin rather than here, can you show me a practical example/use case for this?

sdorsett commented 10 years ago

We have multiple vapps needing to be deployed into each of our vCD instances that also require multiple metadata entries, unique to each vapp, to be created. This metadata isn't preserved in an .ovf export of the vapps.

I'll look into the packer plugin to see if it would help with our use case.

@sdorsett I want to flag this as enhancement for the next version, can you show me a practical example of what you're doing? the API calls you make would be extremely useful in adding this functionality.

EDIT:

Is this related to #73 ?
