These are the packer.io templates and associated code to generate Vagrant boxes and other images such as AWS AMI.
There is a script included in each platform called watch which is used to
simply monitor if a kernel update exists for that platform. In case one does,
a new packer build is initiated.
The Atlas post processor is included in the builds to upload each new build to Atlas after a successful build. In order to use this, you will need to obtain an Atlas key and populate it in your .bashrc file -- or the relevant one for your environment.
After a successful upload, t is used to notify the appropriate Twitter
account of a new upload. In order to install and configure t, please see:
