VSphere Support? #148

Closed tomswaby-zz closed 8 years ago

Hi Joe,

Great contribution - i've been using this successfully in vagrant its great. Just wondering what you'd need to do to add vSphere support to the code? It'd be hugely beneficial...

Thanks

Hey Tom. You should be able to use this with vSphere today by adding the vSphere post-processor to your .json: https://packer.io/docs/post-processors/vsphere.html

There also is this packer post processor at https://github.com/frapposelli/packer-post-processor-better-vsphere, but I don't know the status of it. Fabio then implemented packer post processors vor vCenter and vCloud at https://github.com/gosddc/packer-post-processor-vagrant-vmware-ovf.

Post-process is the current supported way to go. It would be nice to directly work against vSphere, but that would need to be added to core Packer.
