In HashiCorp Packer, post-processors are used to perform additional actions after the machine image has been created by the builder and provisioners. These actions can include compressing the image, uploading it to a cloud provider, or converting it to a different format. Here are some of the available post-processors in Packer:
- Docker save post-processor
- Amazon Import post-processor
- Docker push post-processor
- Google Compute Engine export post-processor
- Vagrant post-processor
- VirtualBox export post-processor
- VMware export post-processor
- VMware OVF post-processor
- AWS AMI Cleanup post-processor
- Shell-local post-processor
- Atlas post-processor
- Null post-processor
Each post-processor has its own set of configuration options and is responsible for performing a specific action on the machine image. These actions are performed after the machine image has been created and provisioned, making post-processors a powerful tool for automating the image creation and distribution process.
