Purpose:

Create a Post-processor plugin that will:

• Store new Vagrant boxes created with packer to a central repository
• Version the boxes

Ideas:

• Central repo is a shared Samba dir
• Updates the Vagrant .json file
• Each new box file, will be have the version appended to the file name

Examples:

• Assume a new ubuntu vagrant box was created using packer

--> packer build ubuntu-15.04.json

==> Builds finished. The artifacts of successful builds are: --> virtualbox-iso: 'virtualbox' provider box: ubuntu-15.04.box

• Upload the new box to the central repository

--> vboxrepo ubuntu 0.1 ubuntu-15.04.box "Ubuntu 15.04 box"
