I've been [using Proxmox](/ditching-vsphere-for-proxmox/) in my [homelab](/homelab/) for a little while now, and I recently expanded the environment a bit with the addition of two HP Elite Mini 800 G9 computers. I figured it was time to start automating the process of building and maintaining my VM templates. I already had functional [Packer templates for VMware](https://github.com/jbowdre/packer-vsphere-templates) so I used that content as a starting point for the [Proxmox builds](https://github.com/jbowdre/packer-proxmox-templates).

(So far, I've only ported over the Ubuntu builds; I'm telling myself I'll get the rest moved over after *finally* publishing this post.)
Once I had the builds working locally, I then explored how to automate them. I wound up setting up a GitHub Actions workflow and a rootless runner to perform the builds for me. I'll write up notes on *that* part of the process soon, but first let's run through how I set up Packer at all. That will be plenty to chew on for now.

This post will cover *a lot* of the Packer implementation details but may gloss over some general setup steps; you'll need at least passing familiarity with [Packer](https://www.packer.io/) and [Vault](https://www.vaultproject.io/) to take this on.
