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). Once I had the builds working locally, I just had to explore how to automate them.

This post will describe how I did it. It will cover a lot of the 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.

The only configuration I did on the Proxmox side of things was to [create a user account](https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/chapter-pveum.html#pveum_users) that Packer could use. I called it `packer` but didn't set a password for it. Instead, I set up an [API token](https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/chapter-pveum.html#pveum_tokens) for that account, making sure to uncheck the "Privilege Separation" box so that the token inherits the same permissions as the user itself.

By this point, we've got a functional virtual machine running on the Proxmox host but there are still some additional tasks to perform before it can be converted to a template. That's where the `build {}` block comes in: it connects to the VM and runs a few `provisioner` steps:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- The `file` provisioner is used to copy any certificate files into the VM at `/tmp` (ll. 181-182) and to copy the `join-domain.sh` script into the initial user's home directory (ll. 186-187).
|
||||||
|
- The first `shell` provisioner loops through and executes all the scripts listed in `var.post_install_scripts` (ll. 191-193). The last script in that list (`update-packages.sh`) finishes with a reboot for good measure.
|
||||||
|
- The second `shell` provisioner (ll. 197-203) waits for 30 seconds for the reboot to complete before it picks up with the remainder of the scripts, and it passes in the bootloader password for use by the hardening script.
