Copying EC2 images over regions.

Open dbalan opened this issue 11 years ago • 1 comments

Since AWS provides an abstraction to copy the images generated over mutliple regions, doesn't it make sense to expose it in the manifest?

I have a written a simple plugin in this commit, but think it would be better to go into the image section in the manifest. What are your thoughts?

I think this is a great idea. I have long been wanting to reimplement the publishing plugin from build-debian-cloud, I just never got around to it. This is definitely useful, but I think it should be part of a larger "publishing" plugin. For ec2, this would involve granting access rights for everybody and copying the image to other regions. For virtualbox with vagrant it would be uploading the image to vagrantcloud.com etc.
