Simon Guyennet delivered a refreshed Packer and OpenStack image creation workflow for the ovh/docs repository, focusing on automation and maintainability. He updated the process to leverage Packer v1.11.2 and the OpenStack plugin, aligning image provisioning with Ubuntu 24.04 and the b2-7 flavor for custom images. By configuring Packer to source image, flavor, and network IDs from environment variables, Simon enabled safer and more repeatable builds while reducing manual intervention. His work, primarily using Markdown for documentation and automation scripting, improved the reliability and speed of image provisioning, though the scope was limited to a single feature over one month.
