A packer template to build an AMI containing everything needed to run jambonz on a single EC2 instance. The base linux distro is Debian 11 (bullseye).

Installing

To build a debian 11 AMI (preferred):

$  packer build -color=false template.json

To build an RHEL-8 AMI:

packer build -color=false -var "redhat_username=<my-rh-username>" -var "redhat_password=<my-rh-password>" template-rhel-8.json

To build an RHEL-9 AMI:

packer build -color=false -var "redhat_username=<my-rh-username>" -var "redhat_password=<my-rh-password>" template-rhel-9.json

Note: on RHEL-9 the kernel module for rtpengine (which passes media streams in the kernel rather than userspace) is not available. For that reason, you may prefer to deploy on RHEL-8 when deploying on RedHat Enterprise Linux.

variables

There are many variables that can be specified on the packer build command line; please check the templates to see the full list.
