## VMWare Example
This is an example that uses `vmware-iso` builder and exports the `.ova` file using ovftool.
``` json
"post-processors" : [
[
{
"type": "shell-local",
"inline": [ "/usr/bin/ovftool <packer-output-directory>/<vmware-name>.vmx <packer-output-directory>/<vmware-name>.ova" ]
},
{
"files": [
"<packer-output-directory>/<vmware-name>.ova"
],
"type": "artifice"
},
{
"type": "amazon-import",
"access_key": "YOUR KEY HERE",
"secret_key": "YOUR SECRET KEY HERE",
"region": "us-east-1",
"s3_bucket_name": "importbucket",
"license_type": "BYOL",
"tags": {
"Description": "packer amazon-import {{timestamp}}"
}
}
]
]
```

environmental variables. See the configuration reference in the section above
for more information on what environmental variables Packer will look for.
