I’m trying to work with the Developing Plugins documentation and the packer-plugin-scaffolding repo to create a builder.
Is it possible to reference this plugin locally? I’ve tried naming the compiled plugin packer-plugin-<xxx> and putting it in the .../.packer.d/pluings/ directory.
The init completes successful, and shows the plugin is found:
[TRACE] discovering plugins in /root/.packer.d/plugins
[DEBUG] Discovered plugin: testing = /root/.packer.d/plugins/packer-plugin-testing
[INFO] found external [testing-builder] builders from testing plugin
but the build returns a message as if the builder is not known.
[INFO] (telemetry) Finalizing.

Is there a way to make the builder “known” ? Should it be set to null ? or is something else going on?
