Plugin Not Found in K8s Sample

[5t33]

When navigating to "samples" and running:

 docker run \
  --rm \
  --privileged \
  -v /dev:/dev \
  -v ${PWD}:/build:ro \
  -v ${PWD}/packer_cache:/build/packer_cache \
  -v ${PWD}/output-arm-image:/build/output-arm-image \
  -v ${HOME}/.ssh/id_rsa.pub:/config/id_rsa.pub:ro \
  -e PACKER_CACHE_DIR=/build/packer_cache \
  -w /build/k8s \
  ghcr.io/solo-io/packer-plugin-arm-image:v0.2.3 build -var local_ssh_public_key=/config/id_rsa.pub .

I get the following error:

Error: no plugin installed for github.com/solo-io/arm-image >= 0.2.5

Did you run packer init for this project ?

I can solve this by adding the /root/.config directory as a volume:

-v ${PWD}/.config:/root/.config

and then running init like so:

docker run \
  --rm \
  --privileged  \
  -v ${PWD}/.config:/root/.config \
  -v /dev:/dev \
  -v ${PWD}:/build:ro \
  -v ${PWD}/packer_cache:/build/packer_cache \
  -v ${PWD}/output-arm-image:/build/output-arm-image \
  -v ${HOME}/.ssh/id_rsa.pub:/config/id_rsa.pub:ro \
  -e PACKER_CACHE_DIR=/build/packer_cache \
  -w /build/k8s \
 ghcr.io/solo-io/packer-plugin-arm-image:latest init .

followed by the build command, which then works.

So one solution might just be to add .config to the gitignore and update the docs.

I tried moving the build location of the plugin in the docker file to a few different locations, such as /root/packer/plugins, /root/.packer.d/plugins, etc and none of them have worked.
