Can packer with vmware-vmx connect to esxi?
Is it possible for the vmware-vmx provisioner of packer to connecto to an esxi server? The documentation (https://www.packer.io/docs/builders/vmware-vmx.html) does seem toe lack the variables remote_* which are available in https://www.packer.io/docs/builders/vmware-iso.html

We've developed a new Packer plugin for exactly this task: remote incremental builds using native vSphere API. Check out at https://github.com/jetbrains-infra/packer-builder-vsphere
