Hi! Does it possible(featured, planned) to run some qemu-agent-command via libvirt binding (i'm interesting on ruby and php).?
I'm not sure the time-schedule of the ruby and php bindings maintainers, but ideally, ALL libvirt API should eventually have exposure in each language binding.
I'm understand that i can connect via socket and run it, but it very usable to get this ability inside binding.
In the meantime, if you can fork out to a shell, you can use 'virsh' from within your language of choice to drive the bindings. Also, it might help to say WHAT you hope to do with qemu-agent-command - that is an explicitly unsupported interface, and if you find yourself having to use it, it means we have a hole in libvirt proper, where we should expose a supported API to get at the same task without going through the backdoor. (As past examples, we added virDomainSetTime because people were previously having to use the agent's back door.) -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
