Hi,
I would like to list devices (for instance I would like to retrieve
the <filesystem> part in <devices><filesystem
type="mount">...</filesystem></devices>) embedded in a domain via
the
ruby bindings ?
Thanks

The steps are roughly:
1. require 'libvirt'
2. Connect to libvirt using the open method
3. Find the domain you care about using lookup_domain_by_name
4. Get the XML for the domain
5. Parse the domain XML using nokogiri or similar
It would look something like this (the details will be somewhat
different depending on which connection URI and domain you are using):
require 'libvirt'
conn = Libvirt::open('qemu:///system')
dom = conn.lookup_domain_by_name('f19')
xml_doc = Nokogiri::XML(dom.xml_desc)
devs = xml_doc.xpath('/domain/devices')
After that last line, you'll have the ability to iterate over the
devices, and do whatever you want with them. Hope this helps!

Hi,
Thanks to your advice, I was able to make it work using nokogiri.
I am now trying to attach new devices (shared folders) via my custom function:
=====
def attach_device(uuid , device)
puts "CAlled with uuid #{uuid}"
client.lookup_domain_by_uuid(uuid).update_device(device.to_s, 0)
end
=====
"device.to_s" returns a correct xml for <filesystem>. I then have the
following error:
CAlled with uuid 8cc185ef-4bf1-4b78-9caa-cd14c70cd1b3
/home/teto/fog/lib/fog/libvirt/requests/compute/attach_device.rb:38:in
`update_device': Call to virDomainUpdateDeviceFlags failed: >Operation not
supported: persistent update of device 'filesystem' is not supported
(Libvirt::Error)
Does that mean I need to undefine my domain and then recreate it if I
want to keep the update persistent ?
Regards
Matt

Sorry, I don't really know about that. Hopefully someone else will be
able to answer.
