Thanks for the info. Are there any plans to extend the functionality
of the
ruby-libvirt gem beyond just the bindings? For instance, convenience
functions, OVF parsing, etc? We have needed this functionality so ended up
building a gem called "ovfparse" for fetching and parsing these types of
files (code at https://github.com/ruby-ovf/ovfparse).
The current bindings are, indeed, just a thin wrapper on top of the libvirt
API. I have had some requests (and patches) for a higher-level, more ruby-like
layer on top of the standard bindings. I haven't yet had time to take a look
at them, but I am not opposed to having a better library on top.
