Thanks, this is exactly what I needed. Is there some documentation where I can get how to exactly call this function along with the arguments? On Wed, Aug 14, 2019 at 6:48 PM Peter Krempa <pkrempa@redhat.com> wrote:

Hi,

I wanted to know if there is any Python API exposed for libvirt using which I can attach a libvirt volume to a libvirt domain/VM.

I intend to do something similar to the `attach-disk` command of virsh using python.

virsh uses the virDomainAttachDeviceFlags API in the 'attach-disk' command wrapper. the python bindings expose it as 'attachDeviceFlags' method of the virDomain class.

python has builtin documentation: import libvirt help(libvirt) Disk XML documentation is here: https://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#elementsDisks the C api documentation is here: https://libvirt.org/html/libvirt-libvirt-domain.html#virDomainAttachDeviceFl... Also for inspiration 'virsh attach-disk' supports the --print-xml argument.
