[Kimchi-devel] [PATCH] [Kimchi] /plugins/kimchi/ovsbridges API

[Aline Manera]

Hi Suresh,

Is this patch part of the work to enabling assigning network interfaces 
to a guest without relying on libvirt?
So you need to expose an API to list the OVS bridges to UI be able to 
show the available values to user. Is that correct?

A minor comment below:

The role_key represents which tab the information provided by the API 
will be used.
If the plans is to allow user attach a new network interface to a guest 
on Edit Guest, the right value for role_key would be 'guests'.
