<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif;color:blue">Thanks for the feedback Yaniv, I’d love to see a python module for ovirt actions. What I’ve built is simple and a bit limited to the features I needed, so
if we can implement an existing library that has all the features and is proven to work then the automation tasks would be much simpler.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif;color:blue">And of course, a supported Ansible module would be even better, it would probably get more traction towards being added as an extra or core module that way
too.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif;color:blue"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif;color:blue">If you think this would be a valuable addition to the extra modules that ship with Ansible (at least temporarily), I’d appreciate if you comment ‘shipit’
on the pull request to mark it for inclusion!<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Ryan,<o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">This looks really interesting and surely is useful.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">My only comment would be that I think we should start to think about some Python module for oVirt actions.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Otherwise, every project (this, ovirt-system-tests, others) that use the ovirt Python SDK for oVirt automation more or less re-implement the same functions.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">What do you think?<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Also, we are thinking about auto-generating such Ansible playbook (same way as the SDKs are generated). <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">It might look less 'human', but it will always be complete and up-to-date with all features.<o:p></o:p></p>
