I got the use case of ovirt.js. But I don't think so it can be used in my case. I have to instead use CGI/php. My aim is to run the command from the rhevm manager bash prompt with dynamic attributes and then returns the success/failure result.
E.g `rhevmcommand -lrt -p password `
Rhevmcommand is written in bash script, which internally calls REST api using curl.
Password is similar that of rhevm manager database.
Now I want something like <snip> Var result=`rhevmcommand -lrt` <> in HTML/java/...web UI.
can you please explain why you would prefer to web-->gateway-->cli-->REST, rather than just web-->REST ?

Exactly, the main use case for oVirtJS is to allow working with Engine from within a JavaScript environment. HTML/JS web application is the primary use case, we also plan to support "server-side JS code running on Node.js" as another use case, so that people can potentially write custom server-side JS to work with Engine.
