BTW, the ovirt-shell is something we deprecated. It is working on top of the v3 api, which we plan to remove in 4.2.
So better not use it.

Alternatives are to use the SDKs according to your preference (we have Java, python and Ruby SDKs) or the ansible modules mentioned above by Moran (instead of writing scripts you can write playbooks to do various operations ).

Oved

A few reasons really. I fancied playing around with Click, so I made
this as I was also digging around the oVirt API. My workstation at work
is running Ubuntu, and I do not believe that ovirt-shell is packaged for it.
sudo apt-get install -y python-pip
sudo pip install kitchen
sudo pip install ply
sudo pip install ovirt-shell

Also, choice is good.

Finally: because I didn't think of it.

Hi Chris,

Just a quick question, but, why not just use ovirt-shell?
Or make this a wrapper around ovirt-shell?

Hi all

I started hacking together something last night to use as a CLI to
manage my oVirt clusters.

https://gogs.chriscowley.me.uk/chriscowley/ovirtmanage

Currently it can create/delete a VM, list the VMS, and I started a
function to show the details, but all that does for now is return the ID.

The plan is for it to evolve with my own needs, but I am open to
ideas/PRs from the community.

Disclaimer #1: I am a SysAdmin, not a developer. If you a proper
developer, what you see may cause you physical pain.

Disclaimer #2: My Gogs repo is behind my ADSL in rural France, be
patient and I withold the right to not respect any sort of SLA :-)
