Re: [ovirt-users] Interest in contributing to oVirt
Hello Yaniv,
Thanks very much for the response. I am currently trying to develop a
proposal for this project but I have not yet been able to successfully
setup oVirt. I just realized I could not install the oVirt-engine an
Ubuntu 14, so I am currently trying to download and install Fedora 23,
where I intend to setup the oVirt-engine. I would then use another
machine with Ubuntu for the host.
Please with respect to this project I would like to know if I am also
required compile and install the source code for oVirt-engine or do I
only need to build and install ovirt4cli.
Thanks
Konrad

Hi Konrad,
I'm very happy to hear that and wish you good luck with the project.
I think it'd be best if you can begin with familiarizing yourself with
oVirt.
If you have few computers around, it should be fairly easy to set it up. If
you have a single computer, you can set up Lago[1] and ovirt-system-test[2]
to bring up an environment as well.
The (very basic) code for ovirt4cli is available on my github[3] - I have
just created a very basic framework as a proof of concept - feel free to
fork and modify it. Specifically, I think we should re-work it to share more
code with our Ansible code[4].
Let me know if there's anything I can help you with in the project!
Y.
