Hy guys,
after some headache I was able to use cloud-init via python-sdk (thanks
to Juan), and I hope no one will fight anymore with them :D, so if you
want I think it's better to document with a simple example it's use on
web page available at:
http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Cloud-Init_Integration
below simple change that you can integrate on web page:
- fix api design example of usage for files xml, on the web page you can
find:
...
<files>
<file>
<name>/tmp/testFile1.txt</name>
<content>temp content</content>
<type>PLAINTEXT</type>
</file>
</files>
...
but on params.File there aren't any "type" parameter only "type_"
so you
can change xml with:
...
<files>
<file>
<name>/tmp/testFile1.txt</name>
<content>temp content</content>
<type_>PLAINTEXT</type_>
</file>
</files>
...
This won't be correct, the correct XML tag name is "type", as in the
example in the web page. It is not good idea to use this as a parmeter
in python because it hides the "type" builtin function. That is why we
renamed it to "type_".
- insert an example of using cloud-init via python-sdk (I hope
java-sdk
haven't big differences).
for this you can insert on web page an example of setting via
cloud-init: hostname, reset root password and write a simple text file,
and finally simple python code is:
...
scontent = "write_files:\n- content: |\n #simple file\n
PIPPO=\"ciao\"\n path: /etc/pippo.txt"
action = params.Action(
vm=params.VM(
initialization=params.Initialization(
cloud_init=params.CloudInit(
host=params.Host(address="rheltest029"),
users=params.Users(
user=[params.User(user_name="root", password="pippolo")]
),
files=params.Files(
file=[params.File(name="/etc/pippo.txt", content=scontent,
type_="PLAINTEXT")]
)
)
)
)
)
vm.start( action )
...
I think that you can edit that page and add this Python snippet. If you
don't have an account for the wiki you can request one here:
http://www.ovirt.org/Special:RequestAccount
And if you want you can also submit a patch for the ovirt-engine-sdk
project, adding your script in the (not yet existing) examples directory.
