Hello, I'm trying to follow http://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/infra/python-sdk/ and I'm successfully discovering Python + oVirt SDK on CentOS. I'd like to do the same on Ubuntu, but the instructions seem incomplete : " easy_install ovirt-engine-sdk-python " is working, but "import ovirtsdk" doen't give anything. " apt-get install python-lxml cd ovirt-engine-sdk python setup.py install " is wrong because the "cd" isn't going anywhere, obviously. What am I missing? -- Nicolas ECARNOT

Note that the wiki page is about SDK version 3, which will be deprecated in 4.2. When you run 'easy_install ovirt-engine-sdk-python' it will install Python SDK version 4, which is different from SDK version 3. You may find few examples of Python SDK version 4 here: https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-engine-sdk/tree/master/sdk/examples
" apt-get install python-lxml cd ovirt-engine-sdk python setup.py install "
is wrong because the "cd" isn't going anywhere, obviously.

You're right, and I haven't noticed : import ovirtsdk4 is working.

https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-engine-sdk/tree/master/sdk/examples
Yes, this list of examples is a treasure, and I'm grateful to the maintainers. Alas, though we already have one DC in V4, most of our production DCs are still in V3 for one year, and I have to maintain them. So far, I have no clue how to add ovirtsdk v3 to my Ubuntu. Another point : is the compatibility between ovirtsdk and oVirt completely obvious (ie 3 -> 3 and 4 -> 4), or is there any kind of backward compatibility? -- Nicolas ECARNOT

You just need to specify which version you would like to install, in your case: easy_install ovirt-engine-sdk-python==3.6.9.2
Another point : is the compatibility between ovirtsdk and oVirt completely obvious (ie 3 -> 3 and 4 -> 4), or is there any kind of backward compatibility?
Unfortunatelly no, there is no backward compatibility between SDK v3 and v4.

Just to clarify this: 1. Version 3 of the SDK only works with version 3 of the API. 2. Version 4 of the SDK only works with version 4 of the API. 3. Version 3 of the engine only supports version 3 of the API. 4. Versions 4.0 and 4.1 of the engine support both version 3 and 4 of the API. This means that with version 4 of the engine you can use both versions of the SDK. This will change with version 4.2 of the engine. There we will remove support for version 3 of the API, so you will need to use version 4 of the SDK.
