[Engine-devel] [Users] adding scripts

[Aditya Mamidwar]

Hey thanks on the previous issue.
Also is there a way i can access WebAdmin.Html to add custom buttons and make few tweaks for personal use?
I just cant find that file after using git.

if you are trying to hook into UI-specific events, it sounds 
like you will need to write an oVirt UI Plugin [1] in order to 
do that. However, I believe that the oVirt UI Plugins 
infrastructure doesn't support hooking to events such as "tab 
x was selected" and/or "button b was clicked". 
It does allow you to add new (custom) tabs/sub-tabs/buttons of 
your own, and there is a chance that it allows you to hook 
into events such as 'row x was selected in the grid'. 

@Vojtech will know better. Vojtech?

if you are trying to hook into engine events (e.g. you want to 
run a script every time a VM is started in oVirt, no matter if 
the user started it by clicking the 'run' button in the oVirt-
engine webadmin, or invoked a REST API request, or an SDK 
command), then it will require some sort of an "engine-plugin" 
infrastructure that we don't have at the moment AFAIK. 
there is a chance that for some of the events you will be able 
to utilize the VDSM hooks (at the Host level) [2].
