It requires Python 3.6+ and has +no other dependencies. + +This library can be used for communicating with QEMU emulators or with +the QEMU Guest Agent (QGA), QEMU Storage Daemon (QSD) or any other +utility or application that speaks QMP. + +This library makes as little assumptions as possible about the actual +version or what type of endpoint it will be communicating with; +i.e. this library does not contain command definitions and does not seek +to be an SDK or a replacement for tools like libvirt/virsh. It is +"simply" the protocol (QMP) and not the vocabulary (QAPI). It is up to +the programmer (you!) to know which commands and arguments you want to +send. + + +Who is this library for? +------------------------ + +It is firstly for developers of QEMU themselves; as the test +infrastructure of QEMU itself needs a convenient and scriptable +interface for testing QEMU. This library was split out of the QEMU +source tree in order to share a reference version of a QMP library that +was usable both within and outside of the QEMU source tree. + +Second, it's for those who are developing *for* QEMU by adding new +architectures, devices, or functionality; as well as targeting those who +are developing *with* QEMU, i.e. developers working on integrating QEMU +features into other projects such as libvirt, kubevirt, kata +containers, etc. Occasionally, using existing VM management stacks that +integrate QEMU+kvm can make developing, testing, and debugging features +difficult and more 'raw' access is required. This library is for you. + +Lastly, it's for power users who already use QEMU directly without the +aid of libvirt because they require the raw control and power this +affords them. + + +Who is this library NOT for? +---------------------------- + +It is not designed for anyone looking for a turn-key solution for VM +management. QEMU is a low-level component that resembles a swiss army +knife with 5,000 attachments. This library does not manage that +complexity at all and is largely "QEMU ignorant", and so it is not a +replacement for projects like libvirt, virtual machine manager, boxes, +etc. + + +Installing +---------- + +This package can be installed with pip using ``pip3 install qemu.qmp``. + + +Usage +----- + +At its simplest, script-style usage looks like this:: + + from qemu.qmp import QMPClient + + qmp = QMPClient('my-vm-nickname') + await qmp.connect('/path/to/qmp.sockfile') + + res = await qmp.execute('query-status') + print(f"VM status: {res['status']}") + + await qmp.disconnect() + + +The above script will connect to the UNIX socket located at +``/path/to/qmp.sockfile`` and query the VM's runstate and print it out +to the terminal. + +For more complex usages, especially those that make full advantage of +monitoring asynchronous events; refer to the online documentation or +type ``help(qemu.qmp)`` in your Python terminal of choice. + + +Contributing +------------ + +Contributions are quite welcome! Please file bugs using the `GitLab +issue tracker `_. This +project will accept GitLab merge requests, but due to the close +association with the QEMU project, there are some additional guidelines: + +1. Please use the "Signed-off-by" tag in your commit messages. See + https://wiki.linuxfoundation.org/dco for more information on this + requirement. + +2. This repository won't squash merge requests into a single commit on + pull; each commit should seek to be self-contained (within reason). + +3. Owing to the above, each commit sent as part of a merge request + should not introduce any temporary regressions, even if fixed later + in the same merge request. This is done to preserve bisectability. + +4. Please associate every merge request with at least one GitLab + issue. This helps with generating Changelog text and staying + organized. Thank you 🙇 + + +Developing +^^^^^^^^^^ + +Optional packages necessary for running code quality analysis for this +package can be installed with the optional dependency group "devel": +``pip install qemu.qmp[devel]``. + +``make develop`` can be used to install this package in editable mode +(to the current environment) *and* bring in testing dependencies in one +command. + +``make check`` can be used to run the available tests. Consult ``make +help`` for other targets and tests that make sense for different +occasions. (Personally: I run ``make check-tox && make check-pipenv`` +locally before submitting to GitLab CI as my due diligence.) + + +Changelog +--------- + +- No public release yet. diff --git a/setup.cfg b/setup.cfg index 0f14bda..f4a02d6 100644 --- a/setup.cfg +++ b/setup.cfg @@ -10,7 +10,7 @@ url = https://gitlab.com/jsnow/qemu.qmp download_url = https://gitlab.com/jsnow/qemu.qmp/-/packages # NOTE: Remember to update the commit message when changing these URLs. description = QEMU Monitor Protocol library. -long_description = file:PACKAGE.rst +long_description = file:README.rst long_description_content_type = text/x-rst classifiers = Development Status :: 3 - Alpha -- 2.31.1
