Libvirt::event_invoke_handle_callback(handle, fd, events, opaque) → Qnil click to toggle source

Unlike most of the other functions in the ruby-libvirt bindings, this one does not directly correspond to a libvirt API function. Instead, this module method (and event_invoke_timeout_callback) are meant to be called when there is an event of interest to libvirt on one of the file descriptors that libvirt uses. The application is notified of the file descriptors that libvirt uses via the callbacks from Libvirt::event_register_impl. When there is an event of interest, the application must call event_invoke_timeout_callback to ensure proper operation.

Libvirt::event_invoke_handle_callback takes 4 arguments:

handle - an application specific handle ID. This can be any integer, but must be unique from all other libvirt handles in the application.

fd - the file descriptor of interest. This was given to the application as a callback to add_handle of Libvirt::event_register_impl

events - the events that have occured on the fd. Note that the events are libvirt specific, and are some combination of Libvirt::EVENT_HANDLE_READABLE, Libvirt::EVENT_HANDLE_WRITABLE, Libvirt::EVENT_HANDLE_ERROR, Libvirt::EVENT_HANDLE_HANGUP. To notify libvirt of more than one event at a time, these values should be logically OR'ed together.

opaque - the opaque data passed from libvirt during the Libvirt::event_register_impl add_handle callback. To ensure proper operation this data must be passed through to event_invoke_handle_callback without modification.

Libvirt::event_invoke_timeout_callback(timer, opaque) → Qnil click to toggle source

Unlike most of the other functions in the ruby-libvirt bindings, this one does not directly correspond to a libvirt API function. Instead, this module method (and event_invoke_handle_callback) are meant to be called when there is a timeout of interest to libvirt. The application is notified of the timers that libvirt uses via the callbacks from Libvirt::event_register_impl. When a timeout expires, the application must call event_invoke_timeout_callback to ensure proper operation.

Libvirt::event_invoke_timeout_callback takes 2 arguments:

handle - an application specific timer ID. This can be any integer, but must be unique from all other libvirt timers in the application.

opaque - the opaque data passed from libvirt during the Libvirt::event_register_impl add_handle callback. To ensure proper operation this data must be passed through to event_invoke_handle_callback without modification.

    void *op;
    VALUE libvirt_cb, libvirt_opaque;

    }

}
Libvirt::event_register_impl(add_handle=nil, update_handle=nil, remove_handle=nil, add_timeout=nil, update_timeout=nil, remove_timeout=nil) → Qnil click to toggle source

Call virEventRegisterImpl to register callback handlers for handles and timeouts. These handles and timeouts are used as part of the libvirt infrastructure for generating domain events. Each callback must be a Symbol (that is the name of a method to callback), a Proc, or nil (to disable the callback). In the end-user application program, these callbacks are typically used to track the file descriptors or timers that libvirt is interested in (and is intended to be integrated into the “main loop” of a UI program). The individual callbacks will be given a certain number of arguments, and must return certain values. Those arguments and return types are:

add_handle(fd, events, opaque) => Fixnum

update_handle(handleID, event) => nil

remove_handle(handleID) => opaque data from add_handle

add_timeout(interval, opaque) => Fixnum

update_timeout(timerID, timeout) => nil

remove_timeout(timerID) => opaque data from add_timeout

Any arguments marked as “opaque” must be accepted from the library and saved without modification. The values passed to the callbacks are meant to be passed to the event_invoke_handle_callback and event_invoke_timeout_callback module methods; see the documentation for those methods for more details.

Libvirt::open(uri=nil) → Libvirt::Connect click to toggle source

Call virConnectOpen to open a connection to a URL.

Libvirt::open_auth(uri=nil, credlist=nil, userdata=nil, flags=0) {|...| authentication block} → Libvirt::Connect click to toggle source

Call virConnectOpenAuth to open a connection to a libvirt URI, with a possible authentication block. If an authentication block is desired, then credlist should be an array that specifies which credentials the authentication block is willing to support; the full list is available at libvirt.org/html/libvirt-libvirt.html#virConnectCredentialType. If userdata is not nil and an authentication block is given, userdata will be passed unaltered into the authentication block. The flags parameter controls how to open connection. The only options currently available for flags are 0 for a read/write connection and Libvirt::CONNECT_RO for a read-only connection.

If the credlist is not empty, and an authentication block is given, the authentication block will be called once for each credential necessary to complete the authentication. The authentication block will be passed a single parameter, which is a hash of values containing information necessary to complete authentication. This hash contains 5 elements:

type - the type of credential to be examined

prompt - a suggested prompt to show to the user

challenge - any additional challenge information

defresult - a default result to use if credentials could not be obtained

userdata - the userdata passed into open_auth initially

The authentication block should return the result of collecting the information; these results will then be sent to libvirt for authentication.
