What is ruby-libvirt?

ruby-libvirt provides Ruby bindings for libvirt. With that you can use libvirt directly from your Ruby programs:

   require 'libvirt'

   conn = Libvirt::open("qemu:///system")
   puts conn.capabilities

   conn.create_domain_linux(File.read("domain.xml"))

   dom = conn.lookup_domain_by_name("mydomain")
   dom.suspend
   dom.resume
   puts dom.xml_desc
