D-Bus API bindings

+ + + +

Description

+ +

+ libvirt-dbus wraps libvirt API to provide a high-level object-oriented + API better suited for dbus-based applications. +

+ +

GIT source repository

+

+ The D-Bus bindings source code is maintained in a + git repository available on + libvirt.org: +

+ +
+git clone https://libvirt.org/git/libvirt-dbus.git
+
+ +

+ They can also be browsed online: +

+ +
+https://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt-dbus.git
+
+ +

Usage

+ +

+ libvirt-dbus exports libvirt API using D-Bus objects with methods and + properties described by interfaces. Currently only local connection + to libvirt is exported and the list of supported drivers depends + on the type of the bus connection (session or system). +

+ +

+ The name of the libvirt-dbus service is org.libvirt. + libvirt-dbus distributes an interface XML descriptions which can be + usually found at /usr/share/dbus-1/interfaces/. +

+ +

+ By default unprivileged user has access only to the session D-Bus + connection. In order to allow specific user "foo" to access the system + D-Bus connection you need to create a file + /etc/dbus-1/system.d/org.libvirt.conf that contains: +

+ +
+<?xml version="1.0"?>
+<!DOCTYPE busconfig PUBLIC "-//freedesktop//DTD D-BUS Bus Configuration 1.0//EN"
+ "http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/dbus/1.0/busconfig.dtd">
+
+<busconfig>
+
+  <policy user="foo">
+    <allow send_destination="org.libvirt"/>
+  </policy>
+
+</busconfig>
+
+ +

+ To get a list of supported drivers for the specific bus connection + you can run these commands (not all drivers may be available on + the host): +

+ +
+gdbus introspect --xml --session --dest org.libvirt --object-path /org/libvirt
+gdbus introspect --xml --system --dest org.libvirt --object-path /org/libvirt
+
+ +

+ Every object is introspectable so you can get a list of available + interfaces with methods, signals and properties running this command: +

+ +
+gdbus introspect --xml --system --dest org.libvirt --object-path /org/libvirt/QEMU
+
+ +

+ To get a list of domains for specific connection driver you can run + this command: +

+ +
+gdbus call --system --dest org.libvirt --object-path /org/libvirt/QEMU \
+    --method org.libvirt.Connect.ListDomains 0
