# QEMU D-Bus display experiment
## Introduction
2023-03-21 09:55:40 +00:00
*WIP* Rust crates to interact with a ``-display dbus`` QEMU.
Some dependencies, such as RDW are also in development and unreleased.
## Features
Depending on what the VM exposes & supports, various interfaces are implemented:
- display, with optional DMABUF sharing
- display resize
- keyboard & mouse
- serial terminals
- QMP/HMP monitors
- audio playback & recording
- USB device redirection
- clipboard sharing
## Project organization
### qemu-display
This crate provides simple D-Bus interfaces through zbus, and some basic abstractions.
### qemu-rdw
This crate aims to provide Gtk+ 4 widget for a QEMU display, as well as
dialogs/widgets for USB redirection and other options or features.
Currently it's a demo app (run by default with `cargo run`).
It is also based on a *WIP* crate "RDW" (*Remote display/desktop widget*) to
provide a base widget for various remote display solutions (VNC, RDP, Spice
etc).
### qemu-vnc
A simple VNC server implementation.
### qemu-vte
A standalone VTE/Gtk+ 4 client, which should eventually be a consumable crate or
integrated with qemu-rdw.
## Build requirements
To build this project, you will need several system libraries. Here is the
current list of build dependencies on Fedora:
```sh
$ sudo dnf install cargo gcc usbredir-devel wayland-devel libxkbcommon-devel glib2-devel gtk4-devel gstreamer1-devel gstreamer1-plugins-base-devel
```
