QMP
===
Package `qmp` enables interaction with QEMU instances via the QEMU Machine Protocol (QMP).
## Available Drivers
### Libvirt
If your environment is managed by Libvirt, QMP interaction must be proxied through the Libvirt daemon. This can be be done through two available drivers:
#### RPC
The RPC driver provides a pure Go implementation of Libvirt's RPC protocol.
```go
//conn, err := net.DialTimeout("unix", "/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock", 2*time.Second)
conn, err := net.DialTimeout("tcp", "192.168.1.1:16509", 2*time.Second)
monitor := libvirtrpc.New("stage-lb-1", conn)
```
#### virsh
A connection to the monitor socket is provided by proxing requests through the `virsh` executable.
```go
monitor, err := qmp.NewLibvirtMonitor("qemu:///system", "stage-lb-1")
```
### Socket
If your QEMU instances are not managed by libvirt, direct communication over its UNIX socket is available.
```go
monitor, err := qmp.NewSocketMonitor("unix", "/var/lib/qemu/example.monitor", 2*time.Second)
```
## Examples
Using the above to establish a new `qmp.Monitor`, the following examples provide a brief overview of QMP usage.
_error checking omitted for the sake of brevity._
### Command Execution
```go
type StatusResult struct {
ID string `json:"id"`
Return struct {
Running bool `json:"running"`
Singlestep bool `json:"singlestep"`
Status string `json:"status"`
} `json:"return"`
}
monitor.Connect()
defer monitor.Disconnect()
cmd := []byte(`{ "execute": "query-status" }`)
raw, _ := monitor.Run(cmd)
var result StatusResult
json.Unmarshal(raw, &result)
fmt.Println(result.Return.Status)
```
```
running
```
### Event Monitor
```go
monitor.Connect()
defer monitor.Disconnect()
stream, _ := monitor.Events()
for e := range stream {
log.Printf("EVENT: %s", e.Event)
}
```
```
$ virsh reboot example

EVENT: STOP
EVENT: RESET
EVENT: RESUME
EVENT: RESET
...
```
