These manual pages have for a very long time 'lived' in the top
source directory.
Clean up this situation by moving those manual pages (plus associated
generated files) into the src/ and fish/ subdirectories respectively.

Use this program as a convenient way to list the filesystems
available in a disk image or libvirt guest.
Example:
$ virt-list-filesystems /dev/vg_trick/Debian5x64
/dev/debian5x64/home
/dev/debian5x64/root
/dev/debian5x64/tmp
/dev/debian5x64/usr
/dev/debian5x64/var
/dev/sda1
This is designed to make it easier for novices to use guestfish
and guestmount. In particular with guestmount this acts as a way
to get a list of filesystems to use with the '-m' option. ie:
$ virt-list-filesystems unknowndisk.img
/dev/sda1
/dev/sda2
$ guestmount -a unknowndisk.img -m /dev/sda1 /mnt

This commit introduces a generic partition creation interface
which should be future-proof and extensible, and partially
replaces the old sfdisk-based interface.
The implementation is based on parted but is hopefully not too
dependent on the particulars of parted.
The following new calls are introduced:
guestfs_part_init:
Initialize a disk with a partition table. Unlike the sfdisk-
based interface, we also support GPT and other partition
types, which is essential to scale to devices larger than 2TB.
guestfs_part_add: Add a partition to an existing disk.
guestfs_part_disk:
Convenience function which combines part_init & part_add,
creating a single partition that covers the whole disk.
guestfs_part_set_bootable:
guestfs_part_set_name:
Set various aspects of existing partitions.
guestfs_part_list:
List partitions on a device. This returns a programming-friendly
list of partition structs (in contrast to sfdisk-l which cannot
be parsed).
guestfs_part_get_parttype:
Return the partition table type, eg. "msdos" or "gpt".
The following calls are planned, but not added currently:
guestfs_part_get_bootable
guestfs_part_get_name
guestfs_part_set_type
guestfs_part_get_type

With sparse you can make sparse files, which is fun because you
can experiment with really large devices:
><fs> sparse /tmp/test.img 100G
><fs> run
><fs> sfdiskM /dev/vda ,
><fs> mkfs ext2 /dev/vda1 # very long pause here ...
><fs> mount /dev/vda1 /
To see the real (ie. allocated) size of the sparse file, use the du
command, eg:
><fs> !du -h /tmp/test.img
1.6G -rw-rw-r-- 1 rjones rjones 100G 2009-11-04 17:40 /tmp/test.img

Add a win: prefix for path arguments in guestfish:
><fs> file win:c:\windows\system32\config\system.log
MS Windows registry file, NT/2000 or above

This tool makes available the functionality of "ls", "ll", and "find"
in a slightly simpler to use form.
Examples:
virt-ls -l myguest /tmp
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
This adds a new tool call virt-tar which is a general purpose
archive and uploading tool. It doesn't add any functionality
which wasn't previously possible using guestfish, but makes it
simpler to access for some users.
Examples:
virt-tar -zx myguest /home home.tar.gz
virt-tar -zu myguest uploadstuff.tar.gz /tmp

This change adds the ability to group entries in a string list with single
quotes. So the string:
"'foo bar'"
becomes 1 token rather than 2. Consequently single quotes must now be escaped:
"\'"
resolves to a literal single quote.
Incidentally, this change also alters another, probably unintentional behaviour
of the previous implementation, in that tokens are separated by any amount of
whitespace rather than a single whitespace character. I.e.:
"a b"
resolves to:
'a' 'b'
rather than:
'a' '' 'b'
That last syntax can be used if an empty argument is still desired. Whitespace
is now also defined to include tabs.
parse_string_list can also now fail if it contains an unmatched open quote.

Enable this by calling guestfs_trace (handle, 1) or by
setting the LIBGUESTFS_TRACE=1 environment variable.

guestfish --listen necessarily redirects its stdout to /dev/null so as not to
interfere with eval. The remote protocol doesn't contain any other provision for
collecting stdout for the caller, so executing guestfish --remote will never
generate any output.
This patch fixes that by forwarding the caller's STDOUT to the listener over the
unix socket connection. The listener redirects its STDOUT to the caller's STDOUT
for the duration of the command, then closes it again.

This allows you to override the appliance kernel with an easy

This commit adds tilde expansion for local users in guestfish:
><fs> echo "~"
~
><fs> echo ~
/home/rjones
><fs> echo ~foo
~foo
><fs> echo ~rjones/bar
/home/rjones/bar
><fs> echo ~roo
~roo
><fs> echo ~root/foo
/root/foo
><fs> echo ~root
/root

The use case is to have a long-running guestfish process in
a shell script, and thus to avoid the overhead of starting
guestfish each time. Do:
eval `guestfish --listen`
guestfish --remote somecmd
guestfish --remote someothercmd
guestfish --remote exit
This patch also supports having multiple guestfish processes
at the same time.
The protocol is simple XDR messages over a Unix domain socket.

You can invoke guestfish with:
guestfish -i libvirt-domain
guestfish -i disk-image(s)
|

New '-f' option allows scripts to be written using:
#!/usr/bin/guestfish -f
