virt-bootstrap is a tool providing an easy way to setup the root
file system for libvirt-based containers.
It allows to use either a tarball containing the file system or
an image on a docker registry and unpacks it either as a folder
or in a qcow2 image with backing chains to mimic the docker layers.
Dependencies
------------
* python 2 or 3
* skopeo
* virt-sandbox
* libguestfs python binding
* python passlib module
* python mock module (for tests only)
Hacking
-------
To test changes without installing the package in your machine,
use the run script. For example to run virt-bootstrap, use a command
like the following one:
./run src/virtBootstrap/virt_bootstrap.py --help
The following commands will be useful for anyone writing patches:
./setup.py test # Run local unit test suite
./setup.py pylint # Run a pylint script against the codebase
Any patches shouldn't change the output of 'test' or 'pylint'. The 'pylint' requires `pylint` and `pycodestyle` to be installed.
If [coverage](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/coverage/) is installed, you can generate report using:
coverage run --source=virtBootstrap ./setup.py test
