This is a simple php libvirt manager

It can start, shutdown, destory, get the virtual machines list or get the information for any virtual machine.

This project is to make it easier for developers to manage virtual machines.

You need install php_ssh2 module to use this manager.

Example code for connect a server

include("libvirt/libvirt.php");
$Libvirt = new Libvirt();
$Libvirt->setHost("192.168.3.181", 22, "/data/libvirt/");
$Libvirt->connect("root", "123456");

This code will connect to your server using SSH, make sure your server sshd service is running.

The 192.168.3.181 is your server hostname, 22 is your server port, and /data/libvirt/ is your libvirt data save path.

For authenticate, use username and password, the username and password in example code is root and 123456.

Example code for create a virtual machine

$Libvirt->createDisk("Test", "qcow2", "30G");
$Libvirt->createVMXML("Test", 2, 2048576, "/data/libvirt/images/Test/Test.qcow2", "/data/iso/CentOS-7-x86_64-Minimal-1804.iso", "cdrom", "network", "default", $Libvirt->randomMac(), "virbr0", 0, 0, 5902);
