## Installation

```bash
pip install syzqemuctl
```

## Requirements

```bash
python3.8+ qemu screen ssh  
```

## Configuration

The configuration file is stored in `~/.config/syzqemuctl/config.json`. It contains:
- Images home directory path
- Default VM settings

## Usage

### ⭐ As a command-line tool (CLI)

You can check the usage of `syzqemuctl` or `syzqemuctl CMD` by adding `--help`. Here are some common uses:

1. Initialize syzqemuctl:
```bash
syzqemuctl init --images-home /path/to/images
```

2. Create a new VM:
```bash
syzqemuctl create my-vm [--size 5120]   # --size INT for specifying the VM disk size (5GB by default)
```

3. Run the VM:
```bash
syzqemuctl run my-vm --kernel /path/to/kernel
```

4. Check VM status:
```bash
syzqemuctl status my-vm
```

5. Copy files/dir to/from VM:
```bash
syzqemuctl cp local_file my-vm:/remote/path  # Copy to VM
syzqemuctl cp my-vm:/remote/file local_path  # Copy from VM

syzqemuctl cp local_dir my-vm:/remote/       # Copy local_dir to VM
syzqemuctl cp local_dir/ my-vm:/remote/      # Copy local_dir/* to VM

```

6. Execute commands in VM:
```bash
syzqemuctl exec my-vm "uname -a" # You'd better wrap the command with double quotes
```

7. Stop the VM:
```bash
syzqemuctl stop my-vm
```

8. Restart the VM:
```bash
syzqemuctl restart my-vm
```

9. List all VMs:
```bash
syzqemuctl list
```

10. Delete the VM:
```bash
syzqemuctl delete my-vm
```

### ⭐ As a Python package (API)

```python
from syzqemuctl import global_conf, ImageManager, VM

images_home = "/path/to/images_home"
global_conf.initialize(images_home, force=False) # This could be skipped if you have run `syzqemuctl init --images-home=IMAGES_HOME` in CLI
manager = ImageManager(images_home)
manager.initialize(force=False)
manager.create("my-vm")

# Or just direct specify a created VM and
vm = VM("/path/to/images_home/my-vm")
vm.start(kernel="/path/to/kernel")

# Wait several minutes for the VM to be ready, or you can check by:
if vm.is_ready():
    pass

# Or use this API to wait:
if vm.wait_until_ready(timeout=180, interval=60):
    pass

# You need to use this context manager to auto-connect/disconnect
with vm:
    vm.copy_to_vm("/path/to/local/file", "/path/to/vm/remote/file")
    stdout, stderr = vm.execute("uname -a")
    print(f"stdout: {stdout}\nstderr: {stderr}")
```
