Installation

To get the latest released version of pyvbox from PyPI run the following:: Simply run the following:

$ pip install pyvbox

or to install the latest development version from GitHub:

$ git clone https://github.com/mjdorma/pyvbox
$ cd pyvbox
$ python setup.py install

Getting Started

Exploring the library:

> ipython
In [1]: import virtualbox

In [2]: virtualbox?

In [3]: virtualbox.VirtualBox?

In [4]: virtualbox.library.IMachine?

In [5]: virtualbox.library.MachineState?

In [6]: virtualbox.library.MachineState.teleported?

Listing machines:

> ipython
In [1]: import virtualbox

In [2]: vbox = virtualbox.VirtualBox()

In [3]: print("VM(s):\n + %s" % "\n + ".join([vm.name for vm in vbox.machines]))
VM(s):
 + filestore
 + xpsp3
 + win7
 + win8
 + test_vm

Launch machine, take a screen shot, stop machine:

> ipython
In [1]: import virtualbox

In [2]: vbox = virtualbox.VirtualBox()

In [3]: session = virtualbox.Session()

In [4]: vm = vbox.find_machine('test_vm')

In [5]: progress = vm.launch_vm_process(session, 'gui', '')

In [6]: h, w, _, _, _, _ = session.console.display.get_screen_resolution(0)

In [7]: png = session.console.display.take_screen_shot_to_array(0, h, w, virtualbox.library.BitmapFormat.png)

In [8]: with open('screenshot.png', 'wb') as f:
  ....:     f.write(png)

In [9]: print(session.state)
Locked

In [10]: session.state
Out[10]: SessionState(2)

In [11]: session.state >= 2
Out[11]: True

In [12]: session.console.power_down()

Write text into a window on a running machine:

> ipython
In [1]: import virtualbox

In [2]: vbox = virtualbox.VirtualBox()

In [3]: vm = vbox.find_machine('test_vm')

In [4]: session = vm.create_session()

In [5]: session.console.keyboard.put_keys("Q: 'You want control?'\nA: 'Yes, but just a tad...'")

Execute a command in the guest:

> ipython
In [1]: import virtualbox

In [2]: vbox = virtualbox.VirtualBox()

In [3]: vm = vbox.find_machine('test_vm')

In [4]: session = vm.create_session()

In [5]: gs = session.console.guest.create_session('Michael Dorman', 'password')

In [6]: process, stdout, stderr = gs.execute('C:\\Windows\\System32\\cmd.exe', ['/C', 'tasklist'])

In [7]: print stdout

Using context to manage opened sessions and locks:

> ipython
In [1]: import virtualbox

In [2]: vbox = virtualbox.VirtualBox()

In [3]: vm = vbox.find_machine('test_vm')

In [4]: with vm.create_session() as session:
   ...:     with session.console.guest.create_session('Michael Dorman', 'password') as gs:
   ...:         print(gs.directory_exists("C:\\Windows"))
   ...:
True

On an already running VM, register to receive on guest keyboard events:

>ipython
In [1]: from virtualbox import library

In [2]: import virtualbox

In [3]: vbox = virtualbox.VirtualBox()

In [4]: vm = vbox.find_machine('test_vm')

In [5]: s = vm.create_session()

In [6]: def test(a):
   ...:     print(a.scancodes)
   ...:

In [7]: s.console.keyboard.set_on_guest_keyboard(test)

Issues

Source code for pyvbox is hosted on GitHub. Please file bug reports with GitHub's issues system.

Compatibility

pyvbox utilises the VirtualBox project's vboxapi to gain access to the underlying COM API primitives. Therefore, pyvbox is compatible on systems which have a running vboxapi.
