python vbox_用python从命令行控制VirtualBox

我发现我可以使用以下函数来查找VM是否正在运行，将VM还原到特定的快照，并按名称启动VM。在from subprocess import Popen, PIPE

def running_vms():

"""

Return list of running vms

"""

f = Popen(r'vboxmanage nologo list runningvms', stdout=PIPE).stdout

data = [ eachLine.strip() for eachLine in f ]

return data

def restore_vm(name='', snapshot=''):

"""

Restore VM to specific snapshot uuid

name = VM Name

snapshot = uuid of snapshot (uuid can be found in the xml file of your machines folder)

"""

command = r'vboxmanage nologo snapshot %s restore %s' % (name,snapshot)

f = Popen(command, stdout=PIPE).stdout

data = [ eachLine.strip() for eachLine in f ]

return data

def launch_vm(name=''):

"""

Launch VM

name = VM Name

"""

command = r'vboxmanage nologo startvm %s ' % name

f = Popen(command, stdout=PIPE).stdout

data = [ eachLine.strip() for eachLine in f ]

return data
