const uri = process.env.LIBVIRT_URI || "qemu:///system";
const hypervisor = new libvirt.Hypervisor({ uri });

(async () => {

    await hypervisor.connectOpen();

    // parse xml template
    const template = await domainDescFromXml("<domain>...</domain>");

    // build new domain description
    const domain = new DomainBuilder()
        .fromTemplate(template)

        .setName("test1")
        .setUUID("148d0864-2354-4c27-b82c-731bdd3f320c")

        .addDisk({
            type: "file", device: "disk",
            driver: { name: "qemu", type: "qcow2" },
            source: { file: "/home/leon/test1.img" },
            target: { dev: "vda", bus: "virtio" },
        })

        .addInterface({
            type: "network",
            source: { network: "default" },
            mac: { address: "52:54:00:8e:c6:5f" },
            model: { type: "virtio" },
        })

        .build();

    // define and boot domain
    const xml = domainDescToXml(domain);
    await hypervisor.domainCreateXML(xml);

    // list active domains
    const activeDomains = await hypervisor.connectListAllDomains(
            libvirt.ConnectListAllDomainsFlags.ACTIVE);

    // log active domain names
    const activeDomainNames = await Promise.all(activeDomains
        .map((domain) => hypervisor.domainGetName(domain)));
    console.log(activeDomainNames);

    await hypervisor.connectClose();

})();
