Hi,

Thanks for the great library. Btw, is there any examples of how to start a new machine? Is starting new machine is the same API with NewDomain? What about image configuration, etc?

Thank you

The short answer is no, but if your virtual machine is defined as a libvirt domain, you could use go-libvirt to start it and use go-qemu to communicate directly with it.

There's a deceptive amount of complexity to parameterizing and starting a QEMU VM and we're very grateful to libvirt, virt-install, and virt-manager for managing that complexity for us.
