Molecule libvirt-ng is a `Molecule <https://molecule.readthedocs.io/>`_ driver
for provisioning test VMs via libvirt/QEMU/KVM.

This is a modernized fork of the archived
`molecule-libvirt <https://github.com/ansible-community/molecule-libvirt>`_
plugin, updated for current versions of Molecule and Ansible.

.. _requirements:

Requirements
============

* Python >= 3.10
* Molecule >= 24.2.0
* Ansible >= 2.16
* A working libvirt/QEMU/KVM setup on the host
* ``libvirt-python`` (system package or built from source with ``pkg-config`` and libvirt headers)
* ``virt-resize`` from ``guestfs-tools`` (for disk resizing)

Required Ansible collections (installed automatically via ``test_requirements.yml``):

* ``community.libvirt``
* ``community.crypto``
* ``community.general``
* ``ansible.posix``
* ``ansible.utils``

.. _quickstart:

Quickstart
==========

Installation
------------

.. code-block:: bash

   pip install molecule-libvirt-ng

You also need ``libvirt-python`` which requires system libvirt headers:

.. code-block:: bash

   # Debian/Ubuntu
   sudo apt install libvirt-dev pkg-config python3-dev

   # RHEL/Fedora
   sudo dnf install libvirt-devel pkg-config python3-devel

   pip install libvirt-python

Install the required Ansible collections:

.. code-block:: bash

   ansible-galaxy collection install -r test_requirements.yml

Example
-------

Create a ``molecule/default/molecule.yml`` in your Ansible role:

.. code-block:: yaml

   ---
   driver:
     name: libvirt

   platforms:
     - name: debian12-test
       image_url: "https://cloud.debian.org/images/cloud/bookworm/latest/debian-12-genericcloud-amd64.qcow2"
       memory_size: 2
       vcpu: 2
       disk_size: "10G"
       qemu_user: "qemu"

   provisioner:
     name: ansible

   verifier:
     name: ansible

Then run:

.. code-block:: bash

   molecule test

.. _platform-parameters:

Platform Parameters
===================

Required
--------

``image_url``
   URL to a cloud image (qcow2 format). Defaults to Debian 12 genericcloud.

Optional
--------

``memory_size``
   RAM in GB. Default: **1**.

``vcpu``
   Number of virtual CPUs. Default: **1**.

``disk_size``
   Disk size (qemu-img format). Default: **15G**.

``ssh_port``
   SSH port on the guest. Default: **22**.

``cpu_model``
   CPU model requested by the guest. Default: **qemu64**.

``arch``
   CPU architecture. Default: **x86_64**.

``timezone``
   VM timezone. Default: **America/Toronto**.

``qemu_user``
   QEMU process user for filesystem ACLs. Varies by distro:

   * RHEL/Fedora: **qemu** (default)
   * Debian/Ubuntu: **libvirt-qemu**
   * NixOS: **root**

``image_volume``
   Partition to expand with virt-resize. Default: **/dev/sda1**.

``network_name``
   Use an existing libvirt network instead of creating a molecule-managed one.

``bridge_name``
   Use an existing bridge on a remote host. Makes the VM reachable via ARP.

``libvirt_host`` and ``libvirt_user``
   Provision VMs on a remote libvirt host via ``qemu+ssh://``.

Network Parameters
------------------

These apply when molecule manages its own network (no ``network_name`` or ``bridge_name``):

``molecule_bridge``
   Bridge interface name. Default: **molecule-br0**.

``molecule_network_cidr``
   IP range for the molecule network. Default: **10.10.10.0/24**.
