Following my previous post about qemu/kvm setup, this is about pulumi/libvirt provider.

tasks⌗

  1. install pulumi
  2. bootstrap project
  3. test

1. install pulumi⌗ 

curl -fsSL https://get.pulumi.com | sh
source ~/.bashrc
pulumi version

# personal aliases
echo 'alias pp="pulumi up -y"'      >> ~/.bashrc
echo 'alias pd="pulumi destroy -y"' >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc

2. bootstrap project⌗

1. state, local⌗ 

PROJECT_NAME=kvm-deb-02
PULUMI_ROOT=~/PULUMI
PULUMI_STATE=${PULUMI_ROOT}/state/state-${PROJECT_NAME}

rm -rf ${PULUMI_ROOT}/${PROJECT_NAME} ${PULUMI_STATE}
mkdir -p            ${PULUMI_ROOT}/${PROJECT_NAME}
cd                  ${PULUMI_ROOT}/${PROJECT_NAME}
mkdir               ${PULUMI_STATE}
pulumi login file://${PULUMI_STATE}

2. start project⌗ 

pulumi new python \
  --description "Creates a Ubuntu 20.04 VM via libvirt" \
  --name ${PROJECT_NAME} \
  --stack dev

source venv/bin/activate
export PULUMI_CONFIG_PASSPHRASE=1
pip install pulumi_libvirt

KVM_HOST=kvm-deb-02
ssh-copy-id root@${KVM_HOST}
pulumi config set libvirt:uri qemu+ssh://root@${KVM_HOST}/system

vi __main__.py

"""A Python Pulumi program"""

import pulumi_libvirt as libvirt

domain = libvirt.Domain("ubuntu")

This will create a dummy virtual machine, main purpose is to confirm that communication is working fine.

3. test⌗

in my hypervisor, run:

watch virsh list --all

and in my workstation, run:

pulumi up

then check output of both terminals, then destroy it

pulumi destroy
