About the spice console..

[Kyran Storm]

So I gotta ask this regarding the Spice viewer things on proxmox.

so i select Spice for a VMs display output. and installed spice guest tools in windows in the VM. and i have Virt-viewer on my computer.

what would my VMs spice address be so that i can open up virt-viewer, type an ip address in and connect to the spice session, without having to download the virt file everytime i wanted to use it??

Hi,

Use bash script if you want. [0]
Or if you use Windows environment and know a little C++ or C# you could make an simple program to start SPICE

Also you can see here if you want use API is super handy [1]

know a little C++ or C# you

Python or maybe something WIndows native (not sure if it has anything powerful enough) would work too

The thing is, you want to authenticate the sessions, we have the spiceproxy for that, thus you need someone (user or script) to login over the API and get the spice access data for the proxy.

Okay so... I'm not that smart so is there a thing released to the public that I can make this work?

Maybe start to tell us what you even want to get to work, specifics..

You've been linked a full blown example in bash which does it, does that not work for you?

I want the spice viewer to work like microsoft RDP. Put an IP in. Hit connect, and bam, you got your own Vm spice thing.

I wouldnt even know how to implement a bash script in a windows VM..
