I built this API, to simplify a lot of my proxmox daily usage.


I need to easily switch my USB devices beetween my VMs, this feature is related to the qEmu monitor entry point. This part of the API is only integrated as a function(string) => promise<string>, I have a lot of work to make it easy to use. So I'm going to implement some helper to hotplug USB devices.

if you know some existing GUI / client for qEmu Monitor, or any point of view about a common usage of qEmu Monitor, let me known.
 
How known how to liste USB connected on a qEmu ? By using info usb

I know how to list host USB devices, to connect them, disconnect them but not to list them.
all the information I found on this are here:
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/USB_Devices_in_Virtual_Machines#Assign_Devices_to_an_already_Running_VM

first working code sample to connect mouse and keyboard to VM 2000:
const qmMonitor = new QmMonitor(proxmox, node, vmid);
let mouses = await qmMonitor.infoUsbhost({name: /mouse/i});
if (mouses.length)
qmMonitor.deviceAdd('mouse', mouses[0]);

let keyboards = await qmMonitor.infoUsbhost({name: /KB/});
if (keyboards.length)
qmMonitor.deviceAdd('keyboard', keyboards[0]);
