cl-virtualboxControl VirtualBox from Common Lisp
Fernando Borretti
MIT
‘cl-virtualbox‘ is a library that allows you to control VirtualBox from Common
Lisp, by calling the ‘vboxmanage‘ command.
# Usage
## Listing VMs
* ‘list-vms ()‘: Return a list of plists with the :name and :uuid of every
virtual machine.
* ‘list-running-vms ()‘: Like ‘list-vms‘, but only return the VMs that are
running.
Examples:
~~~lisp
virtualbox> (list-vms)
((:uuid "68fdde1a-a009-4c6f-af6e-250ef879e3e7" :name
"crane_ubuntu_1410013141185_11153")
(:uuid "b0ebec92-85cb-408c-b32c-c969e6392d5f" :name
"vm_ubuntu_1410966111913_95217")
(:uuid "9ad98045-5109-4233-8b82-4c9a49b4cab7" :name
"trivial-ssh_default_1411575480546_50302")
(:uuid "5d287f3c-9b17-4a66-990a-80d4db3167ae" :name "windows"))
virtualbox> (list-running-vms)
nil
~~~
## Finding VMs
* ‘find-by-name (name)‘: Find a virtual machine by name.
* ‘find-by-uuid (uuid)‘: Find a virtual machine by UUID.
Examples:
~~~lisp
virtualbox> (find-by-name "crane_ubuntu_1410013141185_11153")
(:uuid "68fdde1a-a009-4c6f-af6e-250ef879e3e7" :name
"crane_ubuntu_1410013141185_11153")
virtualbox> (find-by-uuid "9ad98045-5109-4233-8b82-4c9a49b4cab7")
(:uuid "9ad98045-5109-4233-8b82-4c9a49b4cab7" :name
"trivial-ssh_default_1411575480546_50302")

## Creating and Modifying VMs
* ‘create-vm (name)‘: Create a new virtual machine named ‘name‘.
* ‘set-vm-memory (name memory)‘: Set the VM’s memory (In megabytes)
* ‘set-vm-vram (name memory)‘: The the VM’s video memory (In megabytes).
* ‘set-vm-cpu-count (name count)‘: Set the number of virtual CPUs the VM has.
* ‘set-vm-acpi (name state)‘: Turn ACPI support on/off.
* ‘set-vm-ioapic (name state)‘: Turn IOAPIC support on/off.
* ‘set-vm-pae (name state)‘: Enable/disable PAE.
* ‘set-vm-longmode (name state)‘: Enable/disable longmode.
* ‘set-vm-hpet (name state)‘: Enable/disable the High-Precision Event Timer
(HPET).
* ‘set-vm-3d-acceleration (name state)‘: Enable/disable 3D acceleration.
## Network Configuration
* ‘map-vm-ports (name host-port guest-port)‘: Map TCP traffic from ‘host-port‘
to ‘guest-ip:guest-port‘ in the guest.
## Controlling VM State
* ‘start-vm (name &key (type headless))‘: Start the virtual machine.
* ‘pause-vm (name)‘: Pause the virtual machine.
* ‘resume-vm (name)‘: Resume the virtual machine after pausing it.
* ‘cold-reboot-vm (name)‘: Reboot the virtual machine.
* ‘poweroff-vm (name)‘: Power off the virtual machine.
## Managing Hard Drives
* ‘create-hd (path &key size (format vdi))‘: Create a virtual hard drive on ‘path‘, with size ‘size‘ (In megabytes) and type ‘type‘ (:vdi by default).
## Managing DVDs
* ‘mount-dvd (name path)‘: Mount a DVD to the virtual machine.
* ‘unmount-dvd (name)‘: Remove the DVD from the virtual DVD drive.
