Re: Vmware api

Hi! Luke,

You can use the vmrun command for interacting with VMware
Workstation/Fusion. You can do something like

import os
os.system('vmrun start .vmxFile')
os.system('vmrun stop .vmxFile')

If you can be more specific about your needs, I may be able to help you further.

Thanks,

Raj

Hi List,

Has anyone here played around with getting python to talk to the vmware
api's. I have had a quick look at vmware's api and there is no out of the
box python packages, but I believe that there might be some third party
wrappers around? If anyone has any info that would be great. Thanks
