h1. VirtualBox
This gem is a Ruby API for VirtualBox, Sun's open-source virtualization software that supports Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows.
h2. Features
Currently, the gem supports the following features:
- (work in progress) creating and starting virtual machines
- VirtualBox version detection (OSE vs. regular)
h2. Contributions
Please don't hesitate to fork the project and send pull requests.
Right now, the API is built on top of the VBoxManage command-line utility. This is an easy implementation, but the performance leaves to be desired. If someone cares enough, VirtualBox has a binary API based on XPCOM (Linux, OS X) / COM (Windows). Changes for using the binary API would be greatly appreciated.
