The API is getting some attention. Current plan is to add feature parity python bindings to API (patches pending) and then add features to the API. Some of the initial planned improvements include: - PV (create/resize/remove/enumerate & query) - VG (activate/deactivate) - LV (Ability to enumerate information directly without enumerating VGs first) - Dry run feature, the ability to do multiple changes while checking for errors and examine the end resulting end configuration before applying changes The long term goal is to achieve feature parity with the command line. > I rather use a stable API instead of wrapping around CLI commands, > but mixing the two to use the functionality the API is missing > doesn't seem a smart option to me. We agree.
