Hello SPICE developers!When I was coding aSPICE I elected to use non-UI code from spicy. This may have not been the wisest choice, because the recommended client is now remote/virt-viewer. I'm guessing because spicy has not been maintained for some time, it lacks logic to authenticate with a username to an oVirt proxy.I have a few questions regarding this work.
You can consider spicy has a test client for spice-gtk. Maybe we should move it to a tests/ subdirectory to make it more clear.
1) Have I understood correctly that oVirt proxy support is what is lacking in spicy?
ovirt is not what I would call a "proxy". You can ask ovirt for credentials to a vm it manages, and then connect to it. (same with libvirt)
2) Are there any other connection types that require a username?
sure, that really depend what server/proxy/service you are talking about.
3) Do you think it is feasible to isolate the code which deals with oVirt proxy handling in virt-viewer and use that in aSPICE?
The isolation from libgovirt should be enough for implementing a different client easily.
4) Am I better off porting the non-UI code from virt-viewer to Android and using that instead of the non-UI code from spicy?
No, the virt-viewer code is very much gtk+ specific. All we can share for android should stop at non-toolkit level. (spice-glib, govirt, etc)
Thanks in advance for any input on this topic!
