# vmware-fusion-py
This Python module provides a convenient way to control and interact with VMware Fusion virtual machines using the `vmrun` command-line utility. Built and tested for VMware Fusion on arm64 MacOS
## Features
- Full coverage of the `vmrun` CLI
- Start, stop, reset, suspend, pause, and unpause virtual machines
- Manage snapshots (create, delete, list, and revert)
- Manage network adapters (list, add, set, and delete)
- Manage port forwarding for host networks
- Run programs and scripts in the guest operating system
- Manage files and directories in the guest operating system
- Manage shared folders between the host and guest
- Interact with the guest operating system (type keystrokes, capture screenshots, etc.)
- Clone virtual machines
- Upgrade virtual machines and install VMware Tools
## Prerequisites
- Python 3.x
- VMware Fusion on MacOS
- `vmrun` command-line utility (included with VMware Fusion)
## Installation
### Pip
`pip install vmware-fusion-py`
### From Source
1. Clone the repository or download the source code.
2. Install the package using `pip install .`
## Usage
### Initialization
```python
# Get vmrun path or provide the path as a string
vmrun_path = shutil.which("vmrun")
if not vmrun_path:
# vmrun is installed automatically alongside VMware Fusion. Install VMware
exit()
# Initiate client
client = VMware(vmrun_path=vmrun_path)
```
### Presets
```python
client = VMware(
vmrun_path="/path/to/vmrun",
host_type="ws",
vm_password="password",
guest_user="username",
guest_password="password",
vm_path="/path/to/vm"
)
```
