## Breaking changes

### 1.0.0

- The inventory file schema has completely changed. See the [**inventory_example.yaml**](inventory_example.yaml) file for more details.
- The command parameters were renamed to be more consistent.
- The API and inventory schema are now stable.

## Prerequisites

You need a Windows machine, which will serve as the access point to SCVMM, with the following tools:

- OpenSSH
- SCVMM's PowerShell Module (**virtualmachinemanager**), installed with the Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) Console. You can also get it at

## Installation

```shell
pip install -U vmm-manager
```

## How to use

Use the command below to see the available options:

```shell
vmm_manager -h
```

### Environment variables

You can set environment variables to avoid passing the same parameters every time you run the script. See an example in the [**.env.default**](.env.default) file.

### Example of a inventory file

[inventory_example.yaml](inventory_example.yaml)

## Development

### Install Poetry

Run the following commands to install Poetry:

```shell
# install
curl -sSL https://install.python-poetry.org | python3 -

# auto-completion
# Bash
poetry completions bash >> ~/.bash_completion
```

### Environment variables (optional)

Use the **.env.default** file as a template to create a **.env** file with the environment variables needed to run the script. You can load them by running the command `export $(cat .env | xargs)` before executing the script.

### How to run

```shell
# Loading environment variables (optional)
export $(cat .env | xargs)

# Install dependencies
poetry install --no-root

# Run
poetry run python -m vmm_manager -h
```

### Helpful commands

```shell
# Poetry shell
poetry shell

# Add a dependency
poetry add [--dev]

# Update dependencies
poetry update

# Run linting
