Changelog

0.3.0 (2026-5-22)

Added

• Introduce ImageConfig to support guest distro, architecture, source, and digest configuration.
• Integrate QMP for graceful VM shutdown and running-state queries.
• Add progress bars during image downloads.
• Add builder-style chaining for ImageConfig and MachineConfig.

Fixed

• Inject SSH over vhost-vsock startup logic into VMs via cloud-init to improve SSH connection stability.
• Improve streaming hash computation performance (set sha2 crate opt-level = 3).

Changed

• Refactor image handling logic to unify built-in distro and custom image creation via the Image::new() interface.
• Make SSH launch timeout configurable and support ephemeral images via auto-cleanup.
• Tighten the public API surface and align doc comments with rustdoc conventions.

Removed

• Remove dependency on external sha256sum/sha512sum binaries.
• Remove kernel/initrd extraction logic; QEMU no longer boots directly from kernel, and the host no longer depends on guestfish or virt-copy-out.
• Deprecated factory function create_image.
