Right - I was looking for the simple equivalent to euca-get-console-output, i.e. something which calls compute_api.get_console_output().  

It seems to me that would be basic enough to qualify for /server/{id}/console-text or some such.    Xenapi not a problem for me - the current KVM support if fine ;-)

Ah, I see.  consoles.py is for getting info about VNC (or similar) console...ie: create console, get info on how to connect to the vnc console, etc.  It doesn't appear compute_api.get_console_output() is exposed in OS API right now, which is what you want.  Those compute_api console methods are also currently not implemented for 'xenapi'.
