[ovs-dev] ovs-style bridge creation from an external application

Hi,
We'd like to integrate the creation and configuration of OVS-style
bridges into our network configuration application, called Wicked.
We currently have a workaround solution for this, which relies on using
`ovs-vsctl` to create the OVS bridge and add any bridge ports. We then
create the appropriate configuration files (essentially treating the
OVS bridge as a basic ethernet device) and proceed with address/route
configuration. Obviously, this is not ideal.
Is there a way to better interface with OVS to automate the creation of
OVS-style bridges (APIs, dbus, etc)? Any pointers would be helpful.
Thanks in advance,
Karol
