# Proxmox Deploy [![Build Status](https://drone.broillet.ch/api/badges/mathieu/ProxmoxDeploy/status.svg)](https://drone.broillet.ch/mathieu/ProxmoxDeploy) ## Description Proxmox Deploy is a little script to manage my HomeLab with JSON file. ## Why? As my homelab was growing I realised that it was harder and harder to keep everything in sync and up to date. So I decided to create a script to manage my Proxmox homelab. # How to use it Have a look at the resources folder to see how to use it. # Documentation ## Configuration ### Proxmox VE The Proxmox VE configuration is located in the `config.json` file. ```json { "pve":{ "host": "", "user": "", // usually root "port": 22, // ssh port "local": false // set to true if this program is running directly on the PVE without needing ssh } } ``` ### LXC To create a LXC, you need to create a JSON file in the `resources/lxc/` folder. You can look at the example with ID 100 in the `resources/lxc/100` folder. Here is an example config with all available parameters : *Note : this is not valid JSON, it's just for documentation purposes, if you want to copy the file, use the one in the resources folder* ```json { "lxc_hostname": "traefik", //hostname of the lxc // the os block contains the os type // alpine | archlinux | centos | debian | devuan | fedora | gentoo | nixos | opensuse | ubuntu | unmanaged "os": { "name": "alpine", "release": "3.17" }, // the resources block contains the resources given to the lxc "resources": { "cpu": "2", // number of cpu cores "memory": "1024", // memory (ram) in MB "swap": "256", // swap in MB "disk": "8", // disk size in GB "storage": "local-lvm" // the proxmox storage to use }, // the network block contains the network configuration "network": { "bridge": "vmbr0", // the proxmox bridge to use, vmbr0 is the default one "ipv4": "dhcp", // ipv4 address, dhcp for dhcp, auto for auto, or an ip address "ipv6": "auto", // ipv6 address, dhcp for dhcp, auto for auto, or an ip address "mac": "92:A6:71:77:8E:D8", // mac address, leave empty for random "gateway4": "", // ipv4 gateway, leave empty for auto/dhcp "gateway6": "", // ipv6 gateway, leave empty for auto/dhcp "vlan": "" // vlan id, leave empty for no vlan }, // the options block contains various options for the lxc "options": { "privileged": "false", // set to true to run the lxc in privileged mode "start_on_boot": "false", // set to true to start the lxc on boot "startup_order": 2, // the startup order of the lxc "password": "qwertz1234", // the password of the root user, leave empty for none "tags": "2-proxy+auth" // tags for the lxc to display in the proxmox web ui }, ``` *Tip : have a look at the [man page](https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/pct.1.html) of the `pct` command to see how the values should look.* ## Creation In the creation section, you have the option to define conditions for checking whether your LXC/VM has been previously configured. If all of these conditions are met, the script will proceed directly to the deploy section and execute the necessary steps to update it. *(This indicates that your LXC/VM has already been configured, and we want to avoid erasing any existing settings/config.)* However, if **any** of the conditions fail to match, the script will process to the creation steps section and execute **all** the commands again. ## Conditions ### File The file condition will check if a file exists or not inside the LXC/VM. ```json "conditions": { // use a single file "file": "/var/data/traefikv2/traefik.toml" // or use a list, but only use one "files": ["/var/data/traefikv2/traefik.toml", "/var/data/config/traefikv2/docker-compose.yml"] } ``` It can be an array of file using ``["file1", "file2"]`` or just one file in double quote ``"file"``. ### Folder The folder condition will check if a folder exists or not inside the LXC/VM. ```json "conditions": { // use a single folder "folder": "/var/data/traefikv2" // or use a list, but only use one "folders": ["/var/data/traefikv2", "/var/data/config/traefikv2"] } ``` It can be an array of folders using ``["folder1", "folder2"]`` or just one folder in double quote ``"file"``. ### Programs The programs condition will check if a program is installed or not in the LXC/VM. ```json "conditions": { // use a single program "program": "docker" // or use a list, but only use one "programs": ["docker", "docker-compose"] } ``` It can be an array of programs using ``["program1", "program2"]`` or just one program in double quote ``"program"``. *Note:This uses `which` to check if the program matches to anything* ### Command The command condition will check if a command returns a specific value. ```json "conditions": { "command": "whoami", "value": "root" } ``` *Note: This uses `bash -c` to execute the command* *Note: If value is an integer, it will look for the return code, if it's a string it's check the output.* ### Docker The docker condition will check if a docker (or podman) container is running or not. ```json "conditions": { // use a single container "container": "traefikv2" // or use a list, but only use one "container": ["traefikv2", "portainer"] } ``` ## Steps **Note: Paths** When you have to specify a path, you can use ``/global/`` to use the global folder (`resources//`). If nothing is specified, the script will use the VM/LXC folder (`resources/lxc//`). *The comments in the JSON below are only for documentation purposes and are not valid JSON, remove them before running.* ### Script The script step will execute a script. ```json "steps": [ { "type": "script", "path": "/global/install-docker.sh" // local path (here: resources/scripts/install-docker.sh) } ] ``` ### File The file step will copy a file to the VM/LXC. ```json "steps": [ { "type": "file", "path": "traefik.toml", // local path (here: resources/lxc//traefik.toml) "destination": "/var/data/traefikv2/traefik.toml" // lxc/vm path } ] ``` ### Folder The folder step will copy a folder to the VM/LXC. ```json "steps": [ { "type": "folder", "path": "/data/", // local path (here: resources/lxc//data/) "destination": "/var/data/traefikv2" // lxc/vm path } ] ``` ### Command The command step will execute a command on the VM/LXC. ```json "steps": [ { "type": "command", "command": "whoami", // command to execute "working_directory": "/var/data/config/traefikv2" // lxc/vm path } ] ``` ### Docker The docker step will execute a docker command on the VM/LXC. ```json "steps": [ { "type": "docker", "command": "run -d --name=traefikv2 --restart=always -p 80:80 -p 443:443 -p 8080:8080 -v /var/data/traefikv2:/etc/traefik -v /var/data/config/traefikv2:/config -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock traefik:latest", // docker command to execute "working_directory": "/var/data/config/traefikv2" // lxc/vm path } ] ``` ### Docker-compose The docker-compose step will execute a docker-compose command on the VM/LXC. ```json "steps": [ { "type": "docker-compose", "command": "up -d", // docker-compose command to execute "working_directory": "/var/data/config/traefikv2" // lxc/vm path } ] ``` *Note : Here, why not use the `command` step? Docker Compose can sometimes be executed with `docker-compose` or `docker compose`, the script will take care of choosing the correct one.* ### Git The git step will clone a git repo on the VM/LXC. ```json "steps": [ { "type": "git", "url": "https://git.abc.xyz/abc/abc.git", // git url to clone "destination": "/root/" // lxc/vm path } ] ``` *Note: At the the moment, no authentication is supported, so only works on public repo.* ### Download The download step will download a file on the VM/LXC. ```json "steps": [ { "type": "download", // download a single file "url": "https://git.abc.xyz/file.tar.gz", // download url // or use a list of urls, but only use one "urls": ["https://git.abc.xyz/file1.tar.gz", "https://git.abc.xyz/file2.tar.gz"] // download urls "destination": "/tmp/" // lxc/vm path } ] ``` ### Extract archive (tar/zip) The unzip step will unzip a file in the VM/LXC. ```json "steps": [ { "type": "unzip", "path": "/tmp/file.tar.gz", // lxc/vm path to the archive "destination": "/var/data/config/traefikv2" // (optional) lxc/vm path to extract the archive, will use archive parent directory if blank } ] ``` *Note : At the the moment, only tar and zip are supported.* ### Install package The install-package step will install a package on the VM/LXC. ```json "steps": [ { "type": "install-package", // install a single package "package": "git", // or use a list of packages, but only use one "packages": ["git", "docker"] } ] ``` *Note : At the the moment, only apt, apk, dnf, yum are supported.* *Warning : Packages can have different names depending on the Linux distribution.* ### Remove package The remove-package step will remove a package on the VM/LXC. ```json "steps": [ { "type": "remove-package", // remove a single package "package": "git" // or use a list of packages, but only use one "packages": ["git", "docker"] } ] ``` *Note : At the the moment, only apt, apk, dnf, yum are supported.* *Warning : Packages can have different names depending on the Linux distribution.* ### Reboot The reboot step will reboot the VM/LXC. ```json "steps": [ { "type": "reboot" } ] ``` ### Replace in file The replace-in-file step will replace a string in a file. ```json "steps": [ { "type": "replace-in-file", // replace in a single file "path": "/var/data/config/traefikv2/traefik.toml", // inside lxc/vm // or use a list of files, but only use one "paths": ["/var/data/config/traefikv2/traefik.toml", "/var/data/config/traefikv2/traefik2.toml"] // inside lxc/vm "search": "abc", // string to search "replace": "xyz", // string to replace "case_sensitive": true, // (optional) case sensitive? default: true } ] ```
