Disclaimer

My homelab datacenter is a fun project, the goal is to have fun & enjoy the time spent on it. Thus, nothing in this repository should be taken seriously.

Especially my choice to use Alpine everywhere.

Alpine is my favorite distribution, I like muslc, busybox & apk. With Alpine, you're also not concerned by the famous GNU/Linux copypasta.

This choice is a complete joke, therefor please don't take it seriously.

Getting started

This repository is dedicated to proxmox infrastructure in our eu-west-1 datacenter (France). infra: infrastructure, prox: proxmox & ew1: datacenter in eu-west-1.

To get started with the repository I strongly suggest to checkout the vm/ folder & checkout the different docs.

Proxmox-cli

Please install proxmox-cli for a better user experience.

Proxmox-cli is a simple bash wrapper around the Proxmox REST API.It requires curl & jq, so please make sure to have them installed.

Curl the API

If you prefer to curl the API directly, here are a few steps to get started:

Setup

export PM_API_URL=https://node0.mahdhaoui.com:8006/api2/json
export PM_USER_NAME=alexandre.mahdhaoui
export PM_USER_DOMAIN=pam
read -sp "Password? " PM_PASS

Authenticate

pve.auth() {
  curl -k -s\
    -d "username=$PM_USER_NAME@$PM_USER_DOMAIN"\
    --data-urlencode "password=$PM_PASS" "$PM_API_URL/access/ticket"
}
export PM_AUTH_COOKIE="PVEAuthCookie=$(pve.auth | jq '.data.ticket' | sed 's/\"//g' )"
export PM_CSRF_HEADER="CSRFPreventionToken: $(pve.auth | jq '.data.CSRFPreventionToken')"

Request the API

curl -k -b "$PM_AUTH_COOKIE" -H "$PM_CSRF_HEADER" "$PM_API_URL/nodes/node0/qemu" | jq
