The catch_errors() function in CT scripts overrides the API telemetry
traps set by build.func. This caused on_exit, on_interrupt, and
on_terminate to never call post_update_to_api, leaving telemetry
records permanently stuck on 'installing'.
Changes:
- on_exit: Report orphaned 'installing' records on ANY exit where
post_to_api was called but post_update_to_api was not
- on_interrupt: Call post_update_to_api('failed', '130') before exit
- on_terminate: Call post_update_to_api('failed', '143') before exit
All calls are guarded by POST_UPDATE_DONE flag to prevent duplicates.
* Remove Go API and extend misc/api.func
Delete the Go-based API (api/main.go, api/go.mod, api/go.sum, api/.env.example) and significantly enhance misc/api.func. The shell telemetry file now includes telemetry configuration, repo source detection, GPU/CPU/RAM detection, expanded explain_exit_code mappings, and refactored post_to_api/post_to_api_vm to send non-blocking telemetry to telemetry.community-scripts.org while respecting DIAGNOSTICS/DEV_MODE and adding richer metadata (cpu/gpu/ram/repo_source). Also updates header/author info and improves privacy/robustness and error handling.
* Start install timer and refine error reporting
Call start_install_timer during build startup and overhaul exit/error reporting.
Changes:
- Invoke start_install_timer early in misc/build.func to track install duration.
- Update api_exit_script comments to reference PocketBase/api.func and adjust ERR/SIGINT/SIGTERM traps to post numeric exit codes (use $? / 130 / 143) instead of command strings.
- Replace the previous explain_exit_code implementation with a conditional fallback: only define explain_exit_code if not already provided (api.func is the canonical source). Expanded and reorganized exit code mappings (curl, timeout, systemd, Node/Python/Postgres/MySQL/MongoDB, Proxmox, etc.).
- In error_handler: stop echoing the container log path (host shows combined log), and post a "failed" update to the API with the exit code before offering container cleanup.
Rationale: these changes make telemetry more consistent and robust (numeric codes), provide a safe fallback for exit descriptions when api.func isn't loaded, and ensure failures are reported to the API prior to any automatic cleanup.
* Report install start/failure to telemetry API
Add telemetry hooks in misc/build.func: call post_to_api at installation start to capture early or immediately-failing installs, and call post_update_to_api with status "failed" and the install exit code when a container installation fails. This improves visibility into install failures for monitoring/telemetry.
* core: enhance storage type validation and error codes
Improve storage validation for LXC container creation with
explicit checks for unsupported storage types.
Changes:
- Add validation for storage types that don't support containers:
- iscsidirect (exit 212) - VMs only
- iscsi/zfs (exit 213) - no rootdir support
- cephfs (exit 219) - use RBD instead
- pbs (exit 224) - backups only
- Add connectivity check for network storage (linstor, rbd, nfs, cifs)
- Simplify storage content validation using pvesm status
- Reorganize Proxmox error codes (200-231) for consistency
- Update error messages to be more descriptive and actionable
This helps users identify storage compatibility issues early
before container creation fails with cryptic errors.
* Update build.func

* remove debugf and duplicate codes
* Update whiptail backtitles and error codes
Removed '[dev]' from whiptail --backtitle strings for consistency. Refactored custom exit codes in build.func and error_handler.func: updated Proxmox error codes, shifted MySQL/MariaDB codes to 260-263, and removed unused MongoDB code. Updated error descriptions to match new codes.

* Refactor error handling and clean up debug comments
Standardized bash variable checks, removed unnecessary debug and commented code, and clarified error handling logic in container build and setup scripts. These changes improve code readability and maintainability without altering functional behavior.
* Update build.func
* feat: Improve LXC network checks and LINSTOR storage handling
Enhanced LXC container network setup to check for both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, added connectivity (ping) tests, and provided troubleshooting tips on failure. Updated storage validation to support LINSTOR, including cluster connectivity checks and special handling for LINSTOR template storage.
