CanbiZ (MickLesk) 6f04a9787f core-refactor: single-reporter telemetry rewrite (#15933)
Overhaul the telemetry system to enforce a single-reporter model where only the HOST sends terminal statuses (success/failed/aborted) to the API. Containers now write local artifact files (.failed flag + .errinfo) that the host picks up after lxc-attach returns, preventing the race condition where a metadata-less container payload would win over the full host payload.

Key changes:
- Add TELEMETRY_CONTEXT=container export in install.func/alpine-install.func to mark container context before error handling starts
- Introduce _is_container_context() heuristic and _container_write_failure() artifact writer in error_handler.func
- Refactor api.func: unified _tm_payload() builder (full metadata on every send), _tm_send() curl wrapper, _tm_enabled() gate, telemetry_collect_sysinfo() cached collector
- Add structured .errinfo capture in silent() (core.func) using byte-offset to extract exactly the failing command's output
- Pull .errinfo from container in build.func after lxc-attach for precise error traces
- Add categorize_error(), telemetry_new_attempt(), detect_arm(), REPO_SLUG tracking
- Signal exits (129/130/143) now report as 'aborted' instead of 'failed'
- Remove post_update_to_api_extended() (superseded by unified _tm_payload)
- Export REPO_SOURCE, REPO_SLUG, TELEMETRY_PLATFORM into container environment

Proxmox VE Helper-Scripts

One-command installations for services, containers, and VMs on Proxmox VE
A community project — built on the foundation of @tteck's original work


What is this?

Simplify your Proxmox VE setup with community-driven automation scripts.

Install and configure popular self-hosted services with a single command — no manual package hunting, no config file archaeology. Paste a command into your Proxmox shell, answer a few prompts, and your container or VM is up and running.

The collection covers hundreds of services across categories like home automation, media servers, networking tools, databases, monitoring stacks, and more.


Requirements

Component Details
Proxmox VE Version 8.4, 9.0, 9.1, or 9.2
Host OS Proxmox VE (Debian-based)
Access Root shell access on the Proxmox host
Network Internet connection required during installation

Getting Started

The fastest way to find and run scripts:

  1. Go to community-scripts.org
  2. Search for the service you want (e.g. "Home Assistant", "Nginx Proxy Manager", "Jellyfin")
  3. Copy the one-line install command from the script page
  4. Open your Proxmox Shell and paste it
  5. Choose between Default or Advanced setup and follow the prompts

Each script page documents what the container includes, default resource allocation, and post-install notes.


How Scripts Work

Every script follows the same pattern:

Default mode — Picks sensible resource defaults (CPU, RAM, storage) and asks only the minimum required questions. Most installs finish in under five minutes.

Advanced mode — Gives you full control over container settings, networking, storage backends, and application-level configuration before anything is installed.

After installation, each container ships with a post-install helper accessible from the Proxmox shell. It handles common tasks like:

  • Applying updates to the installed service
  • Changing application settings without manually editing config files
  • Basic troubleshooting and log access

What's Included

The repository covers a wide range of categories. A few examples:

Category Examples
Home Automation Home Assistant, Zigbee2MQTT, ESPHome, Node-RED
Media Jellyfin, Plex, Radarr, Sonarr, Immich
Networking AdGuard Home, Nginx Proxy Manager, Pi-hole, Traefik
Monitoring Grafana, Prometheus, Uptime Kuma, Netdata
Databases PostgreSQL, MariaDB, Redis, InfluxDB
Security Vaultwarden, CrowdSec, Authentik
Dev & Tools Gitea, Portainer, VS Code Server, n8n

Contributing

This project runs on community contributions. Whether you want to write new scripts, improve existing ones, or just report a bug — every bit helps.

Where to start

I want to… Go here
Add a new script ProxmoxVED — new scripts are tested here first

Before you open a PR

  • New scripts go to ProxmoxVED, not here. PRs with new scripts opened directly against this repo will be closed.
  • Bug fixes and improvements to existing scripts belong in this repo — read the Contributing Guidelines first.
  • Keep PRs focused. One fix or feature per PR.
  • Document what your script installs and any non-obvious decisions in the corresponding JSON metadata file.
