Proxmox API Go
Proxmox API in golang. For /api2/json. Work in progress.
Starting with Proxmox 5.2 you can use cloud-init options.
Contributing
Want to help with the project please refer to our style-guide.
Build
go build -o proxmox-api-go
Run
Create a local .env
file in the root directory of the project and add the following environment variables:
PM_API_URL="https://xxxx.com:8006/api2/json"
PM_USER=user@pam
PM_PASS=password
PM_OTP=otpcode (only if required)
PM_HTTP_HEADERS=Key,Value,Key1,Value1 (only if required)
Note: Do not commit your local .env
file to version control to keep your credentials secure.
Or export the environment variables:
export PM_API_URL="https://xxxx.com:8006/api2/json"
export PM_USER=user@pam
export PM_PASS=password
export PM_OTP=otpcode (only if required)
export PM_HTTP_HEADERS=Key,Value,Key1,Value1 (only if required)

Proxy server support
Just use the flag -proxy and specify your proxy url and port
./proxmox-api-go -proxy https://localhost:8080 start 123

ISO requirements (non cloud-init)
Kickstart auto install
- partition /dev/vda
- network eth1
- sshd (with preshared key/password)
Network is temporarily eth1 during the pre-provision phase.
Test
You're going to need vagrant and virtualbox to run the tests:
make test
