|
||||
|
||||
Complete list of prerequisites and setup steps for the Proxmox workspace.
|
||||
|
||||
## System Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
### Required Software
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Node.js**
|
||||
- Version: 16.0.0 or higher
|
||||
- Check: `node --version`
|
||||
- Install: Download from [nodejs.org](https://nodejs.org/) or use package manager
|
||||
|
||||
2. **pnpm**
|
||||
- Version: 8.0.0 or higher
|
||||
- Check: `pnpm --version`
|
||||
- Install: `npm install -g pnpm`
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Git**
|
||||
- Any recent version
|
||||
- Check: `git --version`
|
||||
- Install: Usually pre-installed on Linux/Mac
|
||||
|
||||
### Optional but Recommended
|
||||
|
||||
- **Proxmox VE** (if deploying containers)
|
||||
- Version: 7.0+ or 8.4+/9.0+
|
||||
- For local development, you can use the MCP server to connect to remote Proxmox
|
||||
|
||||
## Workspace Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Repository Setup
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Clone repository (if applicable)
|
||||
git clone <repository-url>
|
||||
cd proxmox
|
||||
|
||||
# Initialize submodules
|
||||
git submodule update --init --recursive
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Workspace Structure
|
||||
|
||||
Required structure:
|
||||
```
|
||||
proxmox/
|
||||
├── package.json # Root workspace config
|
||||
├── pnpm-workspace.yaml # Workspace definition
|
||||
├── mcp-proxmox/ # MCP server submodule
|
||||
│ ├── index.js
|
||||
│ └── package.json
|
||||
└── ProxmoxVE/ # Helper scripts submodule
|
||||
└── frontend/
|
||||
└── package.json
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Dependencies Installation
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Install all workspace dependencies
|
||||
pnpm install
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This installs dependencies for:
|
||||
- `mcp-proxmox-server` - MCP server packages
|
||||
- `proxmox-helper-scripts-website` - Frontend packages
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
```bash
|
||||
PROXMOX_HOST=your-proxmox-ip-or-hostname
|
||||
PROXMOX_USER=root@pam
|
||||
PROXMOX_TOKEN_NAME=your-token-name
|
||||
PROXMOX_TOKEN_VALUE=your-token-secret
|
||||
PROXMOX_ALLOW_ELEVATED=false
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Optional variables:
|
||||
```bash

|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Claude Desktop Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
Location: `~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
|
||||
|
||||
Required configuration:
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"mcpServers": {
|
||||
"proxmox": {
|
||||
"command": "node",
|
||||
"args": ["/home/intlc/projects/proxmox/mcp-proxmox/index.js"]
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|

|
||||
- Access to Proxmox web interface
|
||||
- API access enabled
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. API Token Creation
|
||||
|
||||
Create API token via Proxmox UI:
|
||||
1. Log into Proxmox web interface
|
||||
2. Navigate to **Datacenter** → **Permissions** → **API Tokens**
|
||||
3. Click **Add** to create new token

./scripts/create-proxmox-token.sh <host> <user> <password> <token-name>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. LXC Template (for container deployments)
|
||||
|
||||
Download base template:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
pveam download local debian-12-standard_12.2-1_amd64.tar.zst
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Or use `all-templates.sh` script:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE/main/tools/addon/all-templates.sh)"
|
||||

## Troubleshooting Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
### Node.js Issues
|
||||
|
||||

||||
curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.0/install.sh | bash
|
||||
nvm install 18
|
||||
nvm use 18
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### pnpm Issues
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Install globally
|
||||
npm install -g pnpm
|
||||
|
||||
# Or use corepack (Node.js 16.9+)
|
||||
corepack enable
|
||||
corepack prepare pnpm@latest --activate
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Submodule Issues
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
# If submodules are outdated
|
||||
git submodule update --remote
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Dependency Issues
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Clean install

||||
rm -rf pnpm-lock.yaml */pnpm-lock.yaml
|
||||
pnpm install
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Next Steps After Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Configure Proxmox credentials** in `.env`
|
||||
2. **Restart Claude Desktop** (if using MCP server)
|
||||
