* 🇵🇱 **[Proxmox Manager – Co to jest, jak działa, instalacja i obsługa](https://blog.askomputer.pl/proxmox-manager-timintech-co-to-jest-jak-dziala-instalacja-i-obsluga/)** *A detailed walkthrough and review by askomputer.pl featuring usage examples and screenshots (in Polish).*

## 📸 Screenshots

| Main Menu — VM/CT Table | Action Menu |

| ![Main menu](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/TimInTech/proxmox-manager/main/docs/screenshots/screenshot-tui.png) | ![Action menu](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/TimInTech/proxmox-manager/main/docs/screenshots/screenshot-action-menu.png) |
| Live status for all VMs & containers | Per-instance controls: start, stop, console, snapshots |

</div>

---

## 🎯 Features

| | Feature | Details |
|---|---|---|
| 📋 | **List & Status** | All VMs and containers with live status — `[+]` running · `[-]` stopped · `[~]` paused · `[?]` unknown |
| ⚡ | **Start / Stop / Restart** | Confirmation prompt for destructive actions. Proxmox error details on failure. Configurable timeout with force-stop fallback |
| 🖥️ | **Console Access** | LXC shell via `pct enter` or QEMU terminal via `qm terminal`. Verifies running state before entering |
| 🌐 | **IP Address Lookup** | Shows current IPv4 addresses for running VMs and CTs — VM via QEMU Guest Agent, CT via `pct exec` |
| 📦 | **Snapshot Management** | List, create, rollback, delete — with name validation and snapshot preview before destructive actions |
| 🖱️ | **SPICE Integration** | Enable SPICE for VMs and retrieve `.vv` connection files. Auto-launches `virt-viewer` when installed |
| 🤖 | **Automation-Ready** | `--json` output, `--filter` by status, `--name` ERE filter, `--force` mode, structured logging via `LOG_FILE` |
| ⚙️ | **Config File** | Persistent defaults via `/etc/pmanrc` or `~/.pmanrc` — CLI flags always win |

---

## 🏗️ How It Works

A single `proxmox-manager.sh` script — no build step, no service, no config files. Runs on-demand as root directly on the Proxmox VE node.

## 🚀 Installation

**Requirements:** Proxmox VE host · Bash ≥ 4.0 · Root privileges · `qm` / `pct` (bundled with PVE)

### Step 1 — Clone

```bash
git clone https://github.com/TimInTech/proxmox-manager.git
cd proxmox-manager
```

### Step 2 — Run directly

```bash
chmod +x proxmox-manager.sh
./proxmox-manager.sh
```

### Step 3 — Or register as `pman` system-wide _(optional, requires root)_

```bash
./install_dependencies.sh
```

Installs a symlink to `/usr/local/bin/pman` so you can call `pman` from anywhere on the host.

---

## 🛠️ Usage

| Command | Description |
|---|---|
| `pman` | Interactive TUI — VM/CT table with full action menus |
| `pman --list` | Plain-text table output — useful for logging or quick checks |
| `pman --json` | Machine-readable JSON array for automation & `jq` |
| `pman --filter running` | Filter output by status: `running` \| `stopped` \| `paused` |
| `pman --name web` | Filter by VM/CT name (ERE substring-match; combinable with `--filter`) |
| `pman --force` | Skip all confirmation prompts (for unattended scripts) |
| `pman --timeout 30` | Custom stop timeout in seconds (default: 60) |
| `pman --no-clear` | Don't clear screen in interactive mode |
| `pman --once` | Run a single interactive refresh cycle (useful for TTY recording) |
| `pman --version` | Print version and exit |
| `pman -h, --help` | Show usage information and exit |

### Interactive mode

```
pman
```

Displays a table of all VMs/containers. Enter a VMID to open the action menu.

```
[+] running   [-] stopped   [~] paused   [?] unknown
```

Press `r` to refresh · `q` to quit

### JSON output

```bash
pman --json | jq '.[] | select(.status == "running")'
```

```json
[
  {"id": 100, "type": "VM", "status": "running", "symbol": "[+]", "name": "web-server"},
  {"id": 101, "type": "CT", "status": "stopped", "symbol": "[-]", "name": "db-container"}
]
```

### SPICE remote desktop

The SPICE integration generates a `.vv` connection file for any VM. If [`virt-viewer`](https://virt-manager.org/) is installed, it is launched automatically:

```bash
# Install virt-viewer (Debian / Proxmox host)
apt install virt-viewer
```

When `virt-viewer` is **not** installed, the path to the generated `.vv` file is printed together with the install hint. The SPICE bind address defaults to `127.0.0.1` and can be overridden via `PROXMOX_MANAGER_SPICE_ADDR` (env var or `~/.pmanrc`).

### Configuration

`proxmox-manager` checks the following files at startup (in this order):

| File | Scope |
|---|---|
| `/etc/pmanrc` | System-wide (all users) |
| `~/.pmanrc` | Per-user (overrides system-wide) |

CLI flags are applied last and always win over config file values.

```bash
# ~/.pmanrc — example
STOP_TIMEOUT=120                          # stop timeout in seconds (default: 60)
LOG_FILE="/var/log/proxmox-manager.log"   # structured log file (empty = disabled)
PROXMOX_MANAGER_SPICE_ADDR="192.168.1.10" # SPICE bind address (default: 127.0.0.1)
```

### Shell Completions

```bash
# Bash (system-wide)
sudo cp completions/pman.bash /etc/bash_completion.d/pman

# Zsh
mkdir -p ~/.zsh/completions
cp completions/pman.zsh ~/.zsh/completions/_pman
```

---

## 🔐 Security

- **Root required:** `qm` and `pct` need elevated privileges — there's no workaround.
- **No credentials stored:** Relies entirely on Proxmox host authentication.
- **No outbound traffic:** All operations are local to the node.
- **CI hardening:** ShellCheck on every push · Gitleaks scan for accidental secrets.
