ProxmoxConnection

ProxmoxConnection is a resource that provides a connection to a Proxmox server. It allows the operator to interact with the Proxmox API and perform operations on Proxmox resources. The ProxmoxConnection resource is used to store the connection details, such as the Proxmox endpoint, username, and password.

Creating ProxmoxConnection

To create a new ProxmoxConnection resource, you need to provide the connection details in the manifest. Here is an example of how to create a ProxmoxConnection resource:

cat <<EOF | kubectl apply -f -
apiVersion: proxmox.alperen.cloud/v1alpha1
kind: ProxmoxConnection
metadata:
  name: proxmox-connection-sample
spec:
  endpoint: "PROXMOX_ENDPOINT"
  username: "PROXMOX_USERNAME"
  password: "PROXMOX_PASSWORD"
  insecureSkipVerify: true
EOF

In the above example, replace PROXMOX_ENDPOINT, PROXMOX_USERNAME, and PROXMOX_PASSWORD with your Proxmox server's endpoint, username, and password. The insecureSkipVerify field is optional and can be set to true if you want to skip SSL verification. For more information about the fields, you can check the examples/ directory.

Referencing your ProxmoxConnection

ProxmoxConnection resource itself does not create any Proxmox resources. It is used to create other Proxmox resources such as VirtualMachine, Container, and Storage. You can reference the ProxmoxConnection resource in the spec of these resources. It's a metadata object to be referenced in other resources. For example, you can reference the ProxmoxConnection resource in the VirtualMachine resource as follows:

cat <<EOF | kubectl apply -f -
apiVersion: proxmox.alperen.cloud/v1alpha1
kind: VirtualMachine
metadata:
  name: virtualmachine-sample-clone-new
  namespace: default
spec:
  connectionRef:
    name: proxmox-connection-sample
  name: virtualmachine-sample-clone-new
  nodeName: lowtower
  template:
    socket: 1
    cores: 2
    disk:
    - device: scsi0
      size: 60
      storage: local-lvm
    memory: 4096
