ProxmoxAAS API provides functionality to the Client by both providing a proxy API for the Proxmox API, and an API for requesting resources within a defined quota.
## Prerequisites
- (ProxmoxAAS-Client)[https://github.com/tronnet-gh/ProxmoxAAS-Client]\
- Proxmox VE Cluster (v7.0+)
- (ProxmoxAAS-Client)[https://github.com/tronnet-gh/ProxmoxAAS-Client]
- Reverse proxy server which can proxy the client and API
- FQDN
- Server with NodeJS and NPM installed
## Configuring API Token and Permissions
In the proxmox web ui, follow the following steps:
1. Add a new user `proxmoxaas-api` to proxmox
In Proxmox VE, follow the following steps:
1. Add a new user `proxmoxaas-api` to Proxmox VE
2. Create a new API token for the user `proxmoxaas-api` and copy the secret key to a safe location
3. Create a new role `proxmoxaas-api` with at least the following permissions:
- VM.* except VM.Audit, VM.Backup, VM.Clone, VM.Console, VM.Monitor, VM.PowerMgmt, VM.Snapshot, VM.Snapshot.Rollback

1. Clone this repo onto `Client Host`
2. Run `npm install` to initiaze the package requirements
3. Copy `vars.js.template` as `vars.js` and modify the following values:
- pveAPI - the URI to the Proxmox API, ie `pve.<FQDN>/api2/json`
- domain - your domain name
- pveAPI - the URI to the Proxmox API, ie `<proxmoxhost>:8006/api2/json` or `<proxmox URL>/api2/json` if Proxmox VE is behind a reverse proxy.
- domain - the ProxmoxAAS-Client URL, ie `client.<FQDN>`
- listenPort - the port you want the API to listen on, ie `8080`
- pveAPIToken - the user(name), authentication realm, token id, and token secrey key (uuid)
4. Start the service using `node .`, or call the provided shell script, or use the provided systemctl service script
## Installation - Reverse Proxy
1. Configure nginx or preferred reverse proxy to reverse proxy the client. This can be done in the same file previously or in a new configuration file:
```
server {
listen 443 ssl;
server_name client.<FQDN>;
location / {
proxy_pass http://<Client Host>:80;
}
location /api/ {
proxy_pass http://<Client Host>:8080;
}
}
```
2. Start nginx with the new configurations by running `systemctl reload nginx`
## Result
After these steps, the ProxmoxAAS Client should be avaliable and fully functional at `client.<FQDN>`.
