2024-02-28 proxmox roles search#

I search for Ansible Galaxy for interesting roles/plugins for Proxmox.

Here is what I found in collections:

  • sbarbett.proxmox_management has various roles that might be interesting to setup VM/CT (license MIT)
  • cloudcodger.proxmox_openssh also has various roles and some plugins to install hosts, it seems well architected (GPL-2.0-or-later)
  • maxhoesel.proxmox also seems really well done and covers a lot of aspects, but it didn't receive updates since a long time (GPL-3.0-or-later)
  • nfaction.boostrap has a role to setup a Proxmox node (GPL-2.0-or-later)

The ansible collection Community.General has a lot of proxmox plugins.

I then search for roles (sorted by download count):

  • I saw enix has it's own role: https://github.com/enix/ansible-proxmox-ve (GPLv2) I know their competence but they say this role is a bit tailored to their specific needs. (also they say it's configurable) It might also be of inspiration.
  • tobias_richter.proxmox seems good but does a lot of things than I'm not sure we need
  • lae.proxmox seems to do all the base config we need (MIT)

I think lae.proxmox is the most interesting one.
