📚 Full Documentation

Features

• Dual Mode: Mock mode (default) for development, Real mode for production Proxmox integration
• 646 Endpoints: Pre-generated Proxmox VE 8.1 API with full OpenAPI schema
• Mock Data: Automatically generate mock data for all endpoints with in-memory CRUD
• Real API Proxy: Validated proxy to real Proxmox VE API with request/response validation
• Code Generation: Automatically crawl Proxmox API Viewer and convert to OpenAPI schema
• Multi-version Support: Select multiple Proxmox versions with latest mapped to official Proxmox API viewer
• Swagger Docs: FastAPI auto-generates OpenAPI documentation at /docs

Installation

pip install proxmox-sdk

Quick Start

Mock Mode (Default)

# Install
pip install proxmox-sdk

# Start server
uvicorn proxmox_sdk.main:app --reload

# View Swagger docs
# Open http://localhost:8000/docs

SDK Direct Usage (No Server Required)

from proxmox_sdk.sdk import ProxmoxSDK

# Async with mock data
async with ProxmoxSDK.mock() as proxmox:
    nodes = await proxmox.nodes.get()

# Or sync (blocking)
with ProxmoxSDK.sync_mock() as proxmox:
    nodes = proxmox.nodes.get()

CLI TUI

# Install with CLI extras
pip install proxmox-sdk[cli]

# Production TUI
pbx tui

# Mock TUI
pbx tui mock

Real Mode (Connect to Proxmox)

# Configure credentials
export PROXMOX_API_MODE=real
export PROXMOX_URL=https://proxmox.example.com:8006
export PROXMOX_API_TOKEN=PVEAPIToken=user@realm!tokenid=uuid

# Start server
uvicorn proxmox_sdk.main:app --reload

Docker

All images are Alpine-based (smaller footprint), built from this repository with uv and uv.lock in a multi-stage Dockerfile. Three variants are published to Docker Hub:

Variant	Tags	Description
Raw (default)	latest, <version>	Pure uvicorn, HTTP only. Smallest image.
Nginx	latest-nginx, <version>-nginx	nginx terminates HTTPS via mkcert; proxies to uvicorn.
Granian	latest-granian, <version>-granian	Granian (Rust ASGI server) with native TLS via mkcert. No nginx.

Upgrade note: before v0.0.2, only runtime+mkcert images existed. From v0.0.2+, latest is the raw uvicorn image. Pull latest-nginx for HTTPS with nginx.

Raw image (default)

Plain uvicorn on HTTP — the simplest option for local dev or when you put your own proxy in front.

docker pull emersonfelipesp/proxmox-sdk:latest
docker run -d -p 8000:8000 --name proxmox-sdk emersonfelipesp/proxmox-sdk:latest

Build from source:

docker build -t proxmox-sdk:raw .
docker run -d -p 8000:8000 proxmox-sdk:raw

Nginx image (nginx + mkcert HTTPS + uvicorn)

nginx terminates HTTPS on PORT (default 8000) using certificates from mkcert and proxies to uvicorn on 127.0.0.1:8001. supervisord manages both processes.

docker pull emersonfelipesp/proxmox-sdk:latest-nginx
docker run -d -p 8443:8000 --name proxmox-sdk-nginx \
  emersonfelipesp/proxmox-sdk:latest-nginx

Build from source:

docker build --target nginx -t proxmox-sdk:nginx .
docker run -d -p 8443:8000 proxmox-sdk:nginx

Granian image (granian + mkcert HTTPS)

Granian is a Rust-based ASGI server with native HTTP/2, WebSocket, and TLS support. This variant eliminates nginx and supervisord — a single granian process handles everything.

docker pull emersonfelipesp/proxmox-sdk:latest-granian
docker run -d -p 8443:8000 --name proxmox-sdk-granian \
  emersonfelipesp/proxmox-sdk:latest-granian

Build from source:

docker build --target granian -t proxmox-sdk:granian .
docker run -d -p 8443:8000 proxmox-sdk:granian

mkcert environment variables (nginx and granian images)

Variable	Default	Description
PORT	8000	Port the server listens on
MKCERT_CERT_DIR	/certs	Directory where certs are stored
MKCERT_EXTRA_NAMES	—	Extra SANs (commas or spaces), e.g. proxmox-api.lan,10.0.0.5
CAROOT	—	Mount a volume here to persist the local CA across container restarts
APP_MODULE	proxmox_sdk.mock_main:app	ASGI app to run (change to proxmox_sdk.main:app for real mode)

docker run -d -p 8443:8000 --name proxmox-sdk-tls \
  -e MKCERT_EXTRA_NAMES='myhost.local,192.168.1.10' \
  -e APP_MODULE='proxmox_sdk.main:app' \
  emersonfelipesp/proxmox-sdk:latest-nginx

To run a shell instead of starting the server, pass a command (the entrypoint delegates to it):

docker run --rm emersonfelipesp/proxmox-sdk:latest-nginx sh
