* Scripts: close every msg_info block with msg_ok Past-tense msg_info calls that should have been msg_ok, notices that opened a block before a prompt, and blocks without a closing msg_ok. These already left a stale spinner; with core's block stack they would resume it after every later msg_ok. * Generate passwords with random_password openssl rand -base64 | tr -dc | head -c returned fewer characters than asked for, and the unfiltered | cut variants put / and + into passwords that end up in DSNs and sed expressions. Secrets an app decodes as base64 are unchanged. Requires community-scripts/core#61. * Keep data directories through CLEAN_INSTALL instead of copying them create_backup copied uploads, storage and similar directories twice per update and needed their size again in free space. CLEAN_INSTALL_KEEP moves them aside instead. Only directories the upstream release does not ship, in scripts that restored right after the fetch. Requires community-scripts/core#61. * Drop the 300s uv timeout overrides setup_uv exports UV_HTTP_TIMEOUT=600 now; the scripts' 300 only lowered it. Requires community-scripts/core#61.
Proxmox VE Helper-Scripts
One-command installations for services, containers, and VMs on Proxmox VE
A community project — built on the foundation of @tteck's original work
What is this?
Simplify your Proxmox VE setup with community-driven automation scripts.
Install and configure popular self-hosted services with a single command — no manual package hunting, no config file archaeology. Paste a command into your Proxmox shell, answer a few prompts, and your container or VM is up and running.
The collection covers hundreds of services across categories like home automation, media servers, networking tools, databases, monitoring stacks, and more.
Requirements
| Component | Details |
|---|---|
| Proxmox VE | Version 8.4, 9.0, 9.1, or 9.2 |
| Host OS | Proxmox VE (Debian-based) |
| Access | Root shell access on the Proxmox host |
| Network | Internet connection required during installation |
Getting Started
The fastest way to find and run scripts:
- Go to community-scripts.org
- Search for the service you want (e.g. "Home Assistant", "Nginx Proxy Manager", "Jellyfin")
- Copy the one-line install command from the script page
- Open your Proxmox Shell and paste it
- Choose between Default or Advanced setup and follow the prompts
Each script page documents what the container includes, default resource allocation, and post-install notes.
How Scripts Work
Every script follows the same pattern:
Default mode — Picks sensible resource defaults (CPU, RAM, storage) and asks only the minimum required questions. Most installs finish in under five minutes.
Advanced mode — Gives you full control over container settings, networking, storage backends, and application-level configuration before anything is installed.
After installation, each container ships with a post-install helper accessible from the Proxmox shell. It handles common tasks like:
- Applying updates to the installed service
- Changing application settings without manually editing config files
- Basic troubleshooting and log access
What's Included
The repository covers a wide range of categories. A few examples:
| Category | Examples |
|---|---|
| Home Automation | Home Assistant, Zigbee2MQTT, ESPHome, Node-RED |
| Media | Jellyfin, Plex, Radarr, Sonarr, Immich |
| Networking | AdGuard Home, Nginx Proxy Manager, Pi-hole, Traefik |
| Monitoring | Grafana, Prometheus, Uptime Kuma, Netdata |
| Databases | PostgreSQL, MariaDB, Redis, InfluxDB |
| Security | Vaultwarden, CrowdSec, Authentik |
| Dev & Tools | Gitea, Portainer, VS Code Server, n8n |
