Proxstar

Proxstar is a proxmox VM web management tool used by Rochester Institute of Technology's Computer Science House.

Overview

Written using Python, Flask.

Proxstar removes the need for CSH members to have direct access to the proxmox web interface.

Proxstar is also used to enforce proxmox resource limits automagically.

It is available to house members at proxstar.csh.rit.edu behind PYOIDC authentication.

1. Fork this repository

• Optionally create a new git branch if your change is more than a small tweak (git checkout -b BRANCH-NAME-HERE)

3. Make your changes locally, commit, and push to your fork

• If you want to test locally, you should copy config.py to config_local.py, and talk to an RTP about filling in secrets.
• Lint your local changes with pylint proxstar
  • You'll need dependencies installed locally to do this. You should do that in a venv of some sort to keep your system clean. All the dependencies are listed in requirements.txt, so you can install everything with pip install -r requirements.txt. You'll need python 3.6 at minimum, though things should work up to python 3.8.
