Login-Credentials

[RobinDev03]

Hey, where do I have to fill in my credentials to use the package?

Hi @RobinDev03,
to fill your Proxmox's credentials you call the module like this:

const pveapi = require('pve-api')({uname}, {pwd}, {realm}, {host}, {verboseLevel});

Where uname is the username to which you have access, pwd is the password, realm is the realm used by your used(PAM or PVE Authentication, LDAP, AD or OpenID), host is the hostname or IPv4 of the server(port 8006 is not needed) and finally verboseLevel which is the level of verbosity, default being 0 which only outputs errors and critical messages.
You should then be able to access all functions.

I just noticed that I didn't put the arguments of my module in the ReadMe. I'll update it right away.

Let me know if you need help of any sort 👍🏿.
Thanks,

Diego Vaccher.

Hey,

thank you.

Do you have a Discord-Server for Questions containing this package?

When I use this:

const username = client.config.hostData.username;
const password = client.config.hostData.password;
const realm = client.config.hostData.realm;
const host = client.config.hostData.host;
const pve_api = require('pve-api')({username}, {password}, {realm}, {host});

I get this error:

home/robin/WebstormProjects/dsc-PVE/node_modules/pve-api/lib/pve-api.js:609
                                await _GenerateNewTicket();

Hey @RobinDev03,

At the moment my API isn't fully implemented and many function were just defined as normal function (without the async keyword) because the structure and functionality of the API was thought differently from what it will be.
However, I'll update it right as I got some time in my hand.
Anyhow, feel free to make a pull request, it would be great!

As of the Discord-Server, right now I don't have one, but I'm planning to create one!

Thanks,

Diego Vaccher.
