kpr-genesis — Git‑Driven KPR Proxmox Automation

kpr-genesis is both the runner and the repository that keep your Arch‑based Proxmox homelab declarative. A push to the main branch triggers:

Terraform – provisions / reconciles LXCs on Proxmox.
Ansible – installs Docker, then deploys services in those LXCs.

The first wired‑in service is the Rust paste‑bin w4/bin.

Prerequisites

Proxmox VE 8.x with an API token that has at least PVEAdmin on / (root@pam!kpr-genesis in the samples).
Arch Linux LXC named kpr-genesis with terraform, ansible-core, python-proxmoxer, and python-requests installed.
Public SSH key committed as id_ed25519.pub (Terraform injects it into each new container).
Webhook from your Gitea server hitting http://kpr-genesis.<lan>:9000/hook.

First‑Time Setup

# clone the repo as the 'infra' user

git clone https://tetera.kernelpanic.lol/ozymandias/kpr-genesis
cd kpr-genesis

install Ansible roles / collections

ansible-galaxy install -r ansible/requirements.yml

export the Proxmox token

`export PROXMOX_TOKEN=``

run the pipeline once

export TF_VAR_pm_api_url=https://<PROXMOX IP HERE>:8006/api2/json
export TF_VAR_pm_user=root@pam
export TF_VAR_pm_token=<PROXMOX TOKEN HERE>
export TF_VAR_node=pacifica
export TF_VAR_bin_lxc_password='<PASSWORD HERE>'
export PROXMOX_TOKEN=<PROXMOX TOKEN HERE>

./scripts/run_pipeline.sh

Terraform creates a DHCP LXC named bin; Ansible installs Docker inside it and starts the w4/bin container on port 8000.

Workflow

Edit Terraform or Ansible files.
Commit and push to main.
Webhook triggers pipeline; infrastructure converges.

Adding a Service

Add a proxmox_lxc block in terraform/main.tf.
Create a role under ansible/roles/ and reference it in site.yml.
Commit & push — pipeline handles the rest.

Secrets

Only public keys live in Git. The Proxmox token is supplied via the PROXMOX_TOKEN environment variable (or through Ansible Vault if preferred).

Troubleshooting

ansible-inventory -i ansible/inventory.proxmox.yml --graph
journalctl -u infra-hook for pipeline logs
terraform state list to inspect tracked resources
