Ansible Role: Proxmox VE Addons

This is an Ansible role that sets up special features for Proxmox VE 7. It helps to configure repositories for users without subscriptions, removes annoying subscription messages, and turns on a dark theme.

The removal of subscription messages and dark theme installation are tied to package management, ensuring that they remain even when Proxmox packages are updated.

Requirements

You need to have git installed on the target machine if you want to use the DiscordDarkTheme. It will be installed automatically if it's not already there.

Role Variables

Here are the available settings with their default values (see defaults/main.yml):

• pve_addons_enable_dark_theme: true

• pve_addons_remove_subscription_nag: true

• pve_addons_disable_enterprise_repo: false

• pve_addons_remove_enterprise_repo: true

• pve_addons_add_no_subscription_repo: true

• The pve_addons_enable_dark_theme setting allows the installation of the PVEDiscordDark theme.

• The pve_addons_add_no_subscription_repo and pve_addons_remove_enterprise_repo settings, when activated, add a repo for users without subscriptions and remove the enterprise repo.

• You can keep the enterprise repo file but deactivate it by setting pve_addons_disable_enterprise_repo to true and turning off pve_addons_remove_enterprise_repo.

• The pve_addons_remove_subscription_nag setting removes subscription warnings in the Proxmox user interface.

Dependencies

None.
