• getError() (string) : Get error.
• getResponseHeaders() (string) : Gets the raw HTTP headers associated with this response.

• Implementation respect the Api structure of Proxmox VE
• Method named
• Set ResponseType json, png
• Full method generated from documentation
• Comment any method and parameters
• Parameters indexed eg [n] is structured in array index and value
• Tree structure
  • $client->getNodes()->get(“pve1”)->getQemu()->get(100)->getSnapshot()->snapshotList()->getResponse()->data
• Return data proxmox
• Return result
  • Request
  • Response
  • Status
• Wait task finish task
  • waitForTaskToFinish
  • taskIsRunning
  • getExitStatusTask
• Method direct access
  • get
  • set
  • create
  • delete
• Login return bool if access
• Return Result class more information
• Return object/array data
  • default object disable from client.setResultIsObject(false)

In the root of your project execute the following:

composer require Corsinvest/cv4pve-api-php

Or add this to your composer.json

Usage

<?php
// Require the autoloader
require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';
//if you want use lite version only get/set/create/delete use PveClientBase
$client = new Corsinvest\ProxmoxVE\Api\PveClient("192.168.0.24");
//login check bool
if($client->login('root','password','pam')){
  //get version from get method
  var_dump($client->get('/version')->getResponse());
  // $client->put
  // $client->post
  // $client->delete
  $retPippo=$client->get("/pippo");
  echo "\n" . $retPippo->getStatusCode();
  echo "\n" . $retPippo->getReasonPhrase();
  //loop nodes
  foreach ($client->getNodes()->Index()->getResponse()->data as $node) {
    echo "\n" . $node->id;
  }
  //loop vm
  foreach ($client->getNodes()->get("pve1")->getQemu()->Vmlist()->getResponse()->data as $vm) {
      echo "\n" . $vm->vmid ." - " .$vm->name;
  }
  //loop snapshots
  foreach ($client->getNodes()->get("pve1")->getQemu()->get(100)->getSnapshot()->snapshotList()->getResponse()->data as $snap) {
    echo "\n" . $snap->name;
  }
  //return object
  var_dump($client->getVersion()->version()->getResponse());
  //disable return object
  $client->setResultIsObject(false);
  //return array
  $retArr = $client->getVersion()->version()->getResponse();
  var_dump($retArr);
  echo "\n" . $retArr['data']['release'];
  //enable return objet
  $client->setResultIsObject(true);
  //image rrd
  $client->setResponseType('png');
  echo "<img src='{$client->getNodes()->get("pve1")->getRrd()->rrd('cpu','day')->getResponse()}' \>";
  //result json result
  $client->setResponseType('json');
  var_dump($client->get('/version')->getResponse());
  //set connection timeout (by default no timeout)
  $client->setTimeout(2)->get('/version')->getResponse();
}

Sample output version request:

//object result
var_dump($client->getVersion()->Version()->getResponse());
object(stdClass)#9 (1) {
  ["data"]=>
  object(stdClass)#32 (4) {
    ["version"]=>
    string(3) "5.0"
    ["release"]=>
    string(2) "31"
    ["keyboard"]=>
    string(2) "it"
    ["repoid"]=>
    string(8) "27769b1f"
  }
}
//disable return object
$client->setResultIsObject(false);
//array result
var_dump($client->getVersion()->Version());
array(1) {
  ["data"]=>
  array(4) {
    ["repoid"]=>
    string(8) "2560e073"
    ["release"]=>
    string(2) "32"
    ["version"]=>
    string(3) "5.0"
    ["keyboard"]=>
    string(2) "it"
  }
}

The parameter indexed end with ‘[n]’ in documentation (method createVM in Qemu parameter ide) require array whit key and value

[
  1 => "....",
  3 => "....",
]

Usage with API-token instead username/password

<?php
// Require the autoloader
require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';
//if you want use lite version only get/set/create/delete use PveClientBase
$client = new Corsinvest\ProxmoxVE\Api\PveClient("hostname", "8006");
$client->setApiToken("root@pam!mytokenname=<TOKEN COMES HERE>");
echo $client->getVersion();
