-qemu-server/pve2
-vncterm/pve2
-pve-manager/pve2
-pve-kernel-2.6.32-rh/pve2
-
-Most source can be installed with 'make dinstall' command.
+= Setup PVE Development Environment =
+
+1. Install Debian 'jessie'
+2. Configure pvetest repository in apt sources.list
+
+ deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian jessie pvetest
+
+3. Add our repository key with apt-key:
+
+ wget -O- "http://download.proxmox.com/debian/key.asc" | apt-key add -
+
+4. make sure you have a read IP address for your hostname in /etc/hosts
+ (using 127.0.1.1 will not work)
+
+5. run: apt-get update
+6. run: apt-get dist-upgrade
+7. run: apt-get install proxmox-ve
+
+You should now have a working Proxmox VE installation.

+= Compile PVE packages from Source =
+
+Download and install the following git modules in order from top to bottom:
+
+# git clone git://git.proxmox.com/git/<PACKAGE.git>
+
+You currently need the following packages:
+
+libqb.git
+corosync-pve.git
+pve-common.git
+pve-docs.git
+pve-cluster.git
+lvm.git
+pve-access-control.git

+ksm-control-daemon.git
+pve-container.git
+pve-firewall.git
+pve-kernel.git
+
+Most packages can be installed with 'make dinstall' command.
4. Reboot the system.
5. Learn to use the quilt patch scripts.
There is an experimental package containing the API documentation
as ExtJS application:
-pve2-api-doc/trunk
+pve2-api-doc.git
+You can view the source code at:
-REST vs. SOAP
-=============
+https://git.proxmox.com
+
+
+= REST vs. SOAP =
We decided to change our SOAP API (1.X) and use a REST like API. The
concept is described in [1] (Resource Oriented Architecture
REST API using JSON. So we were able to remove the server side
template toolkit completely.
-JSON and JSON Schema
-====================
+= JSON and JSON Schema =
We use JSON as data format, because it is simple and parse-able by any
web browser.
we can automatically generate the whole API Documentation, and we can
verify all parameters and return values.
-An great side effect was that we are able to use JSON Schema to
+A great side effect was that we are able to use JSON Schema to
produce command line argument parsers automatically. In fact, the REST
API and the command line tools use the same code.
- automatic generation of API documentation
- easy way to create command line tools (using same API).
-API Implementation (PVE::RESTHandler)
-=====================================
+= API Implementation (PVE::RESTHandler) =
All classes exposing methods on the API use PVE::RESTHandler as base class.
The HTTP server use the URL (a path) to find the corresponding method.
