- Auto-detects Proxmox VE hosts and creates LXC containers
- Quick mode with sensible defaults (1GB RAM, 4GB disk)
- Advanced mode for full customization
- Automatic cleanup on failure
- Simple 'update' command in containers
- Improved error handling and network detection
- Professional, clean output without verbose noise
- Docker detection to prevent container-in-container
- Removed all references to community scripts
This is now the primary recommended installation method.
- Auto-detect Docker environment and scan common home/office subnets
- Scans 192.168.1.0/24, 192.168.0.0/24, 10.0.0.0/24, 192.168.88.0/24, 172.16.0.0/24
- Removes friction - nodes are discovered automatically without configuration
- DISCOVERY_SUBNET env var now optional (only for non-standard networks)
- Update documentation to reflect automatic discovery
This makes the first-run experience much smoother - users see their
Proxmox nodes immediately without having to figure out subnet configuration.
- Automatically hash plain text API tokens (SHA3-256) and passwords (bcrypt) when loaded from env vars
- Remove unnecessary PULSE_SETUP_TOKEN feature in favor of simpler env var approach
- Remove HandleInitialSetup endpoint - not needed with env var configuration
- Update authentication to always use hashed comparisons (no plain text warnings)
- Update documentation to clearly explain auto-hashing capability
- Maintain backward compatibility with pre-hashed credentials
This makes Pulse secure by default while keeping deployment simple - users can
provide plain text credentials via environment variables and Pulse automatically
hashes them for security.
- Add clear warnings that env vars override UI/system.json settings
- Update log messages to indicate when env vars are overriding values
- Document standard container practice: env vars have highest precedence
- Users must remove env vars to allow UI configuration to take effect
This prevents confusion when UI changes don't work due to env var overrides.
- Re-enable DISCOVERY_SUBNET env var for Docker network configuration
- Re-enable LOG_LEVEL env var for runtime logging control
- Re-enable CONNECTION_TIMEOUT env var for timeout configuration
- Re-enable ALLOWED_ORIGINS env var for CORS configuration
- Update documentation to reflect working env vars
These env vars were accidentally disabled but are useful for Docker deployments.
Env vars override system.json settings when present.
Addresses #214 - user requested DISCOVERY_SUBNET env var support
- Remove all PBS-AGENT.md references (hallucinated feature)
- Fix DISCOVERY_SUBNET env var name in Docker docs (was incorrectly PULSE_DISCOVERY_SUBNET)
- Add DISCOVERY_SUBNET examples to README for Docker users
- Update FAQ to clarify PBS push mode is not supported
Addresses #214 - user reported 404 on PBS-AGENT.md link
- Add clear First-Time Setup section explaining the wizard
- Reorganize to show basic setup first (recommended)
- Move pre-configured auth to Advanced section
- Add troubleshooting for common Docker-specific issues
- Include examples for generating credentials
- Clarify the 206728 escaping requirement in docker-compose.yml
- Add security best practices section
- Remove outdated v3 to v4 migration guide
- Update README with mandatory security setup steps
- Clarify that authentication is now required, not optional
- Update Docker, Security, and Troubleshooting docs
- Remove references to optional authentication
Removed outdated DISCOVERY_SUBNET environment variable references and documented the correct way to configure discovery subnet in Docker containers via system.json. Docker containers detect their internal network by default, so manual configuration is needed for LAN discovery.
- Add pending restart detection when .env exists but not loaded
- Update frontend to show pending state instead of re-showing setup
- Fix QuickSecuritySetup to refresh security status after configuration
- Remove auto-restart attempts from security setup
- Show deployment-appropriate restart instructions
- Update documentation to reflect new update mechanism
Related to security setup issues after removing sudo/auto-restart capabilities
- Add critical docker-compose bcrypt escaping documentation
- Create comprehensive TROUBLESHOOTING.md guide
- Create dedicated DOCKER.md deployment guide
- Update CONFIGURATION.md with service name variations
- Document that .env file is not created when using env vars
- Add warnings about dollar sign escaping in docker-compose.yml
These docs address the main confusion points from recent issues,
especially the docker-compose bcrypt hash problem affecting many users.
