[SOLVED] Proxmox VE and cloud-init snippets etc

Proxmox VE 6.x release includes a feature to add custom cloud-init configs. Unfortunately there is poor documentation, so I had to figure this out by adding pieces of information together.

The custom cloud-init files (user-data, meta-data, network-config)

The cloud-init files need to be stored in a snippet. This is not very well documented:

  1. Go to Storage View -> Storage -> Add -> Directory
  2. Give it an ID such as snippets, and specify any path on your host such as /snippets
  3. Under Content choose Snippets and de-select Disk image (optional)
  4. Upload (scp/rsync/whatever) your user-data, meta-data, network-config files to your proxmox server in /snippets/snippets/ (the directory should be there if you followed steps 1-3)

Building a sqlite DB for the Pwned Passwords data
#!/usr/bin/env python3
# Build a SQLite3 DB for looking up SHA-1 hashes of leaked passwords.
#
# This can be fed the txt file from one of Have I Been Pwned's hash
# lists available from https://haveibeenpwned.com/Passwords -- but any
# text file with line format ``hash-hex:count`` will work.
#
# When run on the v5 hash-ordered SHA-1 file, expect the build to take
# about 35 minutes and produce a 15.7 GiB file (~30.5 bytes per record).

58 bytes of css to look great nearly everywhere

58 bytes of CSS to look great nearly everywhere

When making this website, i wanted a simple, reasonable way to make it look good on most displays. Not counting any minimization techniques, the following 58 bytes worked well for me:

main {
  max-width: 38rem;
  padding: 2rem;
  margin: auto;
}
