LXC Proxmox compatibility without docker required

[kendikaku]

Hello, thank you for the great work you did on this project. Could you tell me if there is a way to create a version compatible with proxmox scripts like these? https://community-scripts.github.io/ProxmoxVE/scripts

It might be possible to get it working but I have no experience with proxmox. However, PRs are welcome. I think it would be easier to do when running as a systemd service is working (#108)

Since there is a pip package, you can simply install it in an LXC.
Here as an example with alpine as LXC OS, I typed this quickly from memory. no guarantee :)

apk update
apk upgrade
apk add python3 py3-uv
mkdir -p /opt/isponsorblocktv
mkdir -p /var/lib/isponsorblocktv
addgroup -S isponsorblocktv
adduser -S -h /var/lib/isponsorblocktv -D -g isponsorblocktv -G isponsorblocktv isponsorblocktv
chown -R isponsorblocktv:isponsorblocktv /opt/isponsorblocktv
chown -R isponsorblocktv:isponsorblocktv /var/lib/isponsorblocktv
cd /opt/isponsorblocktv
su isponsorblocktv -s /bin/sh -c "uv venv /opt/isponsorblocktv"
su isponsorblocktv -s /bin/sh -c "uv pip install iSponsorBlockTV"
su isponsorblocktv -s /bin/sh -c "/opt/isponsorblocktv/bin/iSponsorBlockTV --setup --data /var/lib/isponsorblocktv"

Initscript /etc/init.d/isponsorblocktv

#!/sbin/openrc-run

name="iSponsorBlockTV"
command="/opt/isponsorblocktv/bin/iSponsorBlockTV"
command_args="--data $DATA_DIR"
command_user="$RC_SVCNAME:$RC_SVCNAME"
command_background=true
output_log="/var/log/$RC_SVCNAME.log"
pidfile="/var/run/$RC_SVCNAME.pid"

depend() {
        need net
}

start_pre() {
        checkpath --file --owner $command_user --mode 0644 \
                "$pidfile" \
                "$output_log"
}

Initscript config /etc/conf.d/isponsorblocktv

DATA_DIR="/var/lib/isponsorblocktv"

Startup

chmod +x /etc/init.d/isponsorblocktv
rc-update add isponsorblocktv default
rc-service isponsorblocktv start

Update when new release is available

rc-service isponsorblocktv stop
cd /opt/isponsorblocktv
su isponsorblocktv -s /bin/sh -c "uv pip install iSponsorBlockTV --upgrade"
rc-service isponsorblocktv start
