Original Pull Request: https://github.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE/pull/6574

State: closed
Merged: Yes


✍️ Description

Updates Pulse installation scripts to support v4, which is a complete rewrite in Go. The current scripts attempt to install v4 as a Node.js application, resulting in broken installations.

What this fixes:

  • Pulse v4 is now downloaded as a universal package (not Node.js)
  • Uses the built-in installer script included with v4
  • Preserves data directory during updates
  • Removes Node.js dependencies for v4 installations

Why this is critical:

  • Pulse v4.0.0 is already released
  • Current scripts create broken installations for all new users
  • v4 offers 87% less memory usage and 3x faster startup

Prerequisites (X in brackets)

  • No security risks – No hardcoded secrets, unnecessary privilege escalations, or permission issues.

🛠️ Type of Change (X in brackets)

  • 🐞 Bug fix – Resolves an issue without breaking functionality.

  • 🌍 Website update – Changes to website-related JSON files or metadata.
  • 🔧 Refactoring / Code Cleanup – Improves readability or maintainability without changing functionality.
  • 📝 Documentation update – Changes to README, AppName.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, or other docs.

Testing performed:

  • Fresh v4 installation works correctly
  • Updates between v4 versions preserve configuration
  • Data directory is preserved during updates
  • Service starts and runs properly after installation
