What the curl command does (when you run curl URL | bash):
curl -sSL https://git.innovator.bh/TAKEONE/proxmox-lxc-dotnet-postgres-api/raw/branch/main/installation/install.sh | bash
- Downloads your installation script (
install.sh) from your Git repository.
- Executes the script immediately in the shell (
bash).
- The script itself will:
- Update system packages.
- Install prerequisites, .NET 8 runtime and SDK.
- Install PostgreSQL and start its service.
- Create PostgreSQL user (
api) and database (apidatabase) with password abcd1234.
- Create and prepare the
/opt/api directory.
- Create a systemd service unit to run your .NET Web API DLL.
- Enable and start the systemd service automatically.
What remains for you to do manually:
- Copy your published .NET Web API application files (DLL,
appsettings.json, etc.) into the directory /opt/api. The script pauses and waits for you to do this before continuing.
- Optionally, customize the script or paths if your setup differs.
- Test your API endpoints with curl or Postman after service starts.
- Optionally configure reverse proxy, firewalls, or SSL certificates if needed.
