[TODO] Proxmox install script for standalone

[Nerivec]

@MickLesk I'm not well-versed in proxmox at all, but figured an install scripts for WindFront standalone might be worth being investigated.
The very "base" should look something like this as far as I can tell:

#!/usr/bin/env bash

source /dev/stdin <<<"$FUNCTIONS_FILE_PATH"
color
verb_ip6
catch_errors
setting_up_container
network_check
update_os

msg_info "Installing Dependencies"
$STD apt-get install -y nginx
msg_ok "Installed Dependencies"

NODE_VERSION="22" setup_nodejs

fetch_and_deploy_gh_release "WindFront" "Nerivec/zigbee2mqtt-windfront" "tarball" "latest" "/opt/zigbee2mqtt-windfront"

msg_info "Building WindFront"
cd /opt/zigbee2mqtt-windfront
$STD npm ci
$STD NODE_ENV=production VITE_Z2M_API_URLS=<var1> VITE_Z2M_API_NAMES=<var2> npm run build
msg_ok "Built WindFront"

msg_info "Configure Nginx"
rm -rf /usr/share/nginx/html
ln -s /opt/zigbee2mqtt-windfront/dist /usr/share/nginx/html
systemctl restart nginx
msg_ok "Configured Nginx"

motd_ssh
customize

msg_info "Cleaning up"
$STD apt-get -y autoremove
$STD apt-get -y autoclean
msg_ok "Cleaned"

I however don't know how variables should be passed to the script by the user properly (I assume this is possible?):
VITE_Z2M_API_URLS=<var1> VITE_Z2M_API_NAMES=<var2>
And the script probably needs a few fixes. I cannot test any of this 😬
Might also be better with alpine instead, lighter.

Let me know what you think.
Feel free to take it, modify it, publish it... 😉

By the way, I was glancing at community-scripts/ProxmoxVE#410 This does not appear to support the new Onboarding feature introduced a while back (would have to remove the .yaml copy from the install script and let Z2M create the default then show onboarding). Is that on purpose (not desired)?

[MickLesk]

This is not an big topic in itself, but why should it be standalone? Isn't the z2m script that you customize in the frontend area enough?

For Special Things we use the read -rp command, to set values with sed

What do you mean with onboarding?

[Nerivec]

Standalone WindFront allows users to connect a single frontend instance to multiple Z2M instances (with a switch in the UI to quickly swap). It runs completely independently from Z2M.
It also allows better customization for more advanced use cases since it's just an nginx server with the built frontend files served through it.

Built-in interface that detects serial, mDNS, and allow setting the basic configs. It also automatically creates a default configuration.yaml file on first startup. https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/guide/getting-started/#onboarding
