Installation Guide
Quick Install
The official installer automatically detects your environment and chooses the best installation method:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rcourtman/Pulse/main/install.sh | sudo bash
Installation Methods
Proxmox VE Hosts

- Installs Pulse inside the container
- Configures networking and security
Quick Mode (recommended):
- 1GB RAM, 4GB disk, 2 CPU cores
- Unprivileged container with firewall
- Auto-starts with your host
- Takes about 1 minute
Advanced Mode:
- Customize all container settings
- Choose specific network bridges and storage
- Configure static IP if needed
Standard Linux Systems
On Debian/Ubuntu systems, the installer:
- Installs required dependencies
- Downloads the latest Pulse binary
- Creates a systemd service
- Starts Pulse automatically
Docker
For containerized deployments:
docker run -d -p 7655:7655 -v pulse_data:/data rcourtman/pulse:latest
See Docker Guide for advanced options.
