rcourtman ee9c63c880 Add jq dependency and fix secondary node support in sensor-proxy installer
Related to #738

Fixes two issues discovered by k5madsen:

1. Missing jq dependency: The sensor wrapper script uses jq extensively to
   parse SMART data JSON from smartctl but the installer never checked if
   jq was installed. Added jq to REQUIRED_CMDS list.

2. Secondary node support: When running on a secondary Proxmox cluster node
   where the container doesn't exist locally, the script now:
   - Warns instead of failing with "Container does not exist"
   - Continues installation for host temperature monitoring
   - Skips container-specific socket mount configuration

This allows users to run the installer on all cluster nodes (as intended)
to ensure the sensor-proxy service is available when containers migrate.

🚀 Overview

Pulse is a modern, unified dashboard for your Proxmox and Docker estate. It consolidates metrics, logs, and alerts from Proxmox VE, Proxmox Backup Server, Proxmox Mail Gateway, and standalone Docker hosts into a single, beautiful interface.

Designed for homelabs, sysadmins, and MSPs who need a "single pane of glass" without the complexity of enterprise monitoring stacks.

Pulse Dashboard

Features

  • Unified Monitoring: View health and metrics for PVE, PBS, PMG, and Docker containers in one place.
  • Smart Alerts: Get notified via Discord, Slack, Telegram, Email, and more when things go wrong (e.g., "VM down", "Storage full").
  • Auto-Discovery: Automatically finds Proxmox nodes on your network.
  • Secure by Design: Credentials encrypted at rest, no external dependencies, and strict API scoping.
  • Backup Explorer: Visualize backup jobs and storage usage across your entire infrastructure.
  • Privacy Focused: No telemetry, no phone-home, all data stays on your server.
  • Lightweight: Built with Go and React, running as a single binary or container.

Quick Start

Run this one-liner on your Proxmox host to create a lightweight LXC container:

curl -fsSL https://github.com/rcourtman/Pulse/releases/latest/download/install.sh | bash

Option 2: Docker

docker run -d \
  --name pulse \
  -p 7655:7655 \
  -v pulse_data:/data \
  --restart unless-stopped \
  rcourtman/pulse:latest

Access the dashboard at http://<your-ip>:7655.
