Have you read and understood the above guidelines?

yes

📜 What is the name of the script you are using?

nginxproxymanager

📂 What was the exact command used to execute the script?

NA

⚙️ What settings are you using?

  • Default Settings
  • Advanced Settings

🖥️ Which Linux distribution are you using?

Debian 12

📝 Provide a clear and concise description of the issue.

Currently

https://github.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE/blob/main/install/nginxproxymanager-install.sh#L48-L58

forces an ancient version of node & pnpm

The official images (a bit of a search) seem to use Node 20 (github.com/NginxProxyManager/docker-nginx-full@d055da8a90/docker/Dockerfile.certbot-node (L12)).

Propose to use

NODE_VERSION="20" NODE_MODULE="pnpm@latest" setup_nodejs

for Nginx Proxy Manager?

(and confusingly nginx proxy manager is abbreviated as npm, which makes searching for which npm is installed fun)

🔄 Steps to reproduce the issue.

type update in LXC, see ancient version of NPM being used

Paste the full error output (if available).

NA

🖼️ Additional context (optional).

No response

Doesnt work with node20, try this the last 6 months. Only work with 16 because there old deps
=> deprecated APIs (Buffer, crypto, etc.),
=> Build-Tool node-gyp failed

Ah, that's a bummer, thanks for your fast reply! Weird that the official docker image uses node 20...

Only the certbot instance (extra instance)... so npm himself use 16. The repo mixes a lot of deps and versions, it's a mess.
