✅ Have you read and understood the above guidelines?

No command but script will need to either be updated very soon or taken down until all name changes have gone into effect

📝 Provide a clear and concise description of the issue.

This is more for or less not an issue but will be an issue very soon and want the maintainera to know.

Hoarder is changing names to Karakeep per their reddit post

https://www.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/s/obHUAkKcdB

Name change will more than likely break script and updates.

⚙️ What settings are you using?

Default Settings
Advanced Settings

🖥️ Which Linux distribution are you using?

Debian 12

@MohamedBassem You are active, and the developer. What do we need to be prepared for? General changes to the script or just the name change?

@MickLesk Technically, the script should continue working as is without any problems. Even the old repo links will redirect to the new ones so nothing should break.

So from that angle, it'll probably be just a name change. However, when we do the name change in the script, we'll need to be careful not to break existing installations during updates.

Ah I see, it seems that those two lines, github.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE@b395a1846c/install/hoarder-install.sh (L65-L66) will need to be updated. The zip archive used to unzip to hoarder-${RELEASE}, now it unzips to karakeep-${RELEASE}.

Also, we should seriously consider not nuking the old installation until the new one is ready and ready to replace the old one. Basically preparing the new installation in a temp dir, and only stopping the services when the temp dir is ready to be renamed to /opt/hoarder.

@MickLesk That was fast! I'll have a look in the next two days (if you don't mind).

In the meanwhile, how about we send a quick fix for mv hoarder-${RELEASE} /opt/hoarder to be mv karakeep-${RELEASE} /opt/hoarder to prevent further breakages to people's installations until the full migration lands?

This may break all the services and env files.

Maybe I'll split the PR (Kakakeep as “new script” and remove the update function from Hoarder first)

@MickLesk I don't think it will. It's basically just the zipped directory's name got changed when you unzip the release files from github. This change doesn't touch any of the persistent files (notice how the release is still being copied to /opt/hoarder).

For anyone like @antibyte @divemasterjm who's stuck with a non functional hoarder install after trying to update using the existing script, this is how I got it working:

Logged into the LXC

 mv /opt/karakeep-* /opt/hoarder

And then executed the rest of the script https://raw.githubusercontent.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE/main/install/hoarder-install.sh manually line by line, starting with cd /opt/hoarder.

Thank you. It isn't clear whether the script would actually work for someone stuck midway - it had removed hoarder without updating.

Thank you. I try it again two more times as hoarder.sh and it finished the update to Karakeep v0.23.1 and is working.

Hi there,
arriving here from reddit, sent by MohamedBassem himself!
I experience the following when running bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE/main/ct/karakeep.sh)":
✖️ No karakeep Installation Found!
It obviously makes sense as the script wants to work directories called karakeep while it is still all called hoarder.
I sense it should be easy enough to just rename all important parts to karakeep.
Can someone please nudge me into the right direction of what these renamings should be?

Which one is the correct script to use?
When I bash hoarder-linux.sh update it returns

Checking for an update...
Caught error 1 on line 258

To clarify: hoarder-linux.sh is the script that was installed on initial install.
As far as I understood, running hoarder-linux.sh update would be the regular method as intended originally?

This is indeed a file directly from karakeep and is used for bare metal installations. As the paths are at least partly different, it can't be used with community scripts.
