Release v2.1.4

Version 2.0 is an architectural refactor that provides comprehensive utility frameworks, standardizes script behavior across the entire codebase, and adds remote cluster management capabilities.

Key Improvements:

Unified Utility Framework

  • ArgumentParser.sh - Standardized argument parsing with built-in validation, automatic help text generation, and support for common types (vmid, string, integer, boolean, range)
  • BulkOperations.sh - Unified framework for bulk VM/LXC operations with consistent error handling, progress reporting, and operation summaries
  • Operations.sh (formerly ProxmoxAPI.sh) - Centralized Proxmox API wrapper functions for VM/LXC operations, disk management, and pool operations
  • Network.sh - Network utility functions for IP validation, manipulation, and network configuration
  • TestFramework.sh - Comprehensive testing framework with unit testing, integration testing, and automated testing

Remote Cluster Management

  • Execute scripts on single or multiple Proxmox nodes without re-downloading the repository
  • Temporary multi-remote mode supporting IP ranges (192.168.1.100-200) or VMID ranges
  • Dual log output with separate .log and .debug.log files for structured logging (local and remote)
  • Debug flag support (./GUI.sh -d) for detailed remote execution logging
  • Interrupt handling (Ctrl+C) cleanly cancels remaining nodes during remote operations

Comprehensive Testing System

  • Test suites for all major utility frameworks (_TestArgumentParser.sh, _TestBulkOperations.sh, _TestNetwork.sh, _TestOperations.sh, _TestStateManager.sh)
  • RunAllTests.sh for automated test execution across all utilities
  • Integration test examples demonstrating proper framework usage
  • Unit testing capabilities with assertion functions and result reporting

Script Compliance Standards

  • All scripts refactored with consistent headers: shebang -> documentation -> Function Index -> set -euo pipefail -> code
  • Standardized set -euo pipefail for robust error handling (fixed duplicates and misplaced commands)
  • All bulk operation scripts (80+ files) migrated to use ArgumentParser and BulkOperations frameworks
  • Consistent error handling and user feedback across entire codebase
  • Automated source dependency verification with VerifySourceCalls.py

Quality Assurance Tools

  • Enhanced .check/_RunChecks.sh with better validation and reporting
  • UpdateUtilityDocumentation.py for automatic utility function documentation
  • VerifySourceCalls.py with fix mode for adding/removing dependencies and shellcheck directives
  • _ScriptComplianceChecklist.md for code quality verification

Cross-Platform GUI Improvements

  • Auto-detects package manager (apt, dnf, yum, zypper, pacman) for any Linux distribution
  • Polymorphic menu system with centralized common operations (settings, help, back, exit)
  • Branch management accessible from all menus
  • Simplified navigation with consistent input prompts
  • Parameter history with readline shortcuts

New Utility Scripts

  • VirtualMachines/Operations/BulkHibernate.sh, BulkSuspend.sh, BulkResume.sh
  • VirtualMachines/Hardware/BulkToggleTabletPointer.sh
  • VirtualMachines/Storage/BulkConfigureDisk.sh
  • Storage/AddStorage.sh (NFS, SMB/CIFS, PBS support)
  • Storage/RemoveStorage.sh (safe removal with usage checks)
