## Basic info
When managing big Proxmox VE clusters its hard to remember on which node LXC/KVM instance is located. Of course, you can just use a web-interface to find it, but I think it would be nice to have the ability to do it from the terminal.

## Installation
Just put binary anywhere you need it and give execution permission to it (`chmod +x`). To make it available system-wide you can just put it in someplace from your $PATH (ex. /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin).

***ATTENTION***: You must run pve-search on the cluster node in which you want to perform a search.

## Usage
To search instances across cluster simply run `pve-search [GoRegexp for name]`, e.g. if you want to search cluster for some instance, that have "load-balancer" in its name, just run `pve-search load-balancer`, it will give you something like this:

You can use different sorting keys with `--sort [key]` flag. Valid keys are: cpu, mem, vmname, vmid, node. By default it sorts results in descending order, to sort by ascending use `--asc` flag. Also, you can output values in plain text, using `--asc` flag. You can also apply additional filters with `--state` `--type` and `--vmid` flag followed by goregexp. You can read about regexp syntax [Here](https://github.com/google/re2/wiki/Syntax).
Also, you can output results in space-separated values using `--text` flag. In this case, values will be in the same order, as in the table, but data values such as free memory or free disk will be in bytes instead of megabytes
