LinuxGSM Docker Container

LinuxGSM is the command-line tool for quick, simple deployment and management of Linux dedicated game servers.

This docker image is under development and not officialy supported.

A dockerised version of LinuxGSM https://linuxgsm.com Dockerhub https://hub.docker.com/r/gameservermanagers/linuxgsm-docker/

How to use:

1. Choose your servercode and replace in below
2. start docker-compose -f examples/SERVER.yml up -d, if the server needs credentials there will be placeholders in the compose.
3. get config location docker exec -it lgsm-SERVER-1 details
4. copy your own config into: docker cp my_local_config.txt lgsm-SERVER-1:/config_location_from_step_3
5. print config content docker exec lgsm-SERVER-1 cat /config_location_from_step_3
6. stop with:
   • Stopping container and keep files docker-compose -f examples/SERVER.yml down or docker stop lgsm-SERVER-1
   • Stopping container and remove files docker-compose -f examples/SERVER.yml down --volumes

Overview

• build with ./test/single.sh --build-only servercode
• test with ./test/single.sh servercode
• get help ./test/single.sh --help
• LinuxGSM monitor executed every few seconds as health check
• docker stop CONTAINER is redirected to lgsm-stop
• docker logs CONTAINER show the game server log
• docker exec -it CONTAINER --help every linuxgsm command is available in two forms e.g. lgsm-update and update. Available commands differ for different servercodes.

How to configure LinuxGSM in docker?

You can configure LinuxGSM and some gameservers(alpha state) with environment variables directly. E.g. you want to set steamuser / steampass which is a LinuxGSM option:

• CONFIG_steamuser=... its checked if this variable exists before its set, container will exit very early if the configuration option isn't already part of _default.cfg
• CONFIGFORCED_steamuser=... The variable will be set always, no check done.
• These options will be written to the instance.cfg, thereforce you can use it to set options like CONFIG_startparameters, CONFIG_discordalert and so on.

How to use cronjobs?

You can create cron jobs with environment variables. CRON_update_daily=0 7 * * * update will create a cronjob which will check for updates once a day.

Example ahl2server yml:

volumes:
  ahl2server-files:

name: lgsm

services:
  ahl2server:
    image: "gameservermanagers/linuxgsm-docker:ahl2server"
    tty: true
    restart: unless-stopped
    environment:
      - "CRON_update_daily=0 7 * * * update"
      - "CONFIGFORCED_steamuser=MySteamName"
      - "CONFIGFORCED_steampass=my steam password"
    volumes:
      - ahl2server-files:/home/linuxgsm
      - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
    ports:
      # Game
      - "27015:27015/udp"
      # Query / RCON
      - "27015:27015/tcp"
      # SourceTV
      - "27020:27020/udp"
      # Client
      - "27005:27005/udp"
