airtonix Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 Calling it now, I'm keen to get the ball rolling on making EpochArma3 available as docker images for all the linux guys out there. When done, Linux server operators can use something like Shipyard to orchestrate the speedy creation of new EpochArma3 instances. Essentially it'll come down to this for installing on a fresh linux installed with docker: $ docker run -T --name myworld-data epoch/epoch-arma3-data --ports $ docker run -T --name myworld --volumes-from=myworld-data epoch/epoch-arma3 or with fig $ wget docker.epoch.com/files/fig/epoch-arma3.yml $ fig build $ fig up bam, new self contained server instance installed and running. Value Created All the things you love about virtual machines without all the overhead. Evidence It seems to be possible, this server status report indicates an arma3 server running in docker. @vbawol, hit me up if if you're interested.

airtonix Posted December 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 So I've spent the last couple of weeks working on creating a base docker image for arma that is as customisable as possible. - ubuntu image - mount your /data in here - steamcmd image - specify your steam username/password here - arma3 image - uses config files from /data - mounts /server as /opt/arma3 - uses steamcmd to install arma3server into /opt/arma3 (if doesn't exist already) I pulled down a copy of the epoch3 server files and here are some suggestions: Critical changes required to work on linux - all folders and filenames need to be lower case (arma3 server does this because it's the easiest way to enforce common naming pattern that works across platforms) - any references to those files/folders of course need to be updated. - bec/plugins/watchdog/__init__.py: - python modules as a rule shouldn't mess with the system path. - when writing out paths, use path.join() (let python decide the appropriate path separator) - use sets rather than lists (they're faster) - don't use print, it mucks with stdout and stderr, use logger so it can be configured to transport into syslog by project integrator - - please tell me you're going to be hosting this on github soon Mr.XXX 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vbawol Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Sounds interesting and certainly worth a try. We have some offers to help out with the native Linux build and we should get started testing a Linux build sometime after we release the 0.3 server update to the public. elbabar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
