== Running in docker == | |||
** WARNING - this is currently under development, consider this experimental ** | |||
If you have docker installed or are willing to do so, there are pre-built docker images available at [https://cloud.docker.com/u/flightgear/repository/docker/flightgear/fgms/ The docker hub]. There are images for amd64/linux systems as well as for raspberry pis running arm/linux. Sorry, no windows based binaries are currently available. | |||
Installing docker on any linux or the pi is as easy as | |||
:<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">curl -sSL https://get.docker.com | sh</syntaxhighlight> | |||
and adding your user to the docker group. | |||
If you have docker running, you are all set to start your multiplayer-server for localhost usage: | |||
:<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">docker run -p5000:5000/udp -p5001:5001 flightgear/fgms:0.13.4</syntaxhighlight> | |||
This starts fgms in local-lan mode, redirects the log to the console and exposes ports 5000 and 5001 to your local loopback network. | |||
To use your own fgms.conf, simply link it into the container like | |||
:<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">docker run -p5000:5000/udp -p5001:5001 -v /path/to/my/fgms.conf:/usr/local/etc/fgms.conf:ro flightgear/fgms:0.13.4</syntaxhighlight> | |||
where /path/to/my/fgms.conf is the absolute path name of your fgms.conf. You MUST use absolute paths names. | |||
The docker image wraps the fgms binary so you can add any command line option that fgms accepts: | |||
:<syntaxhighlight lang="bash"> | |||
$ docker run flightgear/fgms:0.13.4 -h | |||
fgms: version 0.13.4, compiled on Apr 13 2019, at 09:11:11 | |||
options are: | |||
-h print this help screen | |||
-a PORT listen to PORT for telnet | |||
-c config read 'config' as configuration file | |||
-p PORT listen to PORT | |||
-t TTL Time a client is active while not sending packets | |||
-o OOR nautical miles two players must be apart to be out of reach | |||
-l LOGFILE Log to LOGFILE | |||
-v LEVEL verbosity (loglevel) in range 0 (few) and 4 (much). 5 to disable. (def=2) | |||
-d do _not_ run as a daemon (stay in foreground) | |||
-D do run as a daemon | |||
the default is to run as a daemon, which can be overridden in the | |||
config file. | |||
syntax: /usr/local/sbin/fgms options | |||
