V Rising Docker Linux

Docker container for linux vrising server

using Wine in an ubuntu container

This isn't really meant to be a guide, just publishing because at the moment not much info on setting this up out there. I'm no docker expert so there's probably a better way to go about this. Sorry if these steps aren't 100% accurate:

1. Clone the repo
   git clone https://github.com/Googlrr/V-Rising-Docker-Linux

2. CD to the directory
   cd V-Rising-Docker-Linux

3. Modify the ServerGameSettings.json and ServerHostSettings.json to your liking.

4. Move the files in settings/ to a new location (e.g. /opt/vrising/settings/).

5. Modify docker compose and set the save and settings volumes according to step 4 (e.g. /opt/vrising/settings and /opt/vrising/server)

6. Start the server
   sudo docker-compose up -d

Really messy setup but this was the only way I could figure out how to work it lol. Never used Wine before. Hope for a native linux server soon!

Updating the server

Before and after updating the server it might be sensible to check the currently running version:
docker logs vrising-server | grep "VRisingServer v" -A1 | tail -2

This container only downloads/updates the server application when /root/.wine/drive_c/steamcmd/steaminstalled.txt (which is created on first startup) does not exist inside the container. There are two ways to update the server:

• docker exec vrising-server rm /root/.wine/drive_c/steamcmd/steaminstalled.txt && docker restart vrising-server
  to delete the file and restart the container, which updates the already installed server.

• docker-compose up --build -d
  to recreate the container from scratch without steaminstalled.txt.
