Builds an advanced docker image that can run a Rust dedicated Server under Linux with Wine.
Info: The default port of Rust is 28015 and the RCON port is 28016.
The Log- and Config-Path is /var/rust/rustserver/.
For this container an empty skel template and the user and group rust with uid and gid 556 is required
Create empty skel
mkdir /etc/skel_empty
Create user
groupadd -r -g 556 rust && useradd -u 556 -r -g rust -d /data -k /etc/skel_empty -m -s /sbin/nologin rust
To create the docker image execute
docker build -t bechof/rust .
Running the docker container is done by
docker run -u 556 -d -p=28015:28015/udp -p=28016:28016/udp -p=28015:28015/tcp -p=28016:28016/tcp -v=/var/rust:/data --name "rust" bechof/rust:latest
Now there is an autoupdate-script for updating the server. The Script checks the Log.Log.txt if an update is available. Than it checks the systemctl-status of rust if it's running or not. In the next task there is a check of possible online players. If there is someone they will get two text messages in chat, that there are maintenance and in a few minutes they can continue playing. Old docker container and images gets deleted, old logs gets moved to old_logs-Folder, than the build-process starts and rust is starting again.
Add the rust_update.sh script in the crontab like you want. Recommended is a start every full hour.
Before starting the script it must be prepared in this sections:

Note: In the ingame chat from Rust there will be wrote "SERVER" before the MESSAGE1 and 2 will appear. MAIL1 and MAIL2 must be updated with your correct mail data.
