OpenRCT2 Plugin Repository

A place where users can share OpenRCT2 plugins

Live at https://openrct2plugins.org

For now, users can submit plugis hosted on GitHub repos. There is a button in the top right to submit links, without needing to log in.

There is server side validation to make sure it's a https://github.com link. I'm alsothinking about adding validation to check if the repo has rct2 or OpenRCT2 in the tags, but not everyone uses tags.

There is basic listing (sorting new and rating, which is based on when users submitted the plug-in, and how many stars it has on GitHub), also a basic search functionality.

Users can also check details about the plug-in (which is basicallt the README.md form the GitHub repo), and also list plugins by user (by clicking on their profiles)

Setup:

Development:

Edit your /etc/hosts and add the line:

127.0.0.1 openrct2plugins.test pma.openrct2plugins.test traefik.openrct2plugins.test portainer.openrct2plugins.test

Create a GitHub Access Token with the public_repo option.
Copy docker/template.env to docker/.env and edit it with your GitHub Token
cd into ./docker and run make setup (if you get a mysql error 2002, wait a bit (mysql is still starting up), and run make import-schema again)

You should now be able to acess the page at http://openrct2plugins.test

Prod:

Prod is running on port 4000, so it requires a reverse proxy pointing to that server (example for NGINX is in docker/nginx/prod/reverse-proxy.conf)

Aside from that is pretty much the same process:

Copy docker/template.env to docker/.env and edit it with your GitHub Token, and also change the MySQL password
cd into ./docker
Run make redeploy-prod
Import the DB schema with make import-schema (might need to change the password for this one)
Traefik should automatically install the SSL certificates
