Game Controller

Game Controller is a second part of Game Service.

Unlike other projects of the platform, this project uses Docker. To install it on any host, install docker first, then create this Dockerfile:

FROM anthillplatform/game-controller:latest
... extra deps for your game you might be having ...
COPY brainout/anthill.pub ./
ENV connection_password=<password>
ENTRYPOINT [ "python", \
    "-m", "anthill.game.controller.server", \
    "--auth-key-public=anthill.pub", \
    "--discovery-service=https://<your public discovery service>", \
    "--connection-username=<username>", \
    "--connection-gamespace=<gamespace-alias>"]

Make sure to pup anthill.pub next to it. Then run:

docker build -t anthill-game-controller .

Once the image is built, run it:

docker run -d --name anthill-game-controller \
    --network host --hostname `hostname` --restart=always -i \
    -v /var/log/gameserver:/var/log/gameserver \
    -v /usr/local/anthill:/usr/local/anthill \
    anthill-game-controller

You now can see logs via docker logs --follow <container-id>. Logs for the game servers themselves can bee seen on /var/log/gameserver.
