Eco

GitHub: https://github.com/IPS-Hosting/game-images/tree/main/eco

Basic usage

For advanced usage, refer to https://docs.docker.com

# Create the docker container
docker create -it --restart always \
  --name eco-server \
  -p 3000:3000/udp \
  -p 3001:3001/tcp \
  ipshosting/game-eco:v1

# Start the server
docker start eco-server

# Stop the server
docker stop eco-server

# Restart the server
docker restart eco-server

# View server logs
docker logs eco-server

# Attach to server console to write commands and see output in realtime (de-attach by pressing CTRL-P + CTRL-Q).
docker attach eco-server

# Remove the container
docker rm eco-server

Commands

By default, when starting the container, it will be installed and updated, and the eco Server is started afterwards. You can create a container with a different command to change this behaviour:

  • update Only install the latest version of the server. It won't be started and the container will exit after the eco server is installed and updated.
  • update_validate Same like update but will also validate the files. Recommended for the initial installation of the server.
  • start Only start the eco server without installing or updating.

Data persistence

Game server data is kept in /home/ips-hosting. By default a volume will be auto-created which will persist the game server data across server restarts. When you re-create the container, a new volume is created and you can't access the old data unless you manually mount the old volume. See https://docs.docker.com/storage/volumes/ for more information.

To persist the game server data on the host filesystem, use -v /absolute/path/on/host:/home/ips-hosting when creating the docker container. The container is run as a non-root user by default and the user running inside the container has the id 1000. Make sure that the mounted directory is readable and writable by the user running the container. There are 2 ways to achieve this:

  • Change the owner of the host directory: chown -R 1000 /absolute/path/on/host OR
  • Run the container as the user, which owns the files on the host system. Make sure to specify the id of your local user, because the name is uknown inside the container. You can find it out using id YOUR_USERNAME. Then run the docker command using the --user USER_ID flag. E.g.: docker create --user 500 ....

Ports

  • 3000/udp (game)
  • 3001/tcp (web)

To use another port (e.g. to run multiple Eco servers on the same machine), change the docker port mapping when creating the container.

Env variables

Env variables can be configured with the -e "KEY=VAL" flag when creating the container. The flag can be used multiple times. To change the env variables, you need to re-create the container.

update and update_validate

The following env variables are available during update and update_validate.

BETA_BRANCH Used to download a different branch of the server.

BETA_PASSWORD The password for the beta branch.
