# docker-factorio

A small, simple containerized Factorio server that supports interactive and non-interactive server commands. Suitable for local and hosted servers. Simple, low-configuration and highly customizable.

## Building the image
```bash
docker build -t docker-factorio .
```

## Running
On x86 machines:
```bash
docker run --name docker-factorio -itp 34197:34197/udp 6davids/docker-factorio
docker run --name docker-factorio -itdp 34197:34197/udp 6davids/docker-factorio # runs detached
```

On m1 Macs:
```bash
docker run --name docker-factorio -itp 34197:34197/udp --platform linux/amd64 6davids/docker-factorio # ctrl-c kills server
docker run --name docker-factorio -itdp 34197:34197/udp --platform linux/amd64 6davids/docker-factorio # runs detached
```

## Server Commands

Interactive:
```bash
david@focus docker-factorio % # Hop into the container
david@focus docker-factorio % docker exec -it docker-factorio bash
root@docker-factorio:/app
root@docker-factorio:/app # Start Interactive Script
root@docker-factorio:/app ./interact.sh

2022-04-09 06:08:43 [JOIN] david joined the game
sup
2022-04-09 06:08:51 [CHAT] <server>: sup
2022-04-09 06:09:46 [CHAT] david: lol
/kick david lol
```

Non-Interactive (for scripts or one-offs):
```bash
david@focus docker-factorio % # Hop into the container
david@focus docker-factorio % docker exec -it docker-factorio bash
root@docker-factorio:/app # Send commands to the server
root@docker-factorio:/app ./run-command.sh "sup"
2022-04-09 17:03:11 [CHAT] <server>: sup
root@docker-factorio:/app ./run-command.sh "/kick david lol"
2022-04-09 17:03:24 [KICK] david was kicked by <server>. Reason: lol. 1352.490 Info ServerMultiplayerManager.cpp:1061: Disconnect notification for peer (1)
```

Or, if you don't need to see the command output:
```bash
david@focus docker-factorio % # Hop into the container
david@focus docker-factorio % docker exec -it docker-factorio bash
root@docker-factorio:/app # Send commands to the server
root@docker-factorio:/app echo "sup" > ./factorio-server-fifo
root@docker-factorio:/app echo "/kick david lol" > ./factorio-server-fifo
```

## Starting, Stopping, Restarting the Server

The image comes with a few scripts to help managing server execution.

```bash
root@docker-factorio:/app # Hop into the container
david@focus docker-factorio % docker exec -it docker-factorio bash
root@docker-factorio:/app # Stop the factorio server
root@docker-factorio:/app ./stop-server.sh 
Stopping Factorio Server...
Done!
root@docker-factorio:/app # The server starts on it's own, but you can start it again after stopping it.
root@docker-factorio:/app ./start-server.sh 
Starting Factorio Server...
Done!
root@docker-factorio:/app # Cycle the server.  Useful after config changes.
root@docker-factorio:/app ./restart-server.sh 
Stopping Factorio Server...
Done!
Starting Factorio Server...
Done!
```

## Saved Games

By default the container creates a new game and then uses it from then on. If you'd like to use your own games, create two mounts when running the container:
- `/app/factorio/saves/`
- `/app/factorio/last-game.txt`

Drop your save files in the `saves/` directory, and then enter the name of the save file you'd to use into `last-game.txt`

Example: 
```bash
david@focus docker-factorio % cp my-cool-saved-game.zip ~/factorio-stuffs/saved-games/ 
david@focus docker-factorio % echo "my-cool-saved-game.zip" > ~/factorio-stuffs/last-game.txt 
david@focus docker-factorio % # Start the container detached, with ports mounted, and the two binds mentioned above
david@focus docker-factorio % docker run --name docker-factorio -it \
> -d
> -p 34197:34197/udp \
> --mount type=bind,source=~/factorio-stuffs/saved-games,target=/app/factorio/saves \
> --mount type=bind,source=~/factorio-stuffs/last-game.txt,target=/app/factorio/last-game.txt \
> 6davids/docker-factorio
abdac7023091
david@focus docker-factorio % # We're ready to go
```

## Custom Settings

Settings can be managed the same way that saved games are. Mount files in the default locations to populate the server configs.

## To-Do
- Commands to start, stop, and restart the server
- Load and backup savefiles from s3?
- Small REST API to control the server
- RCON support?
- Create settings examples
- Kubernetes boilerplate configs
- Github action to build and push automatically with new factorio updates
