# Stardew Valley Multiplayer Docker Compose

This project aims to autostart a Stardew Valley Multiplayer Server as easy as possible.

## Setup

### Docker-Compose
 
```
git clone https://github.com/printfuck/stardew-multiplayer-docker

docker-compose up
```
### Ansible

Create an inventory file with your hosts

```
ansible -i <your_inventori> playbook.yml
```

### Terraform (with Hetzner Cloud)

Enter your API Token in `terraform/vars.auto.tfvars` and run the following script:

```
./terra.sh
```

## Game Setup

Intially you have to create or load a game once after first startup. After that the Autoload Mod jump starts into the previously loaded savegame everytime you rerun the container. You can also edit the config file of the Autoload Mod to archieve similar behaviour.

## How it works

The game, the modloader (SMAPI), and the "Always On" Mod is pulled from my servers to minimize version conflicts. Afterwards everything will be unpacked into the right places. In the end of the init script the game will be started inside Xvfb.

## Why Docker

This should be simple and easily deployable, so there are only a few options.
