Docker setup
In this guide, we'll assume you're running Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. Because we won't be covering many distros, the guide will only use the most popular one.
- 1.Open your terminal
- 2.Do a
sudo apt update - 3.Then we must install the following prerequisites:
sudo apt install -y apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl software-properties-common - 4.Then we need to add the GPG key from the official Docker repository to our system:
curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg - 5.Then we will add the Docker repository to our APT sources:
echo "deb [arch=$(dpkg --print-architecture) signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list > /dev/null - 6.Do another
sudo apt updateto let the system update the packages, now including the Docker repository. - 7.Let's install Docker and docker-compose:
sudo apt-get install -y docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io docker-compose-plugin - 8.After that's done, let's add the current user to the docker group, so we don't need to write
sudoall the time while using docker:sudo usermod -aG docker ${USER} - 9.You will need to re-log your user, for this to take effect (open and close your terminal, if you're using a headless Ubuntu server)
I like to put my stuff in
/opt/ so that's what we will do for now- 1.Let's create the folders needed. We will need sudo privilige to create folders in
/opt/.sudo mkdir -p /opt/docker/skyrimserver/{config,Data,logs} - 2.Now let us take ownership of the folders
sudo chown -R ${USER}:${USER} /opt/docker
- 1.Docker is extremely simple to get up and running
- 2.We just need to run this command, and Docker will take care of the rest:
docker run -d -it --name skyrimserver -p 10578:10578/udp -v /opt/docker/skyrimserver/config:/home/server/config -v /opt/docker/skyrimserver/Data:/home/server/Data -v /opt/docker/skyrimserver/logs:/home/server/logs tiltedphoques/st-reborn-server:latest - 3.Docker will now download the latest server image, and run it afterwards.
- 4.If you want to see the logs in your terminal, you can use this command:
docker logs -tf "skyrimserver" - 5.If you would like to attach to your server console to enter commands (such as
/help), you can use this command:docker attach skyrimserver- Note: to detach from the console, the default hotkey is
CTRL+P,Q. This means you hold Left-Control, then you press and release P, and then press and release Q.
- 6.Now your server is up and running.
- 1.To stop your
skyrimserver, simply run the following command in your console and it will stop your Skyrim Together Reborn server:docker stop skyrimserver -t 1
- 2.To start it again, simply run the following command in your console and it will start your Skyrim Together Reborn server again:
docker start skyrimserver
- 3.To restart the server, run the following command in your console and it will stop *and* start the server:
docker restart skyrimserver -t 1
version: "3"
services:
skyrimserver:
container_name: skyrimserver
image: tiltedphoques/st-reborn-server:latest
ports:
- "10578:10578/udp"
volumes:
- /opt/docker/skyrimserver/config:/home/server/config
- /opt/docker/skyrimserver/logs:/home/server/logs
- /opt/docker/skyrimserver/Data:/home/server/Data
- /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
- /etc/timezone:/etc/timezone:ro
