Luanti server list
====================
Setting up the webpage
----------------------
You will have to install node.js, doT.js and their dependencies to compile
the server list webpage template.
First install node.js, e.g.:
# apt-get install nodejs
# # OR:
# pacman -S nodejs
Then install doT.js and its dependencies:
$ npm install dot 'commander@11.1.0' mkdirp
And finally compile the template:
$ cd static
$ ../node_modules/dot/bin/dot-packer -s .
You can now serve the webpage by copying the files in static/ to your web root, or by [starting the server list](#setting-up-the-server).
Embedding the server list in a page

Setting up the server
---------------------
1. Install Python 3 and pip:
pacman -S python python-pip
# OR:
apt-get install python3 python3-pip
2. Install required Python packages:
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
3. If using in production, install uwsgi and its python plugin:
pacman -S uwsgi uwsgi-plugin-python
# OR:
apt-get install uwsgi uwsgi-plugin-python3
4. Configure the server by adding options to `config.py`.
See `config-example.py` for defaults.
5. Start the server:
$ ./server.py
$ # Or for production:
$ uwsgi -s /run/serverlist.sock --plugin python -w server:app --enable-threads
$ # Then configure according to http://flask.pocoo.org/docs/deploying/uwsgi/
7. (optional) Configure the proxy server, if any. You should make the server
load static files directly from the static directory. Also, `/list`
should be served from `list.json`. Example for nginx:
root /path/to/server/static;
rewrite ^/$ /index.html break;
rewrite ^/list$ /list.json break;
try_files $uri @uwsgi;
location @uwsgi {
include uwsgi_params;
uwsgi_pass unix:/run/serverlist.sock;
}
Setting up the server (Apache version)
--------------------------------------
If you wish to use Apache to host the server list, do steps 1-2, 4, above. Additionally install/enable mod_wsgi and an Apache site config like the following:
# This config assumes you have the server list at DocumentRoot.
# Visitors to the server list in this config would visit http://local.server/ and
# apache would serve up the output from server.py.
# Where are the serverlist files located?
DocumentRoot /var/games/luanti/serverlist
# Serve up server.py at the root of the URL.
WSGIScriptAlias / /var/games/luanti/serverlist/server.py
# The name of the function that we call when we invoke server.py
WSGICallableObject app
# These options are necessary to enable Daemon mode. Without this, you'll have strange behavior
# with servers dropping off your list! You can tweak threads as needed. See mod_wsgi documentation.
