vtracker

[dusnake]

Hi!

I would like to install this utility for your tool.

https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/vtracker-2-timetable-for-acc-servers.40161/

I have seen you use these commands to start:

if which node > /dev/null
then
npm i
node server.js
else
echo "Node is not installed. I try to install it myself :). This procedure will only be done once"
sudo apt update
sudo apt install npm
npm install -g n
sudo npm cache clean -f
sudo npm install -g n
sudo n stable
PATH="$PATH"
npm i
node server.js
fi

but it doesn't have npm installed, can you add it to docker to see how it works?

Hi,
this seems quite interesting. I'll have a look at it.
However, I wonder if it would be an option to put vtracker into another container and just share the accservermanager-data volume? What do you think?
(Edit: one could use https://hub.docker.com/_/node as base for that ...)

I'll try it when I get some time, thank you very much!

Hi,
so, I came up with this Dockerfile

# might try to use slim or alpine, but the node pkgs require python
FROM node:current

ENV VTRACKER_APP_PATH="./VT 2.2.1/Linux" \
    NODE_ENV=production

WORKDIR /home/node/app/

COPY ${VTRACKER_APP_PATH} /home/node/app
RUN chown -R node:node /home/node/app && \
    chmod 755 /home/node/app/

USER node
RUN npm install

EXPOSE 9000
CMD ["npm", "start"]

and this docker-compose.yml

version: "2"
services:
  acc:
    image: gotzl/accservermanager
    volumes:
      - /tmp/server:/server
      - accservermanager-data:/data
    environment:
      - ALLOWED_HOSTS=["*"]
      - SECRET_KEY=
    ports:
      - 9232:9232/tcp
      - 9231:9231/udp
      - 8000:8000
  vtracker:
    build: .
    volumes:
      - accservermanager-data:/data:ro
    ports:
      - 9000:9000
volumes:
    accservermanager-data:

Put these in a directory and extract the vtracker package to the same dir. Adjust the docker-compose.yml to your likings, then run docker-compose build and docker-compose up. This should give you the vtracker on port 9000. In vtracker, add a server with directory /data/instances/somename/results/, where somename is the name you chose for your server in accservermanager.

Feel free to play around with that and tell me what you think.
