SquadMS-RCON-Worker

The SquadMS RCON Worker, meant to be deployed seperately and to communicate with SquadMS using a small API. Does solve the multiple RCON connections issue efficiently if used correctly. Currently RCON only.

Requirements

• Node.js
• NPM

If you are on a debian derivate, you can install the latest version of Node.js and NPM using the following command:

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y && sudo apt install nodejs npm && sudo npm i -g n && sudo n latest

Installation

The worker can be installed as standalone or as an dependency to your existing project.

Standalone

This will install only the rcon worker, assuming you are already running your API-Backend somewhere else.

Installation

To install it as standalone, simply clone/download the repository, open the folder in a command line and run the following command:

npm i

Running

To start it, simply run the follwing command:

npm run start

Dependency

This will add the rcon-worker to your project as an dependency. That way it will always be shipped & updated with yout main project (assuming it has a package.json).

Installation

To install it as an dependency of your project, simply run the following command to add it to your package.json:

npm i @squadms/rcon-worker

Running

To start it, simply run the follwing command:

npm explore @squadms/rcon-worker -- npm run start -- --env=/path/to/.env

Todo's

• Clean up Log output and omit unecessary information
• Correctly integrate SquadJS as an dependency to improve maintainability
• Test server change endpoint
• Add HTTPS support to run secure without an reverse proxy
• Add auth token support to APIServer
