⁠First Run

Edit the docker-compose.yml file changing GAMESERVER= to the game server of choice. On first run linuxgsm will install your selected server and will start running. Once completed the game server details will be output.

⁠Game Server Ports

Each game server has its own port requirements. Becuase of this you will need to configure the correct ports in your docker-compose after first run. The required ports are output once installation is completed and everytime the docker container is started.

⁠Volumes

volumes are required to save persistant data for your game server. The example above covers a basic csgoserver however some game servers save files in other places. Please check all the correct locations are mounted to remove the risk of loosing save data.

⁠Run LinuxGSM commands

Commands can be run just like standard LinuxGSM using the docker exec command.

docker exec -it csgoserver ./csgoserver details
