Dockerfile for building a docker image able to run the UrbanTerror game server

UrbanTerror server

A docker image running the UrbanTerror game server.

Usage

• Create a /my_server/q3ut4 directory on your docker host machine.

• Copy your UrT server.cfg config file in /my_server/q3ut4.

• run the docker container:

    docker run -d --net host -v /my_server/q3ut4:/q3ut4 tomdesinto/urbanterror:4.3.4
  

If you want to install additional maps

Note that for tags 4.2.x, the installation directory is /home/urt/UrbanTerror42/ while it is /home/urt/UrbanTerror43/ for tags 4.3.x.

There are 2 options

Option 1:

When the docker container is booting, it will COPY the maps into the appropriate directory so the server can read it. This is the slower option, but will work always.

• Create a folder /my_server/maps on your docker host machine.

• Copy the pk3 map files in it.

• Run the docker container:

    docker run -d --net host -v /my_server/q3ut4:/q3ut4 -v /my_server/maps:/maps tomdesinto/urbanterror:4.3.3
  

Option 2:

This works on 4.2.023, I don't know about older versions. This mounts your maps folder directly into a subfolder of the q3ut4 folder. The URT documentation says this shouldn't work, but one of the recent UT versions enabled it.

First, create the folder /my_server/maps on your docker host machine. Then:

• Copy the pk3 map files in it.
• Run the docker container:

docker run -d --net host -v /my_server/q3ut4:/q3ut4 -v /my_server/maps:/home/urt/UrbanTerror43/q3ut4/download tomdesinto/urbanterror:4.3.4

Whats the difference between Option 1 and 2?

Options 1 uses -v /my_server/maps:/maps and a script copies from /maps directly into the /home/urt/UrbanTerror43/q3ut4 folder. Option 2 uses -v /my_server/maps:/home/urt/UrbanTerror43/q3ut4/download which mounts the maps directly into the q3ut4/download folder... no copying takes place.

Option 1 is slower, but should work in future versions of UT. Option 2 is faster, but it is not verified to work in older UT versions (older than 4.3).

If you want to run the server on a different port

The URT_PORT environment variable can be set to run the Urban Terror server on a port of your choice.

To run the server on port 27000:

docker run -d --net host -v /my_server/q3ut4:/q3ut4 -e URT_PORT=27000 tomdesinto/urbanterror:4.3.4

SSH Connection

You can connect with SSH or SFTP to the docker container with user root on port 22 and using this INSECURE private key PuTTY format and starting your container as follows:

docker run -d --net host -v /my_server/q3ut4:/q3ut4 -v /my_server/maps:/maps tomdesinto/urbanterror:4.3.4 /sbin/my_init --enable-insecure-key

DO NOT expose port 22 on the Internet or anyone with that key will be able to connect as root to your container!

Build the docker image

This image is based on tomdesinto/urbanterror-data which contains just the Urban Terror files (~2GB be patient).

git clone https://github.com/thomasleveil/docker-UrbanTerror.git
cd docker-UrbanTerror
sudo docker build -t tomdesinto/urbanterror:4.3.4 .

docker-urbanterror's Issues

Update to 4.3.1?

Are you planning on updating to 4.3.1?

Urbanterror 4.3.4

Hello,

I am using your dockerfile for the server and it is working perfectly fine 👍.
But 2 month ago the version 4.3.4 of urban terror was released. Could you update the server ?

Many thanks in advance ;-)
