Converting MagicBox to a Server based Magicbane installation
MagicBox administrators might decide they wish to deploy Magicbane outside of the container configuration. While it works perfectly for solo development or as an instant game-server; bare metal deployments have some benefits for larger teams.
The MagicBox adminisrator is lucky as Magicbane runs just as well outside of the box.
This document assumes a fresh bare metal unbuntu machine.
Geting Magicbane out of the box
Log into your container and dump the database.
docker exec -it magicbox /bin/bash
./mbdump.sh
Find the container id of your MagicBox
docker ps
Copy Magicbane out of the container
docker cp CONTAINERID:/home/mbbox/magicbane /home/YOURDIRHERE/
Setup configuration
cd magicbane
mkdir mb.conf
cp mb.data/magicbane.conf mb.conf/
Install middleware
sudo apt-get update && apt-get -y install --no-install-recommends \
mysql-server sudo lsof git openssh-client locales locales-all && apt-get clean
Copy dependencies out of container
TODO
Make sure MySQL is running.
sudo service mysql start
Configure Magicbane database and user accounts. The formerly MagicBox and now Magicbane administrator should edit this file to assign his own database user and passwords. Make sure to edit magicbane/mb.conf/magicbane.conf accordingly.
`sudo mysql < mb.data/magicbanesql.conf`
Now restore the database
./mbrestore.sh
Bleep Blop
Your new Magicbane bare metal server should now boot!
./mbrestart.sh
Last steps
It is not advisable in a bare metal installation to use the read-only deploy key shipped wtih MagicBox. Everyone else with a MagicBox has the same key. Use your own!
