Usage

Docker

docker run -d --name enshrouded \
  --hostname enshrouded \
  --restart=unless-stopped \
  -p 15636-15637:15636-15637/udp \
  -v ./game:/opt/enshrouded \
  -e SERVER_NAME="Enshrouded Server" \
  -e SERVER_PASSWORD="secret" \
  -e UPDATE_CRON="*/30 * * * *" \
  -e PUID=4711 \
  -e PGID=4711 \
  mornedhels/enshrouded-server:latest

Docker Compose

version: "3"
services:
  enshrouded:
    image: mornedhels/enshrouded-server:latest
    container_name: enshrouded
    hostname: enshrouded
    restart: unless-stopped
    stop_grace_period: 90s
    ports:
      - "15636-15637:15636-15637/udp"
    volumes:
      - ./game:/opt/enshrouded
    environment:
      - SERVER_NAME=Enshrouded Server
      - SERVER_PASSWORD=secret
      - UPDATE_CRON=*/30 * * * *
      - PUID=4711
      - PGID=4711

Note: The volumes are created next to the docker-compose.yml file. If you want to create the volumes, in the default location (eg. /var/lib/docker) you can use the following compose file:

services:
  enshrouded:
    image: mornedhels/enshrouded-server:latest
    container_name: enshrouded
    hostname: enshrouded
    restart: unless-stopped
    stop_grace_period: 90s
    ports:
      - "15636-15637:15636-15637/udp"
    volumes:
      - game:/opt/enshrouded
    environment:
      - SERVER_NAME=Enshrouded Server
      - SERVER_PASSWORD=secret
      - UPDATE_CRON=*/30 * * * *
      - PUID=4711
      - PGID=4711

  game:

Backup

The image includes a backup script that creates a zip file of the last saved game state. To enable backups, set the BACKUP_CRON environment variable. To limit the number of backups, set the BACKUP_MAX_COUNT environment variable.

To restore a backup, stop the server and simply extract the zip file to the savegame folder and start the server up again. If you want to keep the current savegame, make sure to make a backup before deleting or overwriting the files.

Warning

Verify the permissions of the extracted files. The files should be owned by the user with the UID and GID set in the environment variables. If the image is running in privileged mode, the files will be automatically chowned to the given UID and GID.

Commands

• Force Update:

  docker compose exec enshrouded supervisorctl start enshrouded-force-update

Known Issues

• The server doesn't start (not logging 'HostOnline' (up)!) or the update fails with following error:

  Error! App '2278520' state is 0x202 after update job.
  

  This means there is probably something wrong with your file permissions. Make sure the UID and GID are correct and the files are owned by the correct user.
