Help Needed Hosting Bot(s) On Ubuntu Server

update the run script,remove the '-all' from the jar name

HSThompsn

@LaFayette - I removed the '-all' from the jar name and it ran the script successfully.

However, it looks like its getting errors connecting to the lobby and I don't see it when I log into the Online Lobby listed as a bot. Does the bot need to be operating using a registered username in order to connect to the lobby?

@HSThompsn in the run_bot script, change lobby.triplea-game.org to prod2-lobby.triplea-game.org

LaFayette

Likely that is going to be the last thing needed, most other validation generally happens before connecting to lobby.

I recommend to stay with 2.5 for bots until there is a version update in lobby, but FWIW future versions will have this corrected: https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/pull/8699

HSThompsn

@LaFayette just a preface to thank you again for the help and all day patience on this. I'll make sure to stick with this version until version update.

I've changed the lobby address and now seem to get a new error. Output below:

The lobby URI needs to be fully qualified. Change: prod2-lobby.triplea-game.org to https://prod2-lobby.triplea-game.org

HSThompsn

@LaFayette SUCCESS! The script boots, connects, lists as a bot in lobby, and can accept direct URL connections as well. Thanks again for all the help today, I'll get some bots up in the lobby ASAP for public use.

HSThompsn

@LaFayette One last question. Is it possible to have the bot not need to connect to the public lobby, if its going to be a private password protected bot?

My plan is to run (1) private bot in terminal (A) and (2) public bots in terminals (B,C) all on separate ports.

With the help you provided above, I'll have no issue getting those (2) public bots up and running in the lobby. As for the private bot, I was attempting to implement a suggestion from this post: ssollof private bot tip. By removing the url completely, it locks on the script executing- which was our experience we just hacked through above.

Is it possible not to have it have to connect to a lobby? That way it would only be accessible through "Connect to network game" using the URL.

LaFayette

I think you'd have to launch a lobby instance to have a truly private bot instance. It's not currently possible to run without a lobby connection.

FWIW, here is a script to download maps:

change the cd /home/bot/maps to be your maps folder
change the 'sudo -u bot' to be your bot system user or remove entirely if you run the bot instance as yourself (likely just remove the 'sudo -u bot' prefixes on the various commands)

#!/bin/bash

## note:
##  -  it appears that it takes some time for a repo to show up in an orgs repo list
##  -  the curl call below is rate limited, not intended for repeated invocations

# Usage:
# - Simply execute this script without any arguments

update_maps="${1:-false}"

sudo -u "bot" mkdir -p "/home/bot/maps"
cd "/home/bot/maps"
for j in 1 2; do
  while read mapRepo; do
    downloadFile="$(echo $mapRepo | sed 's|.*/||')-master.zip"
    if [ "$update_maps" == "true" ] || [ ! -e "$downloadFile" ]; then
      sudo -u "bot" wget -O "$downloadFile" "https://github.com/$mapRepo/archive/master.zip"
    fi
  done < <(curl --silent "https://api.github.com/orgs/triplea-maps/repos?page=$j&per_page=1000" \
          | grep full_name | sed 's/.*: "//' | sed 's/",$//')
done

HSThompsn

@LaFayette Thanks for the auto-download script. All three bots are up an running in the lobby.

I saw the lobby server on GitHub and gave it a look. Didn't see a prebaked .sh file in there to launch, so figured its gotta be a pretty complex setup. If there's any documentation on the lobby server, I'd love to take a look.
