ofsm_pre_dl

modified open factorio server manager which provides an option of using pre-download headless server tar.xz

why this?

headless server downloading could be rather slow in China. and ofsm download it every time you start the container.

crawler.sh

crawling from factorio.com for latest healess server tar, and download it to ./download dir. run this every 3 hours by cron:

crontab -e

# input
0 */3 * * * /root/factorio-server/ofsm_pre_dl/crawler.sh >> /root/factorio-server/ofsm_pre_dl/cw.log 2>&1
# or you can rsync from other hosts.

build and run the ofsm_pre_dl

# install axel and docker engine
apt install axel -y

# download healess server (for the first time), you should config cron later
sh /opt/crawler.sh

# build
sh build.sh

# run the ofsm
sh run_with_pre_dl.sh

# docker logs ofsm_pre_dl, you should see ..
PRE_DOWNLOAD_DIR=/opt/pre_download given. won't download, woooo!
