[Installer] $ENV support, formatting, and optimizations (#1340)
* [Installer] $ENV support

Add support for passing in installation variables instead of install_variables.txt.

In particular:
- EQEMU_SERVER_SKIP_UPDATE
- EQEMU_SERVER_SKIP_MAPS_UPDATE
Both work the same as files with the same name.

- MYSQL_DATABASE
- MYSQL_USER
- MYSQL_PASSWORD
All get read into the same $installation_variables collection, and are still overridden by any values found in installation_variables.txt

- MYSQL_HOST
Added to the list of $installation_variables, supported in installation_variables.txt, and overrides the default host for where the database lives (allowing it to be a separate container)

- MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD
If set, will use "root" as the user for DROP/CREATE DATABASE calls, to prevent requiring the "eq" user requiring more permission than is given by default with the MySql/MariaDB containers.

* [Installer] new_server_with_bots

Enabling bots requires both updated binaries and some database scripts.  Fetching source and compiling the code is the longest part of setting up a new server.  If you know you want bots, rather than having to do it twice, we can just accept an option to do it all at the same time.

* [Installer] Git/Source/Build optimizations

Source code is the same for bot/non-bot, so switch to a common directory for source and separate directories for build.

If the source directory already exists with a .git subfolder, rather than attempt to re-clone, instead do a git pull to still get the latest code.  Helps when using a shared volume but rebuilding containers.

* [Installer] Formatting / Cleanup

Fixed some indentation, added an existing option to the utility script output, removed some excess newlines, and moved a debug output to help identifying errors.

EQEmulator is a custom completely from-scratch open source server implementation for EverQuest built mostly on C++

  • MySQL/MariaDB is used as the database engine (over 200+ tables)
  • Perl and LUA are both supported scripting languages for NPC/Player/Quest oriented events
  • Open source database (Project EQ) has content up to expansion OoW (included in server installs)
  • Game server environments and databases can be heavily customized to create all new experiences
  • Hundreds of Quests/events created and maintained by Project EQ

  • Install Guide

  • You can use curl or wget to kick off the installer (whichever your OS has)

curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/EQEmu/Server/master/utils/scripts/linux_installer/install.sh install.sh && chmod 755 install.sh && ./install.sh

wget --no-check-certificate https://raw.githubusercontent.com/EQEmu/Server/master/utils/scripts/linux_installer/install.sh -O install.sh && chmod 755 install.sh && ./install.sh

Bug Reports

  • Please use the issue tracker provided by GitHub to send us bug reports or feature requests.
  • The EQEmu Forums are also a place to submit and get help with bugs.

Contributions

  • The preferred way to contribute is to fork the repo and submit a pull request on GitHub. If you need help with your changes, you can always post on the forums or try Discord. You can also post unified diffs (git diff should do the trick) on the Server Code Submissions forum, although pull requests will be much quicker and easier on all parties.
