# Pterodactyl Module
|
||||
|
||||
This module is a parent module for deploying the [Pterodactyl](https://pterodactyl.io/) game server management system, which consists of multiple components:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Panel** - The web-based administration interface and API server
|
||||
2. **Wings** - The game server agent that controls individual game servers
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
The Pterodactyl module consists of two submodules:
|
||||
|
||||
- `panel` - Deploys the Pterodactyl control panel with its database and cache servers
|
||||
- `wings` - Deploys the Pterodactyl Wings agent for running game servers
|
||||
|
||||
For a complete installation, both components should be deployed.
|
||||
|
||||
## Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
Pterodactyl is designed with a client-server architecture:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Panel (Server)**: The central management interface where administrators create servers, manage users, and configure settings.
|
||||
- **Wings (Agent)**: Installed on each machine that will run game servers, communicates with the Panel via API.
|
||||
|
||||
In a homelab environment, you might deploy both components on the same machine or separate them for better resource allocation.
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
### Deploying Both Components
|
||||
|
||||
```hcl
|
||||
module "pterodactyl_panel" {
|
||||
source = "./modules/20-services-apps/pterodactyl/panel"
|
||||
volume_path = "${var.volume_host}/pterodactyl/panel"
|
||||
networks = [module.services.homelab_docker_network_name]
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
module "pterodactyl_wings" {
|
||||
source = "./modules/20-services-apps/pterodactyl/wings"
|
||||
volume_path = "${var.volume_host}/pterodactyl/wings"
|
||||
networks = [module.services.homelab_docker_network_name]
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
# Include both service definitions in your networking modules
|
||||
module "services" {
|
||||
source = "./modules/services"
|
||||
# ...
|
||||
service_definitions = [
|
||||
module.pterodactyl_panel.service_definition,
|
||||
module.pterodactyl_wings.service_definition,
|
||||
# Other service definitions
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Configuration Requirements
|
||||
|
||||
### Panel Setup
|
||||
|
||||
1. Create a `.env` file in the panel module directory with required variables:
|
||||
- Database credentials (`MYSQL_PASSWORD`, `MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD`, etc.)
|
||||
- App settings (`APP_URL`, `APP_TIMEZONE`, etc.)
|
||||
- CORS and proxy settings
|
||||
|
||||
2. SMTP settings are sourced from the global SMTP module
|
||||
|
||||
### Wings Setup
|
||||
|
||||
1. After deploying the Panel, you need to:
|
||||
- Create a node in the Panel UI
|
||||
- Download the wings configuration from the Panel
|
||||
- Place it at `${volume_path}/etc/config.yml` for the Wings module
|
||||
|
||||
## Network Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
Both components create their own dedicated Docker networks:
|
||||
|
||||
- `ptero-panel`: For communication between Panel, database, and cache
|
||||
- `ptero-wings`: For communication between Wings and game servers
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally, both components need to be connected to your main homelab network to communicate with each other.
|
||||
|
||||
## Service Definitions
|
||||
|
||||
Both components generate service definitions that can be used by your networking modules:
|
||||
|
||||
- Panel: Published on the domain `gameservers.yourdomain.com`
|
||||
- Wings: Published on the domain `wings.yourdomain.com`
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Considerations
|
||||
|
||||
- Wings requires `privileged` mode to create game server containers
|
||||
- Panel communicates with Wings via API using a token configured in the wings config.yml
|
||||
|
||||
