Start a csgo dedicated server on a GandiCloud vps (openstack) server.

This project is based on gandicloud vps https://docs.gandi.net/fr/vps/vps_api/index.html. It manage the server using openstack api. Internally it uses linuxgsm to install and manage the csgo server.

(Other alternatives to linuxgsm looks very good to like docker based csgo-sever-launcher. More details on valve's wiki)

⚠️ Running the bin/create-gandi-vm.sh script will use your Gandi account and use your prepaid account to pay the server.

[pre-requisite] install openstackclient cf. https://docs.gandi.net/fr/vps/vps_api/index.html [pre-requisite] create a .env file based on .env.example

Run the following commands:

source bin/read-config.sh
bin/create-gandi-vm.sh
bin/install-server.sh

Those scripts are still pretty raw (and I'm a frontend developper) it's obviously needs improvements.

After reading the config, you'll be able to execute common openstack commands e.g. openstack server list

openstack server start CSGO-server
openstack server stop CSGO-server

Connect:

ssh root@${IP}

When connected:

./start.sh

• post-install script: copy csgo-server configuration
• better configuration
• web based app to manage the whole server
• better csgo server configuration: gamemode, switch to short match, motd, rcon …
