[Python] I want to manage 7DaysToDie from Discord! 1/3 (Environment construction) [Python] I want to manage 7DaysToDie from Discord! 2/3 (Creating a BOT that can be managed from Discord) [Python] I want to manage 7DaysToDie from Discord! 3/3 (operation check)

About the background

I used to want to write a program that can manage Minecraft from Discord, This time I decided to do 7 Days on Steam, so I made it as if I could do it on 7 Days.

Originally it was troublesome, and opening the console screen and managing it was also troublesome. There are times when you want to leave the operation to a sub-tube other than yourself. I came to the production for some reason.

About this program

This program uses Discord Bot and Discord Webhook. Also, I'm still learning Python ~~ with the idea of having fun ~~. If you have any other opinions such as better program writing or blog improvement points, please comment and it will be encouraging.

Prerequisites

--Basic Unix knowledge and command can be used. --Have a basic knowledge of Python. (I'm going to write it so that it works almost with copy and paste without it) -Discord must be installed --Discord's API must be available. (Must have Bot installed)

Operating environment

--Use Python3.6.9 (works for 3 series)

CentOS Linux release 7.8.2003 (Core)

Edit startserver.sh for 7DaysToDie

$ cd sdtd
$ vim startserver.sh

`startserver.sh`


#!/bin/sh
SERVERDIR=`dirname "$0"`
cd "$SERVERDIR"

PARAMS=$@

CONFIGFILE=
while test $# -gt 0
do
    if [ `echo $1 | cut -c 1-12` = "-configfile=" ]; then
        CONFIGFILE=`echo $1 | cut -c 13-`
    fi
    shift
done

if [ "$CONFIGFILE" = "" ]; then
    PARAMS="-configfile=serverconfig.xml"
else
    if [ -f "$CONFIGFILE" ]; then
        echo Using config file: $CONFIGFILE
    else
        echo "Specified config file $CONFIGFILE does not exist."
        exit 1
    fi
fi

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.
#export MALLOC_CHECK_=0

if [ "$(uname -m)" = "x86_64" ]; then
    ./7DaysToDieServer.x86_64 -logfile $SERVERDIR/7DaysToDieServer_Data/logs/output_log__`date +%Y-%m-%d__%H-%M-%S`.txt -quit -batchmode -nographics -dedicated $PARAMS
else
    echo "7 Days to Die only supports 64 bit operating systems!"
    exit 1
fi

Edit serverconfig.xml

vim serverconfig.xml

Since Telnet is used for console operation, description is required. (Because it is localhost, it is OK without a path) The port should be 8081. There is no need to open the port.

`serverconfig.xml`


    <property name="TelnetEnabled"                  value="true"/>              <!-- Enable/Disable the telnet -->
    <property name="TelnetPort"                     value="8081"/>              <!-- Port of the telnet server -->
    <property name="TelnetPassword"                 value=""/>                  <!-- Password to gain entry to telnet interface. If no password is set the server will only listen on the local loopback interface -->

That is all for building the environment. Next, let's do Main Implementation!
