Docker

SoulFire + Docker = ❤️ Official Docker images are available on Docker Hub . Those contain the SoulFire Dedicated Server. This guide assumes you know Docker and Docker compose well and are able to troubleshoot issues on your own.

Pterodactyl/Pelican panel egg

You want to use Docker without the hassle of setting up the container yourself? If you are a user of Pterodactyl/Pelican, you can use the official egg .

How to install Docker?

Look at this official guide .

Basic setup

Just setup SoulFire with no extra configuration or other services.

docker-compose.yml


services:
  app:
    image: alexprogrammerde/soulfire
    restart: always
    healthcheck:
      test: ["CMD", "curl", "-f", "http://localhost:38765/health"]
      interval: 30s
      timeout: 10s
      retries: 5
    ports:
      - '38765:38765'
    volumes:
      - app_data:/soulfire/data
 
volumes:
  app_data:
    driver: local

HTTPS setup

SoulFire runs on HTTP, but if you run a web endpoint you’re going to need HTTPS for client-side requests from websites. You have two options, set up a reverse proxy with automatic HTTPS or use cloudflared as a https tunnel.

Reverse proxy

You will have to change the placeholders for the domain and email.
