RconCli is a command-line interface tool for managing game servers remotely. It allows server administrators to execute commands, manage players and configure server settings. In this tutorial, we will go through the steps to install RconCli on Void Linux.
Before you can install RconCli on Void Linux, you need to ensure that you have the following:
Follow these steps to install RconCli on Void Linux:
Open the terminal by pressing Ctrl+Alt+T or by searching for it in the menu.
Update the system by running the following command:
sudo xbps-install -Syu
This will ensure that your system has the latest updates installed.
Install the Rust programming language by running the following command:
sudo xbps-install rust
RconCli is written in Rust, so you need to have the Rust compiler installed.
Clone the RconCli repository by running the following command:
git clone https://github.com/gorcon/rcon-cli.git
This will download the RconCli source code to your current directory.
Navigate to the rcon-cli directory by running the following command:
cd rcon-cli
Build RconCli by running the following command:
cargo build --release
This will compile the RconCli code and create a binary executable file called rcon-cli.
Copy the rcon-cli binary to a directory in your $PATH, such as /usr/local/bin, by running the following command:
sudo cp target/release/rcon-cli /usr/local/bin/
This will make the rcon-cli command available in your terminal no matter which directory you're in.
Verify that RconCli is installed correctly by running the following command:
rcon-cli --version
You should see the version number of RconCli printed in the terminal.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed RconCli on Void Linux! You can now use it to manage your game servers remotely.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
