This documentation page is a work in progress.
Overview
This guide will walk you through self-hosting Open Game Backend on a virtual machine.
This is going to run everything on a single vm, suitable for hobby deployments.
Prerequisites
This guide works with most Linux distributions, but is not tested. Reach out on Discord if you have questions.

TODO: demonstrate using git clone of their own repo
Configure firewall
Open port 80
Write Dockerfile
TODO: not using opengb dev for prod
# TODO: Need dockerfile for opengb
- from debian
- install opengb (pin version)
- opengb build
- set cmd to `deno run .opengb/entrypoint.ts`
Write Docker Compose
TODO: quickly explain how this works
docker-compose.yaml
# TODO: Not tested
