Configuration - XAseco

I've taken the freedom to ease the MySQL configuration a bit.
Other plugins still need to be configured fully.
Acquire the necessary files and follow the guide to custom configurations below.

Mandatory

  - MASTERADMIN_LOGIN           | Login name of the player to assume MasterAdmin role for XAseco

MySQL

  - MYSQL_HOST                  | Host of MySQL database -> Default : db
  - MYSQL_LOGIN                 | Username of MySQL database -> Default : trackmania
  - MYSQL_PASSWORD (Mandatory)  | Password of MySQL user
  - MYSQL_DATABASE              | Name of MySQL database -> Default : trackmania 

Customization

Apart from the configuration possibilities, I've included some scripts to add custom tracks, tracklist, configuration files, plugins and a blacklist to disable unwanted default plugins.

Custom Tracks

While the Nadeo tracks are available in this repository and accessible under GameData/Tracks/Challenges/Nadeo/, adding custom tracks from e.g. Trackmania Exchange is as simple as placing the files in the tracks/ folder and mounting it to /var/lib/tmserver/GameData/Tracks/Custom/.

[...]
  tmserver:
    image: fanyx/tmserver
    [...]
    volumes:
     - ./tracks:/var/lib/tmserver/GameData/Tracks/Custom
[...]

Custom Playlist

You can add tracks to a playlist in a simple way.
Create a plaintext file like in the example below and mount it to /var/lib/tmserver/playlist.txt.

The tracks for the server are stored relative to /var/lib/tmserver/GameData/Tracks.
Creating your own playlist is as easy as specifying each track on a separate line in the playlist.txt by its relative path to the Tracks folder.

Example:

Folder structure:

|--> docker-compose.yml
|--> ./tracks
  |--> mini01.Challenge.Gbx
  `--> SpeedxZxZ.Challenge.Gbx
|--> ./db-data
`--> ./playlist.txt

playlist.txt :

Challenges/Nadeo/C01-Race.Challenge.Gbx
Custom/mini01.Challenge.Gbx
Custom/SpeedxZxZ.Challenge.Gbx

Custom configuration files

Most plugins need you to provide valid configuration files to function in the first place.
Place these in a folder e.g. config/ and mount it to /var/lib/xaseco/config/.
All files will be linked to XAseco's root folder.

Careful, this will overwrite exisiting default files and localdatabase.xml as well.

Custom plugins

Custom plugins work similar to configuration files.
Create a folder like plugins/ and mount it to /var/lib/xaseco/plugins/custom/.
They will be linked down to the plugins folder.

Plugin blacklist

Create a file called blacklist and list plugins by filename that you want ignored on XAseco's boot.
Mount this file at /var/lib/xaseco/blacklist.

blacklist:

jfreu.chat.php
jfreu.plugin.php

would disable jfreu's plugins but leave all others enabled.
