Uberserver

uberserver is a lobbyserver written in python for spring lobby clients.

its currently used as the main lobby server running at lobby.springrts.com port 8200.

see https://github.com/spring/uberserver for more details

uberserver currently doesn't work on windows/osx, any help is welcome! see https://github.com/spring/uberserver/issues/70

set spring version

with springlobby type this as admin user into the server window:

 SETLATESTSPRINGVERSION 100.0

to make it persistent, edit /home/lobby/uberserver/args.txt:

 --latestspringversion 100.0

Offline LAN server

This is not really the official way but I started an offline LAN server on my Lubuntu 15.04 doing this:

First, download the latest uberserver:

wget https://github.com/spring/uberserver/archive/master.zip
unzip master.zip
cd uberserver-master

If you will be offline, the public IP check crashes the server. This should disable it:

sed -i "s#urlopen('http://springrts.com/lobby/getip.php').read()#'8.8.8.8'#" DataHandler.py

If you want to skip user registration and accepting the Terms of Use (it's your server after all), these ugly hacks should help:

You can check https://github.com/spring/uberserver/issues/16 first to see if it's officially supported by now.

sed -i "s#allowed = False#allowed = True#" protocol/Protocol.py
sed -Ei "s#(def in_LOGIN.*)#\1\n\t\tself.userdb.legacy_register_user(username, password, client.ip_address, client.country_code)#" protocol/Protocol.py
sed -i "s#(client.access == 'agreement'#(client.access == 'agreement_disabled'#" protocol/Protocol.py

Then install the required Python modules (geo IP stuff is not needed when on a LAN and/or offline) and start the server:

sudo apt-get install python-sqlalchemy python-pycryptopp python-twisted
./server.py

After that you can just launch a lobby client, connect to localhost (or the IP address of the server) with any username and password (empty might not work; didn't test) and you should be able to play.

You can see the expected output here (except that the packages were already installed): http://pastebin.com/ZTZzL1M9
The line "[0] Successfully logged in static user <ChanServ>" takes a few seconds while the server initializes its database. The two last lines should appear when your lobby client connects.
