Changelog

All notable changes to GameKeepr. The format follows Keep a Changelog; versions follow semantic versioning. The latest image on ghcr.io moves only when a version is released; edge tracks the main branch between releases.

Unreleased

• Three more router vendors. Settings → Router now also offers Fritz!Box (TR-064), MikroTik (RouterOS 7 REST, certificate pinned on first contact) and generic UPnP for most consumer routers, next to UniFi. Written to the vendors' published APIs and awaiting real-hardware confirmation — the connect test is a real call, so problems surface at connect time. The public reachability probe now runs only when no router is connected; with one, the rules listing is the authoritative answer.
• Forwarding verified without a router. The Network tab now asks the game itself through the public address — an answer proves container port, forward and router in one go, with no router integration needed. When nothing answers and no router is connected, it says plainly which ports to forward manually (with the NAT-hairpin caveat spelled out).
• Licence change: AGPL-3.0-or-later. From the next release the core is AGPL: still genuinely open source and free to self-host; anyone offering GameKeepr as a service to others must publish their modifications. Versions up to 1.1.0 were MIT and remain MIT.
• Start commands Steam never wrote down. When an app's Steam info lists no Linux launch entry, the registry now fills in the known start script for recognised games (7 Days to Die, Project Zomboid), and for everything else the command may stay empty: the server finds its own conventional start script (startserver.sh and friends) on first boot — and refuses loudly instead of guessing when none exists.
• Tournaments are in development: teams, brackets, a public read-only tournament page at /t/<slug> (team names always, rosters only when the organizer says so), and a CS2 match server provisioned per match with MatchZy reporting the results back. The feature will ship behind a beta label until it has been tested and validated end to end.

1.1.0 — 2026-10-02

Added

• Joining, up front. Deploying a recognised game now asks for the join settings — password, world, server name — in their own section at the top of the deploy form, instead of leaving them buried among template variables.
• A Joining card on every server's overview: address, port, server name, world and the password, visible to everyone who may see the server. A fresh server's password used to be visible to nobody at all.
• Automatic port forwards. With a router connected, a deploy opens the game's ports by itself and says so in the deploy log. Administrative ports (RCON, web consoles) are never opened automatically — those keep the deliberate click on the Network tab.
• Rename from the card. Operators rename a server where they see it; the container, id and URLs stay put. Servers from config/servers.json are declined with directions to the file.
• Delete from the card. Owners can delete a portal-deployed server: the container is stopped and removed, the portal forgets it — and the game's data and backups deliberately stay on disk.
• A picture on every Steam server. Steam artwork now falls back through the store's capsule and header images, and a Steam deploy records which app id its art belongs to (the game's, not the dedicated-server tool's). The lettered tile is now a bug, not a fallback.
• Settings → Steam game server tokens: paste a Steam Web API key once and the portal mints and retires game server login tokens (GSLTs) itself — groundwork for tournaments.

1.0.0 — 2026-10-01

First public release, and the version submitted to Unraid Community Applications (listed in the catalog on 2026-10-02).

• Restarts verified against the game itself, with per-game startup times, a cooldown, and an activity feed.
• Three roles (owner, operator, member) with per-server exceptions; sessions, audit log, Discord notifications.
• Install game servers from Unraid Community Applications templates (reviewed before anything runs) or from ~580 dedicated servers on Steam, composed on Valve's official steamcmd image.
• Schedules that skip when players are online, world backups with safe restores, live logs with a console, typed per-game settings, file editor.
• Mod installs with hash verification, archive-safety checks and optional VirusTotal/ClamAV scanning; Steam Workshop declarations.
• Cloudflare Access guest list management, UniFi port forwarding, metrics, and a built-in wiki documenting all of it.
• Runs on any Docker host; hardened variant through docker-socket-proxy.
