Palworld dedicated server helper

Helper utilities for managing a Palworld dedicated server in python. Send rcon commands, backup server, etc.

• underlying rcon implementation should work fine on any OS if you want to use it directly.
• PalworldUtil has been tested and works on Windows (11) and linux (ubuntu 22.04) following Windows - (steamcmd) / Linux - (steamcmd) guides
• • Some paths and executables are assumed but can be set by the user.

Setup

• Install python: https://www.python.org/downloads/
• • Make sure to check the box Add Python to PATH when installing so you can call python from your terminal.
• Install required python libraries: pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

• See ./src/palworld_rcon/source_rcon.py for direct rcon usage.
• • You can call rcon commands via library import or via cli:
• • • Looks for environment variables: palworld_server_ip, palworld_rcon_port, palworld_rcon_password, otherwise they are required cli args.
