fivem_linux_manager

Description

Manage your Fivem Linux server

Includes server script for sending in game message notifications 15 minutes, 10 minutes, 5 minutes, and 30 seconds before restart - default is set for restarts twice a day at 6am and 6pm.

Setup

• Install into resources directory

• Add the following line to your mods list in server.cfg

ensure fivem_linux_manager

• Move the manager.sh file to your roots /bin/ directory and run the following from your terminal to be able to run commands from the terminal:

$ sudo chmod +x /bin/manager.sh

Configuration

• To setup automatic restarts you'll need to edit your systems CRON jobs
• crontab is the simplest to use as it comes standard on most linux distributions. You can edit it using your servers default editor with:

$ crontab -e

• Once in editing mode, add the below to it (this will set auto restart for 6am and 6pm relative to your servers time)

0 6 * * * manage.sh restart
0 18 * * * manage.sh restart

Important Notes

• Make sure your FiveM path in your root directory matches what's in manager.sh at FIVEM_PATH=/FiveM.
• The stop and restart methods will clear your servers cache found at resources/cache, if you don't want to clear your cache you can remove the following lines from the manage.sh file for both methods:

rm -R $FIVEM_PATH/server-data/cache/
echo -e "$GREEN Clearing the cache $NORMAL"

Usage

• Once configured you can run start, stop, restart, status, screen from your servers terminal whenever you like
