# Clusterio
|
|
|
|
## Introduction
|
|
|
|
Clusterio (https://github.com/clusterio/clusterio) is a clustered Factorio server manager that provides the tooling for implementing cross server interactions in Factorio.
|
|
It was previously best known for implementing cross server transfer and cloud storage of items via teleporter chests.
|
|
But this functionality has been pulled out of Clusterio into its own plugin for Clusterio named [Subspace Storage](https://github.com/clusterio/subspace_storage).
|
|
|
|
By itself Clusterio doesn't change the gameplay in any way, you could even use Clusterio to manage completely vanilla Factorio servers.
|
|
Plugins do the work of modding in the visible changes into the game, see the [Plugins section](#plugins) for ready-made plugins you can install into a Clusterio cluster.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
- Clustered Factorio server management allowing you manage the running of Factorio servers across a fleet of physical servers from both a web interface and a command line interface.
|
|
|
|
- User list management for synchronizing in-game admins, whitelisted users, and bans to all the servers in the cluster.
|
|
|
|
- Integrated support for exporting statistics for the whole cluster to Prometheus via a single metrics endpoint.
|
|
|
|
- Extensive plugin support for adding your own cross server features to Factorio using Clusterio's communication backbone.
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
Clusterio uses a Controller/Host system setup, with the Controller server running the Web UI and controlling which Hosts run which Instances.
|
|
|
|
The Controller server runs a web server that needs to be reachable for cluster management by the user, and by the other nodes to manage them.
|
|
|
|
The Host server runs the factorio server, and will need any mods manually importing at this time, including the Factorio mods for the Clustorio Library(https://mods.factorio.com/mod/clusterio_lib) and Subspace Storage(https://mods.factorio.com/mod/subspace_storage).
|
|
|
|
Both only require a single port each.
|
|
|
|
Server Mode controls if the server is a Controller or Host, and each varaible is labeled as required for Controller, Host or All. Please ensure you fill in all required variables.
|
|
|
|
Set up the Controller server first, and from there you can generate the Controller URL and Controller Token required for the Host servers to connect.
|
|
|
|
Additional configuration options can be found in config-Controller.json and config-Host.json as relevant.
|
|
|
|
Changes to the Cluster will only be written out to the database on a graceful stop.
