Installation Steps
Below are the steps for deploying the Floating Server using executable files.
Download the executable from this link and unzip the file. After unzipping, you will find a directory named web and the executable file.
The server requires a config.yaml file. This file is where you define the server settings, including the database and other optional parameters such as API URLs, product licenses, and login credentials.
Redis:
File-Based Database:
This creates a database directory in the current location to store the data.
Define the database type and address in your configuration file before running the server. You can choose between two database options:
- Redis: A fast, key-value database for efficient local storage.
- File-Based Database: Embedded, suitable for Windows environments.
Once your configuration file is in place, run the executable with the following:
Windows: ./floating-server.exe
Linux: ./floating-server
You can customize how the server runs by specifying additional options, such as the port and configuration file path by customizing the run command.
./floating-server.exe -config /path/to/config.yaml
