FoundryVTT-GCP

this repository should give you a hint on how to deploy foundry to GCP Cloud Run

this is more like a snipped than a repository right now

differences to felddy/foundryvtt docker image

• building gcsfuse for alpine image
• added env variable to skip download entirely (using the cached zip)
• deleting lock file on startup as the container never clears it (! could be dangerous if you have two instaces running in parallel !)

cloud setup

set your account id

export PROJECT_ID=abc-123 #replace this with your project id

assuming you are going for the region europe-west1 but feel free to change things up here

export REGION=europe-west1
export BUCKET_NAME=foundryvtt-data-$(echo $RANDOM | md5sum | head -c 10)

bucket names need to be globally unique on cloud storage

1. prepare cloud storage bucket

gcloud storage buckets create gs://$BUCKET_NAME

2. create service-account for foundry

gcloud iam service-accounts create foundry-identity
gcloud projects add-iam-policy-binding $PROJECT_ID \
    --member "serviceAccount:foundry-identity@$PROJECT_ID.iam.gserviceaccount.com" \
    --role "roles/storage.objectAdmin"

3. deploy to cloud run

you also need to provide a download url or username and password for downloading the foundry zip (details here).

gcloud run deploy foundry-app --source . \
    --execution-environment gen2 \
    --allow-unauthenticated \
    --service-account foundry-identity \
    --update-env-vars BUCKET=$BUCKET_NAME \
    --port 30000

after deploying the first time you can ommit all config parameters if you do not want to change them.

gcloud run deploy foundry-app --source .

local run

to run this image locally do not forget the --privileged flag that is required to use gcsfuse

docker run --privileged --rm -p 30000:30000 \
	-e BUCKET=foundry \
	-v ~/.config/gcloud/:/root/.config/gcloud \
	foundry

you need to mount your gcloud credentials so the local container has valid ones. Assuming you have valid ones in your gcloud folder!

thanks to

FoundryVTT for making a great Pen&Paper tool (even though it is not easily put on cloud run ;-))
felddy/foundryvtt for making a great docker image for foundry (even though I butchered some of it :-D)
