pterodactyl-wings-openrc

Setup

This guide assumes a fresh installation of Alpine Linux on the target server. If your server is running another operating system, adjust accordingly.

While this guide does cover the installation of Wings, it does not cover the installation of Pterodactyl panel. However, you can easily deploy it using Docker Compose.

Additionally, this guide assumes a development environment and does not follow best practices. If your target server is a production machine and your team doesn't want to take a risk, use a supported operating system instead.

1. Install Docker

apk update
apk add docker docker-compose
rc-update add docker
rc-service docker start

2. Install Wings

mkdir -p /etc/pterodactyl
curl -L -o /usr/local/bin/wings "https://github.com/pterodactyl/wings/releases/latest/download/wings_linux_$([[ "$(uname -m)" == "x86_64" ]] && echo "amd64" || echo "arm64")"
chmod u+x

3. Connect your node to your Pterodactyl panel

You can follow this guide for instructions. Autodeploy does work and I recommend using it. Before continuing below, I recommend running wings --debug to confirm it works.

4. Add the OpenRC script

touch /etc/init.d/wings
chmod +x /etc/init.d/wings
nano /etc/init.d/wings

Paste the contents of the OpenRC script for wings into this file, then save and quit.

5. Enable and start the service

rc-update add wings
rc-service wings start

After 5-10 seconds, your node should be connected to your panel.
