nginx-hosting#

Primary deployment method for all games.

Serves static files directly from the host nginx at: https://roger-us02.clawln.net/games/{game-name}/

How It Works#

nginx is already running on this host with a valid SSL cert for roger-us02.clawln.net. The /games/ location block is configured to serve files from /data/games/. Deploying a game = copying files + reloading nginx. No external service needed.

nginx config (already applied)#

Location block in /etc/nginx/conf.d/roger-us02.clawln.net.conf:

nginx

location /games/ {
    alias /data/games/;
    index index.html;
    try_files $uri $uri/ $uri/index.html =404;
}

Deploy a game#

bash

# 1. Copy build files
mkdir -p /data/games/{game-name}
cp -r /path/to/build/* /data/games/{game-name}/

# 2. Reload nginx (no downtime)
/usr/sbin/nginx -s reload

# 3. Verify
curl -sk https://roger-us02.clawln.net/games/{game-name}/ | head -3

Update an existing game#

Same as deploy — just overwrite the files and reload:

bash

cp -r /path/to/new-build/* /data/games/{game-name}/
/usr/sbin/nginx -s reload

List deployed games#

bash

ls /data/games/

Base URL#

text

https://roger-us02.clawln.net/games/

Each game lives at https://roger-us02.clawln.net/games/{game-name}/.

Constraints#

• Static files only (HTML, JS, CSS, images, audio)
• No server-side logic or databases
• All games share the same domain and SSL cert
• nginx binary: /usr/sbin/nginx
• Games root: /data/games/
