Part of the [[Server fixes]].

Meant to become an easy to use and everywhere accessible administration interface mostly for tasks like player management. (Currently in early development stage)

== Current features ==
* Viewing the map of the game as much as visited by players.

== Activation ==
The following conditions must be met for the webserver to become active:
* ControlPanel must be enabled in serverconfig
* The contents of [http://svn.illy.bz/7dtd/binary-improvements/webserver/] must be put in a folder named ''webserver'' directly in the game (engine) folder. Three ways to do so:
  * (recommended) Get the files with a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_Subversion SVN] client. This way you can easily update the files later on by just using the SVN update command. E.g. with a console client:
{{{
cd /path/to/7dtd/game/folder
svn co http://svn.illy.bz/7dtd/binary-improvements/webserver/
}}}
  * You can get that folder as a ''.tar.gz''-file [http://websvn.illy.bz/dl.php?repname=7dtd&path=%2Fbinary-improvements%2Fwebserver%2F&isdir=1 here] and extract it to your game folder. Make sure to rename the extract folder from ''webserver.r{number}'' to just ''webserver''
  * Download the files individually from SVN

If both are true the webserver will listen on the port defined as ControlPanelPort (from serverconfig) + 2. I.e. if you have set ControlPanelPort to 8080 (as it is by default) the webserver will listen on ''!http://<yourIpOrDomain>:8082/''

If you want to enable basic '''authorization''' on the webserver create a file in the webserver folder called "protect".

== Is it running? ==
To check if the webserver was started look at the output_log.txt. It should contain a line like:
{{{
1.234 Started Webserver on 8082 (authentication enabled)
}}}
If it does the server was started on the given port. If not one of the above mentioned conditions is not met.

== Planned stuff ==
* List of players (filter by online, banned, admin/mod, permission level ... anything else?)
  * Info: name, steamid, ip, playtime, last seen, online/offline, stats, last position ...
  * Kick/Ban, change permission level
  * show on map
  * show trail
  * Send PM
  * ... ?
* List of command permissions
* Chat log
* Console log
* ... ?
