docker-dwarffortress-novnc

Why

I wanted to run dwarf fortress on a headless server and be able to manage my dwarves via browser. There are already a few repositories dealing with this but they're either outdated or they lack dfhack.

How-to

1. docker-compose up -d df
2. browse to localhost:8080 and connect!

Dwarf Fortress should be running in workspace 1 with the dfhack console in workspace 2

I've added the keyboard shortcuts ctrl+shift F1..12 to switch between workspaces. Default shortcut (win + 1..12) doesn't work very well in a browser if you're on windows...

Todo

• minify
• use newer ubuntu-distro
• parameterize
• proper wait for fluxbox
• try using the linux lnp
