Reforger Whitelist

Reforger Whitelist is a Python script designed to monitor log files of a game server and kick unwhitelisted players automatically. It supports two types of whitelists: a SQLite database and a JSON file. When a player connects to the server, the script checks if the player is whitelisted in either the database or the JSON file. If the player is not whitelisted, the script executes a kick command via RCON (Remote Console) to remove the player from the server.

Features

• Monitors log files of the game server in real-time.
• Supports both SQLite database and JSON file whitelists.
• Automatically kicks unwhitelisted players upon connection.
• Provides detailed logging for monitoring and debugging.

Requirements

• Python 3.x
• BERCon (RCON tool for executing commands on the game server)
• SQLite (if using a database whitelist)

Usage

1. Install the required dependencies:

   pip install argparse

2. Ensure BERCon is installed and accessible in the system PATH.

3. Configure the script by providing command-line arguments:

   python reforgewhitelist.py --whitelist-type [database/json] --whitelist-path [path_to_whitelist_file] --base-log-dir [base_directory_of_log_files] --rcon-host [rcon_host_address] --rcon-port [rcon_port_number] --rcon-password [rcon_password]

   • whitelist-type: Type of whitelist to use (database or JSON).
   • whitelist-path: Path to the whitelist file (database or JSON).
   • base-log-dir: Base directory to look for log files.
   • rcon-host: RCON host address.
   • rcon-port: RCON port number.
   • rcon-password: RCON password.

4. Run the script:

   python reforgewhitelist.py

5. Sit back and let the script automatically monitor and manage player whitelisting on your game server!

Customization

• You can customize the logging behavior by modifying the setup_logging() function in the script.
• For advanced customization, you can extend the script to support additional whitelist types or integrate with other server management tools.
