DragonWarden

A Windows desktop manager for a RuneScape: Dragonwilds dedicated server, built with Tauri 2, React, Vite, Tailwind, and TypeScript.

What it does

• Installs or updates Steam app 4019830 through a local SteamCMD installation.
• Starts the server with the recommended -log -NewConsole arguments and safely locks config editing while it runs.
• Creates and preserves RSDragonwilds/Saved/Config/WindowsServer/DedicatedServer.ini values.
• Reports local UDP 7777 listener, firewall readiness, and public IP; the UI clearly marks router/NAT verification as an external test because UDP forwarding cannot be reliably self-tested from the LAN.
• Backs up only changed world saves, zips older snapshots, and evicts oldest backups above the selected storage limit.
• Imports .sav world files, lists live saves and managed backups, duplicates worlds, and restores or deletes them only after confirmation.

Run locally

npm install
npm run tauri dev

To produce the Windows installer from a Windows machine with the Tauri prerequisites installed:

npm run tauri build

Build on GitHub Actions

This repository includes a Windows runner workflow at .github/workflows/build-windows.yml. After pushing the repository to GitHub, open Actions → Build Windows installer → Run workflow. When it completes, download the DragonWarden-windows-installer artifact; it contains the NSIS setup .exe.

The workflow also runs when you publish a GitHub Release or push a version tag, such as v0.1.0:

git tag v0.1.0
git push origin v0.1.0

Notes

The server’s required settings are OwnerId, ServerName, DefaultWorldName, and AdminPassword. World password is optional. These are the settings documented by Jagex’s Dedicated Servers guide.
