Releasing Wolf: Stream virtual desktops and games running in Docker (games-on-whales.github.io)

Hello everyone! 👋

For the past year I had fun messing around with Docker containers, Moonlight/Sunshine and HW acceleration; so much so that I've ended up building a Gamestream server from scratch!

The basic underlying idea is to allow the followings:

Share a single server (possibly headless but doesn't have to be) with multiple users
by creating virtual HW accelerated desktops
whilst keeping remote mouse, keyboard and controllers completely separated
with low latency

It's still rough around the edges, and it needs more testing from the community; if you want to check it out, here you can read the docs and here's the Github repo.

What's required to map a folder into one of the containers (i.e. retroarch)? I've attempted to edit config.toml to include it, but the main wolf container immediately crashes on boot due to interrupt code 11. There's no other error messages, just a binary stack trace.

The folder exists. I've tried directly mounting the host path as well as mounting it into Wolf-Wolf-1 and using the local path, but nothing works. Even perfectly mirrored paths don't work. Wolf appears to be running as root so I don't think it's a permissions error? I can certainly access the folders. They are a locally mounted NFS, but I've used this with dozens of containers without issue.

It's probably failing to parse the config.toml file, although that should usually print a proper error line. Have you tried deleting the file or copy and paste the default?

Looks like the mount definitions require the :ro (or maybe :rq?) at the end unlike regular docker volumes, that was the issue.

Ooops that was a lazy leftover from my side, sorry about that. Thanks for letting me know, I'll fix it soon!
