```
## Component Details
### Web Panel (Current Repository)
**Purpose**: Central control interface for managing game servers across multiple remote machines.
**Key Files**:
- `index.php` - Main application entry point
- `ogp_api.php` - REST API for external integrations
- `includes/lib_remote.php` - Agent communication library
- `includes/config.inc.php` - Database and core configuration
- `modules/` - Modular functionality (40+ modules)
**Database**: MySQL with configurable table prefix (`ogp_` by default)
**Security**:
- XXTEA encryption for agent communication
- Session management for web interface
- Token-based API authentication
### Remote Agents
**Purpose**: Execute game server operations on remote machines under control of the web panel.
**Communication**:
- Encrypted TCP connections using XXTEA
- Default port: Configurable per agent
- Request/response protocol for commands
**Operations**:
- Start/stop/restart game servers
- File management (upload/download/edit)
- Server installation and updates
- Resource monitoring
- Log file access
## Module System
The web panel uses a modular architecture with the following core modules:
- **server** - Game server management
- **gamemanager** - Game definitions and templates
- **user_games** - User server assignments
- **administration** - System administration
- **ftp** - File transfer protocol access
- **mysql** - Database management
- **backup-restore** - Server backup functionality
- **rcon** - Remote console access
- **tickets** - Support ticket system
- **billing** - Payment and subscription management
## Communication Protocol
### Agent Connection
1. Web panel establishes TCP connection to agent
2. Commands are encrypted using XXTEA with shared key
3. Agent processes command and returns encrypted response
4. Connection is maintained or closed based on operation
### API Endpoints
The web panel exposes REST API endpoints for:
- Token management
- Server control (start/stop/restart)
- Server creation and configuration
- User and game management
Example API calls:
```
POST /ogp_api.php?token/create/{user}/{password}
GET /ogp_api.php?server/list (with token)
POST /ogp_api.php?server/restart (with token and server_id)
```
## Development Setup
### Prerequisites
- PHP 7.0+ with extensions: mysqli, openssl, zip
- MySQL/MariaDB database
- Web server (Apache/Nginx)
### Installation
1. Clone repository to web directory
2. Configure database in `includes/config.inc.php`
3. Run database installation via web interface
4. Configure agents on remote servers
5. Add agent connections through web interface
## File Structure

# Open Game Panel Development Guide
## Understanding the Codebase
This guide helps developers understand and work with the Open Game Panel codebase effectively.
## Component Integration
### How the Web Panel and Agents Work Together
1. **Agent Registration**
- Agents are registered through the web panel's administration interface
- Each agent requires: IP address, port, encryption key, connection timeout
- Agent connectivity is tested during registration
2. **Command Flow**
```
User Action (Web UI) → Web Panel → Encrypted Command → Agent → Game Server
← Encrypted Response ← ←
```
3. **Data Synchronization**
- Web panel maintains server state in MySQL database
- Agents report status updates to panel
- File changes are synchronized between panel and agents
### Key Integration Points
**Game Server Management**:
- `modules/server/server.php` - Server control interface
- `includes/lib_remote.php` - Agent communication
- Database tables: `ogp_servers`, `ogp_games`, `ogp_user_games`
**File Management**:
- `modules/ftp/` - Web-based file manager
- `modules/litefm/` - Alternative file manager
- Agents handle actual file operations on remote systems
**Configuration Management**:
- `modules/editconfigfiles/` - Config file editor
- `modules/gamemanager/` - Game templates and settings
- Agents apply configurations to game servers
## Database Schema Overview
### Core Tables
**ogp_servers** - Game server instances
```sql
- server_id (Primary Key)
- agent_id (Foreign Key to ogp_agents)
- user_id (Foreign Key to ogp_users)
- game_id (Foreign Key to ogp_games)
- server_name, ip, port, home_path, etc.
```
**ogp_agents** - Remote agent machines
```sql
- agent_id (Primary Key)
- agent_name, agent_ip, agent_port
- encryption_key, timeout
- os_type (linux/windows)
```
**ogp_games** - Game definitions
```sql
- game_id (Primary Key)
- game_name, installer_name
- cfg_template, startup_cmd
- platform (linux/windows/both)
```
**ogp_users** - Panel users
```sql
- user_id (Primary Key)
- username, password_hash
- user_email, access_rights
```
## Agent Communication Deep Dive
### Encryption Protocol
```php
// lib_remote.php - Example encryption
$enc = new Crypt_XXTEA();
$enc->setKey($encryption_key);
$encrypted_data = $enc->encrypt($command_json);
```
### Command Structure
```json
{
"action": "server_action",
"parameters": {
"home_id": "123",
"action": "start"
}
}
```
### Response Format
```json
{
"status": "success|error",
"message": "Operation completed",
"data": {...}
}
```
## Module Development
### Creating a New Module
1. **Directory Structure**
```
modules/mymodule/
├── mymodule.php # Main module file
├── install.xml # Installation metadata
└── lang/ # Language files
└── English/
└── modules/
└── mymodule.php
```
2. **Module Template**
```php
<?php
// modules/mymodule/mymodule.php
// Security check
if (!defined('OGP_LANG')) {
exit('Direct access not allowed');
}
// Module initialization
function exec_ogp_module() {
global $db, $view;
// Module logic here
}
?>
```
3. **Language File**
```php
<?php
// lang/English/modules/mymodule.php
define('OGP_LANG_mymodule_title', 'My Module');
define('OGP_LANG_mymodule_description', 'Module description');
?>
```
### Module Registration
Modules are auto-discovered from the `modules/` directory and registered in the database.
## Common Development Tasks
### Adding a New Game
1. Create game definition in `modules/gamemanager/`
2. Add server configuration templates
3. Test installation and startup procedures
4. Add game-specific configuration files
### Extending the API
1. Add new endpoints to `ogp_api.php`
2. Implement authentication checks
3. Add request validation
4. Document API changes
### Creating Custom Themes
1. Copy existing theme from `themes/`
2. Modify CSS and template files
3. Test responsive design
4. Add theme metadata
## Debugging Guide
### Web Panel Debugging
**Enable Debug Mode**:
```php
// index.php - Change error reporting
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
```
**Database Queries**:
```php
// Add to functions.php for query debugging
$db->debug = true;
```
**Agent Communication**:
```php
// lib_remote.php - Add debugging
echo "Sending command: " . $command . "\n";
echo "Response: " . $response . "\n";
```
