pyrodactyl by pyro.host

pyrodactyl is the Pterodactyl-based game server management panel. Our fork focuses on performance enhancements, a reimagined, accessible interface, and top-tier developer experience. Builds faster, compiles smaller: pyrodactyl is the world's best Pterodactyl.

Changes from vanilla Pterodactyl

• Smaller bundle sizes: pyrodactyl is built using Vite, and significant re-architecting of the application means pyrodactyl's initial download size is over 170 times smaller than leading, closed-source Pterodactyl forks
• Faster build times: pyrodactyl completes builds in milliseconds with the power of Turbo. Cold builds with zero cache finish in under 7 seconds.
• Faster loading times: pyrodactyl's load times are, on average, over 16 times faster than other closed-source Pterodactyl forks. Smarter code splitting and chunking means that pages you visit in the panel only load necessary resources on demand. Better caching means that everything is simply snappy.
• More secure: pyrodactyl's modern architecture means most severe and easily exploitable CVEs simply do not exist. We have also implemented SRI and integrity checks for production builds.
• More accessible: Pyro believes that gaming should be easily available for everyone. pyrodactyl builds with the latest Web accessibility guidelines in mind. pyrodactyl is entirely keyboard-navigable, even context menus., and screen-readers are easily compatible.
• More approachable: pyrodactyl's friendly, approachable interface means that anyone can confidently run a game server with Pyro.

Running Locally

pyrodactyl is the world's first Pterodactyl panel that can be developed and run locally (with Wings) on Windows machines through Vagrant.

You will need a working installation of Vagrant, the latest LTS version of NodeJS, the latest version of npm, the latest version of Turbo, and the latest version of pnpm to properly run pyro. Once you have verified you have Vagrant, NodeJS, npm, Turbo and pnpm installed, you can follow the steps below:

1. Clone the pyrodactyl panel repository
2. Run npm i to install all the packages for the website.
3. Run pnpm build:turbo to build pyrodactyl. This will cache the results of the build and upload sourcemaps to Sentry. Subsequent builds without code changes will finish in milliseconds.
4. Run vagrant up. This will setup wings and the necessary services in order to run pyrodactyl's databases, services, and app. This process could take up to 15 minutes.
5. Once you receive a message that says "pyrodactyl is now up and running at localhost:3000", visit that URL in your browser and login with the default credentials provided in your console. It's important that you use localhost to connect to pyrodactyl! If you use 127.0.0.1, you will run into CORS issues and other issues that will not be fixed.
6. Visit localhost:3000/admin to provision your first server on pyrodactyl!

Note: If you have the dev server running (pnpm dev), a development build of the app will be served at localhost:3000 with HMR. If you want to preview a production build of pyrodactyl, terminate the dev server and run pnpm build:turbo. Once it finishes, it will also be served at localhost:3000.
