How to use mods in a Docker based server (Linux)
Reading through the online docs, I am a bit confused as to how to set up SFTP, get the path, whether to use the server's public IP or local IP given that it is self hosted in my house.
I do not know where to get the username or password, but I do know how to copy the files using shell, I've copied FactoryServer.sh to my primary machine.

SFTP is FTP over SSH - so if you can SSH into your docker container, that works.
The IP probably be the container's local IP given that you'll need to reach its SSH port (22)... this would have to be exposed too
Username/password is what you set it to be within the docker container...

I'd like it to be that only the server device has to be actively running for the server to be active with mods if possible

Once the mods are installed, they're setup on the docker container. you can close SMM on your own PC and it won't affect anything since the files will still be there
but if you don't want to / can't SFTP into your docker container then SFTP into your server system itself and point SMM at the folder that is hooked into the docker container for persistence
Apologies for my confusion, when configuring the server there wasn't a prompt for user-pass, would this instead be an SSH user-pass?
Yeah the username and password are of the account you'd be SSH-ing in as
So they're SSH creds, yeah
