Minecraft Server for Docker on the Raspberry Pi.
Docker Hub: https://hub.docker.com/r/frozenfoxx/rpi-minecraft-server/
git clone git@github.com:frozenfoxx/rpi-minecraft-server.git
cd rpi-minecraft-server
docker build .
The following will set up, install, and run the latest Minecraft server. This is fine for testing but not ideal for long term.
docker run -d --name=minecraft_server \
-p 25565:25565 \
-v /srv \
-e EULA=true \
-e DEFAULT_OP=[name] \
frozenfoxx/rpi-minecraft-server
To persist your world data, plugins, and other information you're going to want to create a data container (or otherwise mount storage). The following will quickly create one:
docker create -v /srv --name minecraft_data frozenfoxx/rpi-minecraft-server /bin/true
You can then mount this container using --volumes-from
:
docker run -d --name=minecraft_server \
-p 25565:25565 \
--volumes-from minecraft_data \
-e EULA=true \
-e DEFAULT_OP=[name] \
frozenfoxx/rpi-minecraft-server
You can also adjust and deploy the server via the docker-compose.yml
as such:
docker-compose up -d minecraft
This image can be configured using environment variables. The following are the most common used.
EULA
: required by Mojang.DEFAULT_OP
: required when creating a new container. Any usernames specified will be added to theops.json
file.JAVA_OPS
: JVM options.MINECRAFT_HOME
: home of the Minecraft server (default:/srv
)MOTD
: message of the day.LEVEL_NAME
: world to load.LEVEL_SEED
: world seed.DIFFICULTY
: difficulty of the world.GAMEMODE
: game type to load.PVP
: whether to allow Player vs Player combat.
- Accepting the Mojang EULA is absolutely required to use this image. By setting the environment variable
EULA
you are signifying your agreement.
