# Minecraft Server

This docker image contains a Minecraft server to self-host your own Java
Edition server and optionally MCUpdater modpack.

To secure this service, we suggest a separate reverse proxy server, such as an
[NGINX](https://nginx.com/) container.

- [Alpine Linux](https://alpinelinux.org/) w/ [S6 Overlay](https://github.com/just-containers/s6-overlay)
- [Minecraft](https://minecraft.net/) w/ [MCUpdater](https://mcupdater.com/)

**Please note, you will still need to agree to the EULA the first time you
start up the server by changing ``eula=false`` to ``eula=true`` in the
``/mnt/config/data/server/eula.txt`` file.**

This container does not currently include its own web server. To expose your
modpack to the public, you will need to host the modpack directory on a web
server.

You can spin up a quick temporary test container like this:

~~~
docker run --rm -p 25565:25565 -it nephatrine/minecraft:latest /bin/bash
~~~

## Configuration Variables

You can set these parameters using the syntax ``-e "VARNAME=VALUE"`` on your
``docker run`` command. Some of these may only be used during initial
configuration and further changes may need to be made in the generated
configuration files.

- ``FABRIC_VERSION``: Fabric Loader Version (*""*)
- ``MINECRAFT_VERSION``: Minecraft Version (*""*)
- ``JAVA_OPTS``: Java Commandline Arguments (*""*)
- ``MODPACK_NAME``: Modpack Name (*custom*)
- ``MODPACK_PUBLIC``: Modpack Download URL (*https://*``[SERVER_PUBLIC]``)
- ``PUID``: Mount Owner UID (*1000*)
- ``PGID``: Mount Owner GID (*100*)
- ``SERVER_NAME``: Server Name (*custom*)
- ``SERVER_PUBLIC``: Server IP/FQDN (*""*)
- ``TZ``: System Timezone (*America/New_York*)

## Persistent Mounts

You can provide a persistent mountpoint using the ``-v /host/path:/container/path``
syntax. These mountpoints are intended to house important configuration files,
logs, and application state (e.g. databases) so they are not lost on image
update.

- ``/mnt/config``: Persistent Data.

Do not share ``/mnt/config`` volumes between multiple containers as they may
interfere with the operation of one another.

You can perform some basic configuration of the container using the files and
directories listed below.

- ``/mnt/config/data/server/eula.txt``: Accept Minecraft EULA. [*]
- ``/mnt/config/data/server/server.properties``: Set Minecraft Properties. [*]
- ``/mnt/config/etc/crontabs/<user>``: User Crontabs. [*]
- ``/mnt/config/etc/logrotate.conf``: Logrotate Global Configuration.
- ``/mnt/config/etc/logrotate.d/``: Logrotate Additional Configuration.
- ``/mnt/config/www/minecraft/modpack/client/*``: Client-Side Optional Mods. [*]
- ``/mnt/config/www/minecraft/modpack/config/*``: Mod Configuration Files. [*]
- ``/mnt/config/www/minecraft/modpack/extract/*``: Modpack Zipfiles. [*]
- ``/mnt/config/www/minecraft/modpack/mods/*``: Minecraft Mods. [*]
- ``/mnt/config/www/minecraft/modpack/optional/*``: Optional Mods. [*]
- ``/mnt/config/www/minecraft/modpack/scripts/*``: Minecraft Tweaking Scripts. [*]
- ``/mnt/config/www/minecraft/modpack/server/*``: Server-Side Optional Mods. [*]
- ``/mnt/config/www/minecraft/modpack.xsl``: MCUpdater Modpack Theming. [*]

**[*] Changes to some configuration files may require service restart to take
immediate effect.**

## Network Services

This container runs network services that are intended to be exposed outside
the container. You can map these to host ports using the ``-p HOST:CONTAINER``
or ``-p HOST:CONTAINER/PROTOCOL`` syntax.

- ``25565/tcp+udp``: Minecraft Server. This is the game server.
