⁠A bedrock Minecraft PE Server on Docker

⁠Start the server

⁠1. Install Docker in your server

apt install docker.io

or you can follow this documentation : How to install Docker⁠

⁠2. Create a folder for server data

This folder is for your world data and some configuration files, it contains permissions.json,server.properties,allowlist.json,worlds, if you use an empty folder, all the files will be created automatically, for example /opt/mcpe-data

mkdir -p /opt/mcpe-data

⁠3. Deploy the server

docker run -itd --restart=always --name=mcpe --net=host \
  -v /opt/mcpe-data:/data \
  lomot/minecraft-bedrock:latest

⁠Upgrade the server

⁠1. Backup your data

Backup the folder /opt/mcpe-data

cp -r /opt/mcpe-data /opt/mcpe-data.bak

⁠2. Exit and delete the old container

docker container stop mcpe
docker container rm mcpe

⁠3. Start a new container

docker run -itd --restart=always --name=mcpe --net=host \
  -v /opt/mcpe-data:/data \
  lomot/minecraft-bedrock:latest

⁠Manage the server

⁠Enter or quit the game console

docker attach mcpe

To quit, press ctrl + p + q

Use ctrl + c or ctrl + dto kill the process

⁠Use this command to stop/start/restart/rm the server

docker container stop/start/restart/rm mcpe

⁠Change the server port

To change the server port, update server-port in the fileserver.properties

Using bridge networks will decrease the network performance, it is supposed to use host networks.

⁠About addons, behavior_packs and resource_packs

There are too many files about addons to configure, so I made another image, to use this image, you need to manage server folder by yourself, such as update and configuration files, you can download the server files here Minecraft server⁠.

How to use:

docker run -itd --restart=always --name=mcpe --net=host \
  -v /opt/mcpe-data:/mcpe \
  lomot/minecraft-bedrock:base
