⁠How to use

Here we have 2 options. The first option is run only in a docker container. The second option is to run it in a Docker container with Kubernetes. There are different methods to do this.

⁠How to use in a Docker container

This image is without the file server.properties. To add it first pull the image, open a bash terminal in it, open the ports and make a file with our configuration (I use this: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RedxLus/open-source-hosting/master/HOSTING/GAMES/Minecraft/server.properties⁠ but you can use other or edit this one).

Commands to run in docker the minecraft server:

1. Download the image.

docker pull redxlus/minecraft-server:SPIGOT-1.16.5

1. Create a local volume to save the world data of the server.

docker volume create my-minecraft-data

1. Run the container, open the port, attach the volume and open a bash line in it.

docker run -ti -p 25565:25565 -v my-minecraft-data:/minecraft/world redxlus/minecraft-server:SPIGOT-1.16.5 /bin/bash

1. Download the file server.properties. You can edit, download other, etc.

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RedxLus/open-source-hosting/master/HOSTING/GAMES/Minecraft/server.properties -O /minecraft/server.properties

1. Run the Minecraft server.

java -Xms512m -Xmx2G -jar /minecraft/spigot-*.jar nogui

1. Now we press in the keyboard: CTRL + P +Q (at the same time) to make the container running in background. Wait a few minutes to let start the minecraft server and connect using the IP of the machine and the port setted in the last command. Can check with docker logs the status.
