sharpscontainer/fabric-mc repository overview

⁠Fabric MC

Source code⁠

Runs a simple Alpine Linux-based Fabric⁠ server for Minecraft with AWS costs in mind. Comes preinstalled with the following:

• Lithium (mod)⁠: improves performance of the game
• Servinator (datapack): a custom-made datapack that shuts the server down if no players are connected.

⁠How to run

To run with an interactive shell, which gives you the ability to run commands from the server console:

docker run --name fabric  -ti -p 0.0.0.0:25565:25565 sharpscontainer/fabric-mc:latest

Alternatively, you can run the container in a detached state and use docker attach later to access the server console.

docker run --name fabricmc -d -p 0.0.0.0:25565:25565 sharpscontainer/fabric-mc:latest
docker attach fabricmc

⁠Data persistence

Server data is stored in the container at /home/fabric. To save this data, you can simply mount a volume on the container:

docker run --name fabricmc -d -p 0.0.0.0:25565:25565 -v server:/home/fabric sharpscontainer/fabric-mc:latest

⁠Other

It's worth specifying the amount of memory the server should use. The JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS environment variable can be used to do this. For example, to run the server with 4GB of memory:

docker run --name fabricmc -d -p 0.0.0.0:25565:25565 -e "JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS=-Xms4096M -Xmx4096M" sharpscontainer/fabric-mc:latest
