trfc/vanilla-terraria repository overview
Containerized Vanilla Terraria Server
A vanilla Terraria server image! For TShock, check out the following: | GitHub | Docker |
A containerized version of Terraria Server running on Linux, courtesy of Mono!
Quickstart
First and foremost, you're going to need Docker. Please check out Docker's documentation for how to install it on the various supported platforms. While the install may be different per platform, the rest of the steps will remain the same (containers sure are nice, aren't they?).
After installing docker, just run the following command and wait a few minutes:
docker run -d -p 7777:7777 --memory=500m --mount source=terraria,target=/world --name="terraria" trfc/vanilla-terraria:latest -autocreate 1 -world /world/Terrarium.wld
Explanation of the command above
| Parameter/Option | Description |
|---|---|
-d | run the container in detached mode so you can go about your day. |
-p 7777:7777 | map port 7777 to the container's port 7777 so that you can connect to the server (since the command does not change the server from its default port). |
--memory=500m | set the max amount of memory to use so that your system doesn't crash because of out of memory exceptions. |
--mount source=terraria,target=/world | create (or attach to if existing) a volume so that your world persists even when the container shuts down. |
--name="terraria" | name the running container "terraria" |
trfc/vanilla-terraria:latest | use this image 😊 |
-autocreate 1 -world /world/Terrarium.wld | create a small world named Terrarium OR use an existing world named Terrarium (default Terraria server command) |
Quickstart with more control
After installing docker, start the container (and your server) in interactive mode:
docker run -it -p 7777:7777 --memory=500m --mount source=terraria,target=/world --name="terraria" trfc/vanilla-terraria:latest
Next, go through the prompts as it asks (make note of the name of your world).
Finally, after the server starts, exit by pressing Ctrl+p followed immediately by Ctrl+q. This will cause the container to switch to daemon mode, which will allow it to keep running in the background.
