NOTE: No longer working on this... I am currently experimenting on github.com/curseforge-docker/modpack-servers . I would really love for some help, suggestions and pull-requests to that project instead.
If you are willing to adopt this project, please fork this repository and do so. Please contact me, for adding you to the Docker Hub project.
So, you want to run your own FTB Minecraft Server? Use these Docker images to do so!
To use this, you will need some knowledge on how to use Docker. Please read about docker here: https://docs.docker.com/learn/
Pull the docker images from https://hub.docker.com/u/feedthebeast/
TL;DR; docker run -it feedthebeast/direwolf20
The images are all hosted on Docker hub under the organization feedthebeast and the repositories all have names mapping to their real mod pack name.
To make sure that you keep the world and McMyAdmin backups I recommend you to use docker volumes to mount specific folders on your host machine into the container. On my personal server I've done this:
mkdir -p /var/lib/minecraft/{world,backups}
docker run \
-v /var/lib/minecraft/world:/opt/minecraft/world \
-v /var/lib/minecraft/backups:/home/minecraft/mcmyadmin/Backups \
--name minecraft \
feedthebeast/beyondThis is if you leave the LEVEL_NAME variable with the default value world
Changing the LEVEL_NAME variable, you need to also change the name of the
containers world directory accordingly.
There are three important ports that you will want to communicate with when you're starting your server.
- 8080: This is the port for communicating with McMyAdmin
- 8123: The port DynMap listens to
- 25565: Standars Minecraft port
These ports are all exposed in the Dockerfile when building the images,
but for you to be able to communicate with them, you will need to
publish them as well.
Use either eg -p8080:8080 to publish the port 8080 or use --net host
to make all ports published directly on the host machine.
examples:
docker run -p8080:8080 -p25565:25565 -p8123:8123 feedthebeast/infinityor
docker run --net host feedthebeast/infinityThe latest tag might not always be correct, just so that is said.
Version tags in the docker repo should always be MCV_MPV where MCV is the
Minecraft version, and MPV is the mod pack version.
So say you want direwolf20's pack version 1.5.1 for minecraft 1.10
you should then run the command
docker run -it feedthebeast/direwolf20:1.10_1.5.1
You can config the server.properties file using these environment variables:
| Variable | default value |
|---|---|
| MAX_TICK_TIME | 60000 |
| GENERATOR_SETTINGS | |
| FORCE_GAMEMODE | false |
| ALLOW_NETHER | true |
| GAMEMODE | 0 |
| ENABLE_QUERY | false |
| PLAYER_IDLE_TIMEOUT | 0 |
| DIFFICULTY | 1 |
| SPAWN_MONSTERS | true |
| OP_PERMISSION_LEVEL | 4 |
| ANNOUNCE_PLAYER_ACHIEVEMENT | true |
| PVP | true |
| SNOOPER_ENABLED | true |
| LEVEL_TYPE | DEFAULT |
| HARDCORE | false |
| ENABLE_COMMAND_BLOCK | false |
| MAX_PLAYERS | 20 |
| NETWORK_COMPRESSION_THRESHOLD | 256 |
| RESOURCE_PACK_SHA1 | |
| MAX_WORLD_SIZE | 29999984 |
| SERVER_PORT | 25565 |
| SERVER_IP | |
| SPAWN_NPCS | true |
| ALLOW_FLIGHT | false |
| LEVEL_NAME | world |
| VIEW_DISTANCE | 10 |
| RESOURCE_PACK | |
| SPAWN_ANIMALS | true |
| WHITE_LIST_ENABLED | false |
| GENERATE_STRUCTURES | true |
| ONLINE_MODE | true |
| MAX_BUILD_HEIGHT | 256 |
| LEVEL_SEED | |
| USE_NATIVE_TRANSPORT | true |
| ENABLE_RCON | false |
Say you want to create a server with the level seed "mylevelseed", then you use this command:
docker run -it -e LEVEL_SEED="mylevelseed" feedthebeast/direwolf20
Read more about environment variables in docker here: https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/run/#/set-environment-variables--e---env---env-file
Default login is admin:pass123
Right now this login will be reset if the container is restarted, due to the way the feedthebeast/ftbbase image is built now. I will try to rethink this.
Please feel free to create pull requests and write about your issues here on GitHub. Though, if you are having trouble using docker or something is wrong with the modpack, please either read the docker documentation or refer to the mod pack author(s).
Whoever works on building the mod packs!
I, artheus, only make them more available for the users who wants to host their own servers.
