This is a simple docker container for Mojang's bedrock server software.
The startup script will download and unpack the server software from Mojang's site. Update the link in the docker-compose.yml
file to get the latest version.
Copy the server.properties.default
file to server.properties
and edit it to your preferences. You can put an existing Bedrock world file in the data/worlds folder and point to it using the level-name=
setting in the server.properties file.
Build the docker image first. Change to the directory containing the Dockerfile and run:
docker build -t bedrock_server .
If you are used to using docker-compose, you may be used to using docker-compose up
don't do this here, because you want to attach to the server with an interactive session.
Instead, use:
docker-compose run --service-ports --rm bedrock_server
This will also remove the container after running. Run docker-compose down
to remove the remaining network setup. --service-ports
is required to expose the ports when using run
. This command is in the startserver.sh file for convenience.
