# Build arguments
|
|
Two build arguments are required, namely `MC_VERSION` and `PAPERMC_VERSION`.
|
|
You can find your required versions [here](https://papermc.io/downloads). The
|
|
PaperMC Version is the number starting with the #. Do note that this script
|
|
only works with the currently supported Minecraft version, and not any of the
|
|
legacy jars.
|
|
|
|
You can then specify the versions in the `.env` file:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
MC_VERSION=1.16.4
|
|
PAPERMC_VERSION=352
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note that the leading `#` doesn't need to be added to the variable.
|
|
|
|
# Environment variables
|
|
The two possible environment variables are `XMS` and `XMX`. These specify the
|
|
initial RAM & maximum RAM usage respectively. Only `XMS` is required; `XMX` is
|
|
just set to the same value as `XMS` if not specified. You must specify them as
|
|
a number, e.g. `XMS=4`. This number represents a quantity of gigabytes.
|
|
|
|
# Mount points
|
|
There a two useful mount points defined:
|
|
|
|
* `/mc/config`: this is where all server config files reside.
|
|
* `/mc/worlds`: this is where the world files are stored.
|
|
|
|
You can mount these directories somewhere in the host file system by specifying
|
|
the mount paths in the `.env` file. These can be both absolute or relative
|
|
paths.
|
|
|
|
# Other config variables
|
|
The only other config variable is `PORT`. This specifies on what port your
|
|
server will be discoverable over the internet. The default Minecraft port is
|
|
`25565`.
|
|
|
|
# Java flags
|
|
I use the Java flags defined
|
|
[here](https://aikar.co/2018/07/02/tuning-the-jvm-g1gc-garbage-collector-flags-for-minecraft/).
|
|
If you don't agree with this decision, you can change the `ENTRYPOINT` at the
|
|
end of the `Dockerfile` to the following:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
ENTRYPOINT java \
|
|
-Xms"${XMS}G" \
|
|
-Xmx"${XMX:-$XMS}G" \
|
|
-jar /mc/server.jar \
|
|
--universe /mc/worlds \
|
|
--nogui
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will only use the flags absolutely necessary, while still allowing you to
|
|
tweak the memory variables.
