Told my friend who also helps me run a Minecraft server that I was updating things...
(edit: no we don't use Windows for Minecraft..)
#homelab #minecraft #ubuntu #windows
@wesmason how do you run your Minecraft instance? Containerized or not? Windows, Linux or Mac? And if so, which container method amd OS and why? #minecraft
@Danathar
Short answer is in docker. Longer answer is I ended up buying into a management software called AMP (https://cubecoders.com/AMP) that manages and creates the docker instances.
Even longer answer is, I used to run a heavily modded bash script called mcm that used screen to 'poor man' service the java instances. It let me start, stop, backup, and connect to each instance. It was all terminal, but it did all the heavy lifting, including nightly restarts of a group of servers via cron. But over time I wanted a little more.
All on Ubuntu Server.
@wesmason Do you run any bedrock servers for mobile?
@Danathar
No, but the person I have help me has something added to let bedrock connect to our server.
And by server, I mean we have a hub, and maybe 7 servers behind that, 4 of which are Hermitcraft map servers, 1 for testing, and 2 for actual play. More or less.
