Minecraft Java

Minecraft Java runs over TCP and stores its server data under /data. Swarm Hosts waits for the TCP socket to open before marking the deployment as fully running.

Basics you should know

  • Default protocol: TCP
  • Typical port: 25565/tcp
  • Persistent data: /data
  • World data: usually /data/world

1) Open Launch. 2) Choose Minecraft Java. 3) Leave EULA=TRUE and adjust VERSION, TYPE, MOTD, and MAX_PLAYERS as needed. 4) Keep the default MEMORY in sync with the container memory limit you choose in the UI. 5) Click Launch.

Common paths

  • Server properties: /data/server.properties
  • World: /data/world
  • Logs: /data/logs
  • Plugins / mods / packs: image-dependent, but most server-managed content is persisted under /data

Player connection info

Share the swarm host public IP and the assigned TCP port:

<HOST_PUBLIC_IP>:<PORT>
