itzg/minecraft-server repository overview

This docker image provides a Minecraft Server that will automatically download the latest stable version at startup. You can also run/upgrade to any specific version or the latest snapshot.

To simply use the latest stable version, run

docker run -d -p 25565:25565 --name mc -v mc-data:/data itzg/minecraft-server

where the standard server port, 25565, will be exposed on your host machine.

⁠Looking for a Bedrock Dedicated Server

For Minecraft clients running on consoles, mobile, or native Windows, you'll need to use this image instead:
