valheim-dedicated

What is this?

This downloads and starts up a dedicated server for Valheim.

This is based off of steamcmd docker image, more documentation here.

How do I use it?

Supply these environment variables to configure the server:

  • -e SERVER_NAME is the name that will show up on the Valheim server list
  • -e SERVER_PASSWORD is the password into your glorious world
  • -e WORLD_NAME is the name of your glorious world

You will also need to forward these ports from your host:

  • 2456/udp
  • 2457/udp
  • 2458/udp

And finally, share a VOLUME from the host: -v "C:\Users\pwhel\Documents\valheim":/home/steam/.config/unity3d/IronGate/Valheim. This is the directory that saves the state of the world.

Example: docker run -dit -e SERVER_NAME=Yggdrasil -e SERVER_PASSWORD=12345 -e WORLD_NAME=Yggdrasil -v /home/pat/valheim/backup:/home/steam/.config/unity3d/IronGate/Valheim -p 2456-2458:2456-2458/udp valheim-dedicated

What do I need to run it?

No idea. Currently, internet suggets 2 core CPU and 4 gigs RAM.

By default, the server idles at 1.3CPU and 1.7GB RAM.
