# Docker Server
We provide Minetest server Docker images using the GitHub container registry.
Images are built on each commit and available using the following tag scheme:
* `ghcr.io/minetest/minetest:master` (latest build)
* `ghcr.io/minetest/minetest:<tag>` (specific Git tag)
* `ghcr.io/minetest/minetest:latest` (latest Git tag, which is the stable release)
See [here](https://github.com/minetest/minetest/pkgs/container/minetest) for all available tags.
For a quick test you can easily run:
```shell
docker run ghcr.io/minetest/minetest:master
```
To use it in a production environment, you should use volumes bound to the Docker host to persist data and modify the configuration:
```shell
docker create -v /home/minetest/data/:/var/lib/minetest/ -v /home/minetest/conf/:/etc/minetest/ ghcr.io/minetest/minetest:master
```
You may also want to use [Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose):
```yaml
---
version: "2"
services:
minetest_server:
image: ghcr.io/minetest/minetest:master
restart: always
networks:
- default
volumes:
- /home/minetest/data/:/var/lib/minetest/
- /home/minetest/conf/:/etc/minetest/
ports:
- "30000:30000/udp"
- "127.0.0.1:30000:30000/tcp"
```
Data will be written to `/home/minetest/data` on the host, and configuration will be read from `/home/minetest/conf/minetest.conf`.
**Note:** If you don't understand the previous commands please read the [official Docker documentation](https://docs.docker.com) before use.
