Paper 26.3

Auto-updated

The Paper server for Minecraft 26.3 with 7 selectable plugins baked in. Everything is inactive until you list it in PLUGINS.

docker run -d --name minecraft \
  -p 25565:25565 \
  -v minecraft-data:/data \
  -e EULA=TRUE \
  -e PLUGINS=chunky,griefprevention,luckperms \
  ghcr.io/hambn/minecraft-server-paper:26.3

EULA=TRUE means you accept the Minecraft EULA. More in Docker Compose and configuration.

Bundled plugins

Baked into the image and inactive by default. Activate them with PLUGINS, a comma-separated list of IDs; required dependencies are added automatically.
