# Godot 4.x Headless Server as a Container

This repository contains a Dockerfile to build a Godot 4.x headless server container.

It can be used for running Godot in headless mode as a standalone server for 

things like multiplayer games running in The Cloud :cloud:.

## Usage

### Build the container

This repo provides a Makefile that will build all Dockerfile containers.

```bash

make

```

### Run the container

To confirm it works, you can run the following commands once you have built

the container.

```bash

docker run godot

```

You can also run that container in something like Amazons ECS or Kubernetes. But

that exercise is left to the reader, for now.

## TODO

Support other runtime platforms:

- [ ] Windows

- [ ] MacOS

- [ ] Non-Ubuntu Linux

    + [ ] CentOS

    + [ ] Your favorite distro here

My preferred deployment operating system is Ubuntu so I plan on mainly

supporting that distro myself.
