Team Fortress 2 Dedicated Server Docker images for multiple purposes

$ docker run \
  -v "maps:/home/tf2/server/tf/maps" \
  -e "RCON_PASSWORD=foobar123" \
  -e "SERVER_HOSTNAME=melkor.tf" \
  -e "STV_NAME=melkor TV" \
  --network=host \
  ghcr.io/melkortf/tf2-base

Concerning server.cfg

Each TF2 image has its own server.cfg.template file that is used to generate server.cfg. The docker container uses envsubst to replace environment variables in the template file. For example, this line in server.cfg.template:

rcon_password "${RCON_PASSWORD}"

when launched with these params:

$ docker run --network=host -e RCON_PASSWORD=123456 -itd ghcr.io/melkortf/tf2-base

will generate the following server.cfg:

rcon_password "123456"

There are many more configuration options, you will find them all below.

Maps

In order to make the image as small as possible, the only map shipped with the image is cp_badlands. This has also the advantage of letting you maintain only one directory with all the maps and share it between all the containers. Just mount /home/tf2/server/tf/maps to your local directory that contains all the maps you need:

$ docker run -v "/usr/local/data/tf2/maps:/home/tf2/server/tf/maps" --network=host -d ghcr.io/melkortf/tf2-base

If you want to have all the maps available on serveme.tf's FastDL, just type the following command:

$ wget -r --no-parent --accept bsp -l1 --cut-dirs=2 --no-host-directories -nc https://dl.serveme.tf/maps/

It will download every single map to the current directory.
