Garry's Mod Dedicated Server

A lean Garry's Mod dedicated server image built on top of SteamCMD and Ubuntu, designed to run as a non-root user by default. It ships with a simple entrypoint that starts srcds_run using sensible defaults, and will populate server.cfg from image defaults if the file is missing or empty.

Quick start

Running game servers as root is gross. If you're bind mounting the cache directory and configuration files, ensure they are accessible by UID 1000 and GID 1000 or you may be greeted by permission errors. The workshop cache is persisted at /data/garrysmod/cache so addons don’t re-download every time you recreate the container.

docker-compose.yml

services:
  garrysmod-server:
    image: legendaryfire/gmod-server:latest
    container_name: garrysmod-server
    volumes:
      - ./games/garrysmod/cache:/data/garrysmod/cache  # Persistent Steam workshop downloads
      - ./games/garrysmod/server.cfg:/data/garrysmod/cfg/server.cfg  # Server configuration
      - ./games/garrysmod/users.txt:/data/garrysmod/settings/users.txt  # User configuration
    ports:
      - "27016:27016/udp"  # Game Server
      - "27016:27016/tcp"  # RCON
    environment:
      - PORT: "27016"
      - GAMEMODE: "terrortown"
      - GSLT: "MY_STEAM_GSLT_KEY_HERE"
      - ARGS: "+host_workshop_collection 282911546 +map ttt_minecraft_b5"
