docker-languagetool VS docker-minecraft-server

LanguageTool itself is open source (basic features). I'm running it in a Docker container.

For developers who already have Docker running on their machine. I can strongly recommend running it locally with e.g. Docker Compose.

Safes effort with maintaining an installation and keeping the background process running. Plus, it also works when network connectivity drops.

Following, you can see my personal docker-compose.yml, which you can use as a reference. For a more detailed description, you can look at the image description erikvl87/languagetool.

I was already used to wiggly lines in my favorite IDE IntelliJ and really missed the spell and grammar check capabilities in other editors especially when writing something in the browser. A colleague told me that IntelliJ is using LanguageTool since I'm pretty satisfied with the analysis inside it. Therefore, I looked around on GitHub for a way of hosting my own LanguageTool server. I came across this repository and decided to give it a go and run it on my Linux server.

It's great, I've been running the self-hosted version for a few months now. I run it using a container[0] on a $10/mo Digital Ocean VPS using Dokku[1]. The main downside is that it's a bit of a memory hog, possible because it's written in Java? Otherwise, I haven't had to mess with it after the initial set up. I like that I'm not sending everything I write to another 3rd party service I don't control.

As for the plugin, it definitely catches more issues than the stock browser spellchecks. The main issue I have with it (maybe someone can point me in the right direction) is that it always tries to autodetect the language. This is fine for longer texts, but often fails on shorter strings like headlines. This leaves my words highlighted red because it thinks I'm writing bad German, or Swedish (which is fair). I haven't been able to figure out how to force it to only use US English.

The entire proof reading engine can be run either through their Java server or in a docker image. Java Docker Another Docker Repo

I have been using this docker version without any issues: https://github.com/Erikvl87/docker-languagetool

Looks nice! I have a comprehensive docker compose file with itzg’s image [0] repeated a dozen times.

This is just from a quick search: https://github.com/itzg/docker-minecraft-server

I'd like something like this that works with the itzg docker image. I usually have 2-3 servers up and running at any given time for me and my kids to play on. Different modpacks, haven't done anything fancy to manage them except portainer.

I have a nephew who loves minecraft (my fault, I introduced it to him). He plays it on PS4 - which I don't have - and he would like to play it together with me. I live a few thousand kilometers away, so I thought I'd host a server he can join to.I decided to host the server via docker, using itgz's repo. The server is unauthenticated and is exposed to the internet, I can join to it using my java instance.

I think that a better option would be to use https://github.com/itzg/docker-minecraft-server and then use a networking solution like tailscale or equivalent.

using itzg/docker-minecraft-server to host a curseforge modded server that's running all the mods 8 mod pack, though I might look into pterodactyl for future use!

I'm aware of itzg/docker-minecraft-server: Docker image that provides a Minecraft Server that will automatically download selected version at startup (github.com) which makes things pretty easy, but getting any modpack to work still requires quite a bit of fiddling with environment variables (mods to exclude on the server, java version, mc version, enabling command block, etc). Is there something easier, which doesn't require me to search through issues to find working configurations?

Also, as somebody already mentioned, you could run server in a Docker container. I quickly found this: https://hub.docker.com/r/itzg/minecraft-server. You could look into it. For this you will have to setup Docker, but it should be pretty easy (install and add user to group, check Arch wiki). Docker then creates a small "VM" (without kernel) in which Java is installed to run the server itself.

Server is running latest version of PaperMC using the itzg/docker-minecraft-server image on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. Ports 8123 and 25565 of the container are exposed. Dynmap with LiveAtlas is installed in the server's /plugins/ directory and can be accessed through [server IP]:8123.
