Minecraft server
If you want to run multiple Minecraft servers in docker then you have a few options like bungee cord, or waterfall, but I like itzg/mc-router which works kind of like nginx where it gets port 25565 then routes to different backends based on the subdomain

I'm considering building a minecraft server for me and my friend, is this video any good? Do you guys have any other advice?
Love itzg's minecraft server image, especially the auto-pause feature when noone is online (after a customizable timeout). I also run mc-router to not have to bother with SRV records.

External traefik minecraft server config.yml help
I spent a couple weeks fighting with Traefik and a Minecraft server in docker. I kept running into issues. The problem is you need to use tls if your setting the host rule to anything other then Host(“*”). It’s a limitation with how traefik does tcp routes. The kicker is Minecraft doesn’t support or use tls. I could not for the life of me get it to work. Eventually I looked into an alternative. It landed me on infrared it allows you to do some really interesting stuff. It’s sadly another proxy you’ll have to manage but it gets the job done really well. QuibTech has a good article here and I did a write up here.
