Command Reference

ue4-docker setup

Automatically configures the host system where possible.

Usage syntax:

ue4-docker setup

This command will automatically configure a Linux or Windows Server host system with the settings required in order to build and run containers produced by ue4-docker.

Under Linux:

  • If an active firewall is detected then a firewall rule will be created to allow Docker containers to communicate with the host system, which is required during the build of the ue4-source image.

Under Windows Server:

  • The Docker daemon will be configured to set the maximum image size for Windows containers to 400GB.
  • A Windows Firewall rule will be created to allow Docker containers to communicate with the host system, which is required during the build of the ue4-source image.
  • Under Windows Server Core version 1809 and newer, any required DLL files will be copied to the host system from the full Windows base image. Note that the full base image was only introduced in Windows Server version 1809, so this step will not be performed under older versions of Windows Server.

Under Windows 10 and macOS this command will print a message informing the user that automatic configuration is not supported under their platform and that they will need to configure the system manually.
