Package linux dedicated server

[boskiv]

How to build and package a linux dedicated server with ue4?
Is there some argument to ue4 package command or I need to construct all with ue4 uat?

I have prepared a docker container with ue4-docker with Linux engine compiled inside. And run command ue4 inside it.

The ue4 package command allows you to specify additional arguments to UAT, so you can simply add the appropriate flags at the end of the command:

ue4 package Shipping -server -noclient

Starting in ue4cli version 0.0.33, the -serverplatform=<PLATFORM> argument will be automatically generated for you. In older versions of ue4cli you will need to specify this yourself.

It's worth noting that Installed Builds of the Unreal Engine do not currently include support for dedicated server targets by default, so you will not be able to use an unmodified version of the ue4-minimal or ue4-full container images to package a dedicated server. You will either need to add ue4cli to an image based on the ue4-engine image or modify the BuildGraph XML data to include server target support in the Installed Build produced by the ue4-minimal image.
