Environment Variables

# avoid using ids less than 10000 by default to prevent volume mapping issues with host uids
# note: if you provide different values, the entrypoint script will update the steam user uid/gid
UID=10000
GID=10001
# this image uses the tzdata, so providing a TZ env var is good enough to change the container timezone
TZ=UTC

Explanation

The ENTRYPOINT script utilizes su-exec to run steamcmd as the steam user with pid 1. Before dropping down to the steam user, the entrypoint script will update the steam user uid/gid if necessary.
