# mcserver
|
|
dead simple wrapper script to manage multiple minecraft server instances in
|
|
tmux, in a way that makes it extremely easy to use with systemd.
|
|
|
|
## instructions
|
|
1. install systemd unit in /etc/systemd/system, change `User` option to preferred user
|
|
- on Arch Linux, the best option is to build and install the PKGBUILD and
|
|
manually change the user with `systemctl edit mcserver@.service`
|
|
3. create minecraft server instances in `~/.local/share/mcserver/instances`
|
|
- you can also symlink server directories from elsewhere on the system
|
|
- use `instance/` as a starting point. you need, at minimum, a `start.sh`
|
|
startup script that executes the server jar, the server jar itself and a
|
|
`vars` file
|
|
4. `systemctl enable --now mcserver@instancename`
|
|
|
|
## other info
|
|
there's a few other random things in the provided `instance` folder:
|
|
- a `start.sh` which should work for most use cases
|
|
- a `merge.sh` script to merge some of my default configs
|
|
- a starting point for the `vars` file
|
|
- an *incomplete* `update_paper.py` script that i was working on a few years
|
|
ago but never finished
|
|
- a completed eula.txt (i have no idea the legality of sharing a pre-completed
|
|
eula, nor do i care)
|
|
- a `start.bat` polyglot so that the server can also be used on windows
|
|
- this was mainly for server auto restart via plugins, but this is no
|
|
longer needed with systemd
