mcserver 0.3.6

Why?

• Flexibility: this tool does not rely on another multiplexer to work, as it is built in. Therefore, you can run your minecraft server seamlessly on a dedicated multiplexer.
• Utility: currently, this tool is able to start your minecraft servers for you with configurable java arguments and allows you to connect to them at any time by simply running mcserver.

Installation

If you have the rust toolchain installed

cargo install mcserver

Or if you don't want to wait

cargo binstall mcserver

Nix

Alternatively, you can install it with nix. For example, if you use NixOS:

In your flake inputs, add:

{
    mcserver = {
      url = "github:Neovimproved/mcserver";
      inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
    };
}

In a system module:

environment.systemPackages = [
    mcserver.packages.${pkgs.stdenv.hostPlatform.system}.default
]

Configuration

Create a file config.kdl in a configuration directory (e.g. $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/mcserver/ or just ~/.config/mcserver/ which is probably the same). KDL is a relatively new configuration language that solves many of the pitfalls that come with things like json and yaml.

Roadmap

• Server creation
• Server deletion
