MCInstaller 🛠️

A CLI tool (currently only for Linux, but later maybe with Windows support) for easy installation of minecraft servers.

Using ServerJars .NET API.

Currently avaliable server types

Vanilla
Forge
Paper

Installation

1. Install .NET Core;
2. Clone repository:

$ git clone https://github.com/te9c/mcinstaller.git

3. Build:

$ cd mcinstaller
$ dotnet build

4. Run with

$ dotnet run --project MCInstaller.Console -- <arguments>

Or publish binary and run it

$ dotnet publish -o <output folder>
$ cd <output folder>
$ ./mcinstaller <arguments>

Usage

General use:

$ mcinstaller --minecraft-version <version> --type <Vanilla, Forge, Paper> <output folder>

MCInstaller requires at least two arguments to be set: --minecraft-version (-m) and output path (should be empty directory). If --type option not set it defaults to vanilla. The following command installs vanilla 1.12.2 minecraft server in current folder:

$ mcinstaller --minecraft-version 1.12.2 .
