kai5263499/restcraft-backend repository overview

⁠restcraft-backend

This project is the result of wanting a way to interact with my childrens' Minecraft world via a REST API. I plan to combine this project with another REST API that will handle authentication and parsing the Minecraft server log output into something more meaningful for an upstream UI.

⁠Docker

Run the container with: docker run -t -v /minecraft/widnercraft:/data -p 25598:25565 -p 10000:9999 -d --name widnercraft kai5263499/restcraft-backend

This assumes that /minecraft/widnercraft contains minecraft-server.jar

⁠REST API

To change the weather: curl -X POST --data "/time set day" localhost:10000/cmd --header "Content-Type:text/plain"

⁠mcserve.json

In case you want to run this locally, here are the configuration options for mcaserve.json

• server_directory - full path to the directory that you want to run minecraft from. This directory will accumulate player files and world data
• server_jar - the Minecraft server jar to use
• memory - how much memory in megabytes to allocate for Minecraft
• webPort - the port that the web interface listens on
• webHost - the host that the web interface binds to
