Setup

This will walk you through installing HuskClaims on either your Spigot server, or proxied network of Spigot servers.

Requirements

  • A Spigot-based Minecraft server (1.17.1 or higher, Java 17+)
  • (For proxy network support) A proxy server (Velocity, BungeeCord) and MySQL (v8.0+)/MariaDB database
  • (For optional redis support) A Redis database (v5.0+)

Single-server Setup Instructions

These instructions are for simply installing HuskClaims on one Spigot/Paper server.

1. Install the jar

  • Place the plugin jar file in the /plugins/ directory of your Spigot server.

2. Restart the server and configure

  • Start, then stop your server to let HuskClaims generate the config file.
  • You can now edit the config files to your liking.

3. Turn on your server

  • Start your server again and enjoy HuskClaims!

Multi-server Setup Instructions

These instructions are for installing HuskClaims on multiple Spigot servers and having them network together. A MySQL database (v8.0+) is required.

1. Install the jar

  • Place the plugin jar file in the /plugins/ directory of each Spigot server.
  • You don't need to install HuskClaims as a proxy plugin.

2. Restart the server and configure

  • Start, then stop every server to let HuskClaims generate the config file.
  • Advanced users: If you'd prefer, you can just create one config.yml file and create symbolic links in each /plugins/HuskClaims/ folder to it to make updating it easier.

3. Configure servers to use cross-server mode

  • Navigate to the HuskClaims general config file on each server (~/plugins/HuskClaims/config.yml)
  • Under database, set type to MYSQL
  • Under mysql/credentials, enter the credentials of your MySQL database server.
  • Scroll down and look for the cross_server section. Set enabled to true.
  • You can additionally configure a Redis server to use for network messaging, if you prefer (set the broker_type to REDIS if you do this).
  • Save your config files. Make sure you've updated the files on every server.

4. Restart servers and set server.yml values

  • Restart each server again. A server.yml file should generate inside (~/plugins/HuskClaims/)
  • Set the name of the server in this file to the ID of this server as defined in the config of your proxy (e.g. if this is the "hub" server you access with /server hub, put "hub" here)

5. Restart your servers one last time

  • Provided your MySQL database credentials were correct, your network should now be setup to use HuskClaims!
  • You can delete the HuskClaimsData.db SQLite flat file that was generated, if you would like.
