Roadmap

Usage

Without version specified, the version of the server will be guessed automatically, you can set a specific one using the version option. For example version:"1.8".

Echo Example

var mineflayer = require('mineflayer');
var bot = mineflayer.createBot({
  host: "localhost", // optional
  port: 25565,       // optional
  username: "[email protected]", // email and password are required only for
  password: "12345678",          // online-mode=true servers
  version: false                 // false corresponds to auto version detection (that's the default), put for example "1.8.8" if you need a specific version
});
bot.on('chat', function(username, message) {
  if (username === bot.username) return;
  bot.chat(message);
});
bot.on('error', err => console.log(err))

Debug

You can enable some protocol debugging output using DEBUG environment variable:

DEBUG="minecraft-protocol" node [...]

On windows :

set DEBUG=minecraft-protocol
node your_script.js

More Examples

Third Party Plugins

Mineflayer is pluggable; anyone can create a plugin that adds an even higher level API on top of Mineflayer.

Testing

Some setup is required after first cloning the project but after that is done it's very easy to run them.

Setup

In order to get all tests to run successfully you must first:

  1. create a new folder in which to store minecraft server jars
  2. set the MC_SERVER_JAR_DIR to this folder

Example:

  1. mkdir server_jars
  2. export MC_SERVER_JAR_DIR=/full/path/to/server_jars

Where the "/full/path/to/" is the fully qualified path name.

Testing everything

Simply run: npm test

Testing specific version

Run npm test -g <version>, where <version> is a minecraft version like 1.12, 1.15.2...

Testing specific test

Run npm test -g <test_name>, where <test_name> is a name of the test like bed, useChests, rayTrace...

Updating to a newer protocol version

  1. Wait for a new version of node-minecraft-protocol to be released which supports the new Minecraft version.
  2. npm install --save minecraft-protocol@latest
  3. Apply the protocol changes where necessary.
  4. Run the test suite. See Testing above.
