Spark Web API
A small plugin that will host a Web API for Spark.
This plugin is made for Paper. You are free to fork this on GitHub and port this to other mod loaders.
This README is a simplified version of the Project's GitHub README.
Installation
First, Install Spark to your Paper server. Even though Paper servers for Minecraft 1.21 and up has Spark built-in, a standalone plugin version is required for this plugin.
Then, Install Spark Web API. You generally would download the JAR with -all at the end of the file name.
When starting your server, Please remember to set the
paper.preferSparkPlugin system property to true
Here's an example on how to do so:
java -Dpaper.preferSparkPlugin=true -jar paper-1.21-129.jar
Configuration
When starting the server for the first time with the plugin, The plugin will generate a config file. The config file allows you to change the port of the server, which routes are enabled, and add additional headers to responses.
port: 3000
routes:
tps: true
mspt: true
sys_cpu: false
proc_cpu: false
gc: false
