Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

Description

This is an essential plugin suite for Spigot/Paper/Folia/Mohist servers, including more than 90 modules that provides countless features for servers of any scale! This plugin also includes several performance enhancements and fixes. From management to display,game features to security, these contents will improve your server from every aspect.

Possible Usages

All the features are independently and composable. you can customize its function by enable or disable modules, add or remove extension packs, or even make your own pack through sdk pack.

Goal and reason of this

We are not likely to focus on those massive contents or doing things to extreme on single function. What we are doing is to create a liquid that fills the unmodified details on the server. So please do not expect we will do something as a mod——at least not in primary packages. Starlight only provide a basic and usable implementation, so if you find dedicated plugin to replace part of function provided, just use them without doubts——They are 100% better.

Installation

1. Download the bundler pack from page.

2. install them.

3. reload.

4. Stuck on library download?

For better performance and smaller jars, starlight will use OTA mode to download all libraries needed.

You can change maven mirror if you got stuck on library loading in config.yml:

config:
  #...
  dependency:
    maven-repo: ALICLOUD
    # accept any maven repo URLS, or:
    #  - 'ALICLOUD' (AliCloud maven central)
    #  - 'HUAWEI' (Huawei maven repo)
    #  - 'TENCENT' (TencentCloud maven repo)
    #  - 'TSINGHUA' (Tsinghua University maven repository)
    #  - 'CENTRAL' (Maven Central repo, Capable for non-China users.)

Contents

Basic concepts

  • Module: The minimum unit of functions this artifact provides.
  • Package: The smallest group of modules, share value configurations and i18n files.

    A package or module can be enabled or disable by commands.
    A jar will contain multiple modules.

Click on each tabs and expand them to see what is included.

Compatibility

We STRONGLY recommend you to use paper based server to enable full features. it could work on other platform, but who knows what will happen? (since lazy GrassBlock2022 never test them)

Versions showed in versions page are just for placeholder. all versions can work in [1.13-1.20]

FAQ

What relationship does it have to that Starlight mod?

Basically, nope :D
Starlight mod has a totally different function from this artifact.It rewrites light engine and simply provide optimizes.

Why I can't see any changes after installing starlight-core.jar?

Man! What can I say? see Installation section :D

Why it is renamed?

This project is originally name quark-plugin. To avoid being collided with that mod——which everybody loves it, I decide to change its name.

But the reason is not only for this. This project actully starts from long long long long ago, from a small plugin. The most bad thing is that when I started this project, I actually have NO understandings to java.

So now, when this plugin is getting more appreciation, start off from the blank and refactor the WHOLE archtecture to ensure extandability is important.

What will happen since this project is a continuation?

Unfortunately, to wholly frick the architecture away, I HAVE to sacrifice A lot, especially, compatibility. from the following version, This project will enter alpha stages.The plugin will use a completely different namespace and ID.

As soon as the refactor done, the auto-migaration code will be added, to allow you to upgrade Player Data and module data from old plugin data folder, and the new starlight plugin can work with the old one together.

Help us test

Alpha stage goes with inconsistentcy, so it's now for you to offer help. Please submit any bugs or feature requests to github link above, thank you sooooo much.

Working with quark-plugin

The new starlight kernal now register things in a different namespace, but feature conflicts still exists. You have to manually disable modules that has duplicated feature with starlight in your older plugin.

Upgrading and migration

Unfortunately, since most of ids and values are changed, it's not possible to move or migrate legacy language or config file, so please re-configure them once it's ready.

After core version 25.3.10, we provide data migration. You could use command:

/starlight upgrade-data [category]

to migrate data u would like to in legacy quark-plugin.

Currently, we support waypoint data, music files and mute data. For any other request, leave it in issue.

Why I can't disable some module?

Some modules(mostly in starlight-core) provides basic features or relied by other systems. Enable them will not cost any resources.

Why I can't see some of the features after downloading this?

There are two possibilities.

1. Some features are not automatically enabled.

This is manually defined, since we won't expect them to load after we install the WHOLE bundler. For example, the log color patching module work fine on some server, but crash on others. It's hard to say why since it works like injecting, and there is no evidence points to platform api issue. To resolve this, after you KNOW what will happen, filter the correct module ID and enable it manually.

2. Some features require certain platform.

Bukkit-based server has multiple branches, and most of them are technically different. For example, Folia based server does NOT have scoreboard API(currently), and a MIXED server(combine forge/fabric with bukkit) has a horrible(not bad) class loading design. We just can't expect some features to work when our platform is missing needed API.
