Ascii Bukkit Menu Plugin für Minecraft

Ascii Bukkit Menu

What is it?

Ascii Bukkit Menu is a Bukkit server manager. Written with bash, designed to be simple and robust. Should work out of the box on most distros. Specificly designed to run on a headless server via a ssh session.

Features:

• Uses screen to keep server session running in background, can reconnect at anytime.

• Start/Stop/Restart commands.

• Send commands directly to bukkit server.

• Automatically update Bukkit server to latest recommended.

• Bukkit server log rotation. Rotates server.log on each start, keeps last 20 compressed.

• If using Ramdisks, will automatically copy worlds between ramdisk and localdisk. Then runs an md5sum to verify consistency of the data.
• Start and Stop server on boot using non-interactive mode.

./abm --start ./abm --stop
