# py-minecraft

A Python library for communicating with Minecraft clients and servers.

## Trying it out

### Minecraft wrapper

This project is an example of how to write a Minecraft wrapper. A wrapper sits

on top of the server, taking all client requests and forwarding them to the

server. The benefit of using a wrapper is that you get full control of

everything sent back and forth between the clients and the server. This can be

used for access control (for example: don't allow unknown users to place

blocks) or to allow new functionality (warping to locations, colored chat

messages, etc.)

Run this in the top directory to start the wrapper:

    python -m example.wrapper.main

This will start a wrapper on port 25564 that you can connect to by entering

`localhost:25564` as the server after selecting "Multiplayer" in the client.

The wrapper expects a Minecraft server to already be running locally on port

25565.

### Minecraft server

A very simple (read: bad, slow, incomplete) implementation of a server. This is

in no way meant to actually be used, it's more a proof of concept and a test to

make sure all packet implementations work fine.

Currently the server doesn't support interaction between players other than

chatting.

Run this in the top directory to start the server:

    python -m example.server.main
