This repository contains the necessary files to set up and run Ewan's Minecraft Server using Docker Compose. The server is configured with PaperMC, several Spigot resources, and a RealIP plugin. It also includes a companion script to set up dynamic DNS using DuckDNS.

This setup is primarily intended for personal use or small groups of friends.

This project includes several utility scripts located in the scripts/ directory. These scripts are designed to help you manage your Minecraft server.

1. setup_master.sh: This is the main setup script. Run it first to ensure all prerequisites are met and to configure your server. This script will also offer to set up a convenient alias for the server status script.

   ./scripts/setup_master.sh

2. server_status_mac.sh / server_status_linux.sh: These scripts are OS-specific and allow you to start, stop, and check the status of your Minecraft server. If you allowed setup_master.sh to create the alias, you can use mcserver followed by the command.

   • **Using the mcserver alias (recommended after running setup_master.sh):

     • Start the server:

       mcserver start

     • Stop the server:

       mcserver stop

     • Check server status:

       mcserver status

   • **Directly running the scripts (if alias is not set up or preferred):

     • Start the server:

       ./scripts/server_status_mac.sh start   # For macOS
       ./scripts/server_status_linux.sh start # For Linux

     • Stop the server:

       ./scripts/server_status_mac.sh stop    # For macOS
       ./scripts/server_status_linux.sh stop  # For Linux

     • Check server status:

        ./scripts/server_status_mac.sh status   # For macOS
        ./scripts/server_status_linux.sh status # For Linux
