MCSLI: Minecraft Server Linux Installer

Use this to easily install Java and a Minecraft server on a Linux server.

wget https://github.com/silvertriclops/MCSLI/archive/master.zip
unzip master.zip
sudo chmod +x install.sh
sudo chmod +x start.sh
./install.sh # tells the computer where Java is so it knows how to start Minecraft
./start.sh # starts the Minecraft server. You may want to run this command inside screen.

Currently this only works on Debian/Ubuntu. If you want to use it on Fedora/SUSE, you'll need to make some changes to install.sh.

To do:

• Fedora/SUSE support
• Option to install Java to /opt/oracle/java/jre (or a specified directory)
• Option to install the Minecraft server to /opt/mcserver (or a specified directory)
• Option to download the latest version of Java and the Minecraft server before installation
• Change a few permissions
• Make it a bit (okay, a lot) more user friendly
