Witchcraft - a Minecraft server, written in Bash

Requires busybox 1.35.0 or later (crashes on 1.34, for some reason), bash, gnu grep, gnu sed and nmap-ncat. Grep was actually only used once, so maybe I could make it work with the bb one?

How to use

To get the "plain" experience:

./launch.sh

If it doesn't work (tested only on Alpine Edge), go for the docker route:

docker build -t witchcraft .
docker run --rm -it -p25565:25565 witchcraft ./launch.sh

The above would launch the basic server without any plugins. You should check out the digmeout demo tho, it's kinda addictive:

./launch.sh demos/digmeout.sh

What works

• joining the game
• chat
• hooks (you can write your own.. plugins? check out demos/)
• breaking blocks, to some extent
• serializing and sending chunks
• sending effects
• possibly more

What does not

• multiple players (server tries to send the movement packets, but I haven't finished it)
• breaking blocks with tools (client acts as if there isn't a tool in your hand)
• capitalism (IRL; I wouldn't want to try implementing it here)
