Supermarket Belongs to the Community

Supermarket belongs to the community. While Chef has the responsibility to keep it running and be stewards of its functionality, what it does and how it works is driven by the community. The chef/supermarket repository will continue to be where development of the Supermarket application takes place. Come be part of shaping the direction of Supermarket by opening issues and pull requests or by joining us on the Chef Mailing List.

The service recipe enables the runit service for minecraft.

Attributes

Default

  • minecraft['user']

    • The user the minecraft server runs under, default mcserver
  • minecraft['group']

    • The group the minecraft server runs under, default mcserver
  • minecraft['install_dir']

    • The default location minecraft is installed to, default /srv/minecraft
  • minecraft['install_type']

    • Supports 'vanilla' and 'bukkit', default 'vanilla'
  • minecraft['url']

    • The url to fetch minecarft releases from, default https://s3.amazonaws.com/Minecraft.Download/versions
  • minecraft['checksum']

    • The sha256 checksum of minecraft_server.jar
  • minecraft['xms']

    • The minimum ammount of ram java allow minecraft to consume, defaults to %40 of your total memory.
  • minecraft['xmx']

    • The maximum ammount of ram java allow minecraft to consume, defaults to %60 of your total memory.
  • minecraft['java-options']

    • You can use this to pass additional options to java, default blank
  • minecraft['init_style']

    • Currently only runit is support. default runit
  • minecraft['banned-ips']

    • An array of ips you would like banned, default blank

    • An array of players you would like banned, default blank
  • minecraft['white-list]

    • An array of users you would like to white-list, default blank
  • minecraft['ops']

    • An array of admins, default blank
  • minecraft['accept_eula']

    • Boolean whether to accept the EULA, required for Minecraft 1.7.10 (a Reddit thread with more information is here). The default is false. It must be set to true (meaning you are consciously acknowledging and accepting the agreement) for the server to start.

Properties

You can can customize any of the settings from server.properties. They are kept up to date with upstream and you can read about each setting in more
detail here

Known issues

Minecraft internally regenerates all of its configuration files every startup. The order of server.properties sometimes changes, timestamps are
and headers are injected into all the configuration files.

This in turn causes chef to notice configuration files have been changed and will automatically restart the server again to pick up those changes. This may
cause your server to restart frequently, without notice.

This leaves you with two work arounds for now.

  1. Only run chef-client once a day or manually as you need to.
  2. Set minecraft['autorestart'] = false and restart minecraft manually when you make configuration changes.

I am hoping I can get this changed upstream. I will attempt to come up with a better work around in the mean time.
