Dan's Essentials

Dan's Essentials

Description
Dan's Essentials is a Minecraft plugin that provides a collection of miscellaneous utility commands for server operators and players, including fly toggles, gamemode switching, broadcasting, muting, inventory management, warp signs, and more.

Installation

1. Download the jar from this page (the download button links to the stable release on GitHub), or run /dpm get dansessentials with Dan's Plugin Manager.
2. Place the jar in your server's plugins folder.
3. Restart the server.

Supported versions
Release 2.7.0 runs on Minecraft 1.19.4, 1.21.11, 26.2 and 26.3 (Spigot and its forks): it was started on a real server of each version, where it enabled cleanly, registered every command, stopped cleanly and started a second time on the data it wrote. Every release from now on is started on each version the plugin supports ( minecraft-versions.json in the repository) before it is published.

Release channels
This page mirrors the stable channel: the latest non-prerelease GitHub release. A dev pre-release built from every push to the default branch is available on GitHub for testing ( /dpm get --experimental). Details: Release channels.

Usage reporting
Usage reporting is on by default: when the plugin is enabled, and each time one of its commands is
used, it sends its name, its version and the command's name ( startup and command events) to
https://trace.danielstephenson.dev so it is known which plugins are actually in use. Nothing about
players, worlds, IPs, or anything typed after a command is sent. The plugin says on
every startup whether reporting is on. Each event also carries a random server ID (the server-id line in plugins/trace/config.yml) so
servers can be counted rather than events. It identifies no person, account or IP address; delete
the line to get a new one.

To turn it off:

• for this plugin: usage-reporting.enabled: false in plugins/DansEssentials/config.yml
• for every plugin on the server that reports this way: enabled: false in plugins/trace/config.yml

(created the first time such a plugin starts)

• for the whole process: the environment variable TRACE_USAGE_REPORTING=off or DO_NOT_TRACK=1
