Geyser and foodgate auto uploader

GeyserUpdater

An automatic updater plugin for GeyserMC / Floodgate. Supports Spigot (and forks like Paper), BungeeCord, and Velocity.

Features

• Fetches the latest stable versions of GeyserMC and Floodgate from the Jenkins/download API and overwrites the existing JARs in the plugins directory.
  
  
• Automatic Update Checks:
  
  • On server startup.
    
    
  • At a specified interval (e.g., every 12 hours).
    
    
  • When a player with a specific permission logs in (can be enabled/disabled).
    
• Manual Command: /geyserupdate (Permission: geyserupdater.admin).
  
  
• Configurable messages, update targets, check intervals, and restart commands.
  

Build

• Prerequisites: Java 17, Maven 3.8+
  
  
• Instructions:
  
  • Run mvn package in the directory where you cloned the repository.
    
    
  • Artifacts:
    
    • spigot/target/GeyserUpdater-Spigot-1.0.0.jar
      
      
    • bungee/target/GeyserUpdater-Bungee-1.0.0.jar
      
      
    • velocity/target/GeyserUpdater-Velocity-1.0.0.jar
      

Installation

• Place the appropriate JAR for your server platform into the plugins folder.
  
  
• Start the server to generate the config.yml file (it will be identical to the default config included in this README).
  
  
• The plugin automatically detects existing Geyser / Floodgate JARs by searching for files in the plugins directory that contain "geyser" or "floodgate" in their names.
  
  • If no existing JARs are found, it will create new ones with standard names (e.g., Geyser-Spigot.jar, floodgate-velocity.jar).

How it Works

• Download URLs:
  
  • Geyser: https://download.geysermc.org/v2/projects/geyser/versions/latest/builds/latest/downloads/{platform}
    
    
  • Floodgate: https://download.geysermc.org/v2/projects/floodgate/versions/latest/builds/latest/downloads/{platform}
    
    
  • {platform} is replaced with spigot, bungeecord, or velocity.
    
• The latest JAR is downloaded to a temporary file and its SHA-256 hash is compared with the existing JAR.
  
  • If the hashes are identical, it is considered "up to date," and the file is not replaced.
    
    
  • If they differ, the existing file is overwritten using an atomic replacement operation.
    
• A server or proxy restart is required after an update is applied.
  
  • To enable automatic restarts, set postUpdate.runRestartCommand to true and configure the restartCommand to match your server's environment.
    

Notes / Known Limitations

• If a download fails due to network issues or other errors, the existing plugin files will not be affected.
  
  
• The plugin cannot detect Geyser/Floodgate files if they have unusual names or are not located directly within the plugins folder (it only scans for *.jar files in the root of the plugins directory).
  
  
• The plugin does not display version numbers; it relies solely on hash comparison to determine if an update is available.
