ServerTap is a REST API for Bukkit, Spigot, and PaperMC Minecraft servers. It allows for server admins to query and interact with their servers using simple REST semantics.
This plugin is under development and is not ready for real usage yet.
But if you're feeling brave, head over to https://github.com/phybros/servertap/releases to grab the latest and greatest plugin JAR.

Install this plugin by dropping the jar into the plugins/
directory on your
server.
Then, you can query the server using curl
or Postman, or anything that speaks
HTTP.
For example, query for information about the server itself:
$ curl http://localhost:4567/v1/server
{
"name": "Paper",
"motd": "This is my MOTD",
"version": "git-Paper-89 (MC: 1.15.2)",
"bukkitVersion": "1.15.2-R0.1-SNAPSHOT",
"health": {
"cpus": 4,
"uptime": 744,
"totalMemory": 2010644480,
"maxMemory": 2010644480,
"freeMemory": 1332389360
},
"bannedIps": [],
"bannedPlayers": [
{
"target": "phybros",
"source": "Server"
}
]
}
Or get a list of players that are currently online:
$ curl http://localhost:4567/v1/players
[
{
"uuid": "55f584e4-f095-48e0-bb8a-eb5c87ffe494",
"displayName": "phybros",
"address": "localhost",
"port": 58529,
"exhaustion": 3.5640976,
"exp": 0.45454547,
"whitelisted": false,
"banned": false,
"op": true
}
]
You need a few things to get started
- An IDE (e.g. IntelliJ)
- JDK 8
- Maven
Then, you can build the plugin jar
by using the mvn package
command.
