Required environment variables

• AWS_KEY - Your AWS Access Key ID
• AWS_SECRET - Your AWS Secret Access Key
• MC_EC2_INSTANCE_ID - Instance ID of the EC2 instance which is running Minecraft
• MCPANEL_AUTH_PASSWORD - Password to allow access to the web interface

Using the web interface

Once you have MCPanel running on Heroku, point your browser to the URL (e.g. mymcpanel.heroku.com) and it will prompt you to log in. The password is what you specified as the MCPANEL_AUTH_PASSWORD environment variable. Currently the interface is very sparse, only providing the current status of the EC2 instance and, if it is "stopped", a button to start the instance. In fact, at this point there are no Minecraft-specific features and could be used for any generic EC2 instance.
