Using the CLI

Running the PluginUpdater CLI is as simple as downloading the CLI jar and then running java -jar PluginUpdater-cli-4.3.0.jar, the directory that you run this in should be the root directory, it should contain a plugins folder.

All usual commands that are available in the plugin version should also work in the CLI, with the addition of a simple stop command which allows you to easily terminate the task.

System Properties

There are some properties that affect the way in which the CLI should be ran

  • platform - The platform, this affects the way in which jar files will be interpreted (default: paper)
  • server-version - The server version you are targeting, this is platform specific, for paper this should be the Minecraft version and for Velocity it should be the velocity version.

Using system properties is simple, you can use them when running the jar like so:

java -Dplatform=velocity -Dserver-version=4.1.0 -jar PluginUpdater-cli-4.3.0.jar
