rasPberrY MinT

formerly Raspberry Jam Mod for Minetest

Implements most of Raspberry PI Minecraft API in Minetest.

Original project by Alexander Pruss

Intro

This fork was started to add Linux servers support.

Setup

Copy or link the raspberrymint dir into your minetest/mods dir, or into your game mods dir.

If you have secure.enable_security = true in minetest.conf (recommended), then make sure you have raspberrymint listed under secure.trusted_mods. Raspberry Mint cannot be rewritten without needing to be trusted, because of the following essential features:

• loading tcp/ip socket dynamic library
• executing and terminating python interpreter with /py command.

minetest.conf fragment example:

secure.enable_security = true
secure.trusted_mods = raspberrymint

Troubleshooting

You could need to add a row on your world's world.mt file:

load_mod_raspberrymint = true

Running python scripts on Minetest

Connect to your Minetest server or run a local server and authenticate yourself using login and password. Be sure to have jammer permissions: \grantme jammer.

Now try with: \py cube. If it works try with other script in mcpipy directory, omit the .py extension. Some scripts needs additional parameters.

Real work/real glory

Lua socket libraries

About lua-socket

lua-socket libraries use some binary files core.dll / core.so. I add the core.so file from Raspbian official package that works on my Raspberry Pi (ARM) server. I add the cx64.so file (former core.so) from Ubuntu official package that works on my x86_64 workstation.

Why did you fork?

Raspberry Jam Mod runs on Windows and use python 2.x. Last project activity was 2 year old.

Why did you rename the project?

Raspberry Jam Mod was on stand by from so many years that I needed to adapt the code to Minetest's new security policy, adding missing mod setup files (like mod.conf file) and so on. No radical rewriting was done, but so many small changes are diffuses everywhere. A full Linux support was my primary target, Windows support is not granted. So I prefer to change mod's name because I'm not able to grant a regression-proof code.

What's new

Raspberry Mint's Lua code is tested on Minetest 5.5.0-dev. Raspberry Mint's Python code is now working on Python 3.x, all tests and examples (but one) actually run on Linux, I hope them works good on Windows yet.

Added jammer permissions.

Weak security scripts

There are two example's scripts that could run arbitrary python's code. These scripts are renamed

• console.py.keepsafe
• turtleconsole.py.keepsafe

you need to remove .keepsafe extension to make them work. Do it on a security and singleplayer environment only.

NeuroSky script

I have no Neuro Sky devices on my own. So neurosky.py is not tested.

Roadmap

• Make this module working in a multiplayer environment.
• Add a usage help to all modules need it.
• Add new sample scripts.
• Add new samples scripts using Turing machine's library.
• Tune up existing code.
