Overview

The auto-mcs scripting API (amscript) is available to quickly create universal plugins for your auto-mcs servers. It functions primarily as an asynchronous wrapper which fires events from what happens in-game and uses standard Python 3.9 syntax. Because of this mechanic, a single script will work with every Vanilla, CraftBukkit (and derivatives), Forge, and Fabric server regardless of the game version. This functionality can be accessed via the amscript button in the Server Manager. Create a new script to open the built-in IDE and get started!

To see more examples of the library in action, visit our repository of amscripts to see how the objects and events work together!

Note: All of these scripts are available to download and edit directly inside the amscript manager

Objects

Note: All object attributes are read-only, but can be manipulated with their methods

ServerScriptObject

Contains the server's running configuration from the server.properties, to the list of connected players.

Accessed via the global variable server

Methods:

server.stop()

Immediately stops the server.

server.restart()

Immediately stops and restarts the server.

server.log(message, log_type)

Sends a custom log event to the console. This output is displayed only while the server is running, and is not saved to latest.log.

server.log_success(), server.log_warning(), and server.log_error() methods can also be used, and only require the message parameter.

Accepted parameters:

Parameter	Description
`message*`	`str` of log content
`log_type`	`str` can be `'info'`, `'success'`, `'warning'` or `'error'`. Defaults to `'info'`

server.execute(command)

Executes any Minecraft command in the server console.

Note: Some commands are version dependent and you may need to implement a switch to execute different commands for different versions.

Accepted parameters:

Parameter	Description
`command*`	`str`, any Minecraft command

server.version_check(comparator, version)

Compares server version to version with the comparator, returns bool.

Accepted parameters:

Parameter	Description
`comparator*`	`str`, can be `'='`, `'<'`, `'<='`, `'>'`, or `'>='`
`version*`	`str`, any Minecraft version, i.e. `'1.17.1'`

server.get_player(selector)

Returns PlayerScriptObject on match, else None. Only returns the first match.

Accepted parameters:

Parameter	Description
`selector*`	`str` of username, or a valid Minecraft selector that returns a single value (like @p, @s, @r). Only players will be matched
`reverse`	`bool` selects last match on `True`. Defaults to `False`

Attributes:

Note: All attributes are read-only, and thus will not change the server data when modified

server.name

str, server's current filename

server.version

str, Minecraft version of the server, i.e. '1.16.3'

server.build

str, Only applicable for Paper/Forge, contains build number. Else will be None

The current format is {'username': 'uuid'}

server.persistent

dict, persistent variable storage for saving information between server restarts, or script reloads
Assigning or updating a key in the server.persistent dictionary will automatically save it, and can be accessed via the same key persistently until it is changed again, or deleted. Data will only be saved for the server referenced in the object.

Warning: persistent data is only saved properly when the server shuts down gracefully, if the computer crashes or the server process is terminated forcefully, the persistent data will likely revert to previous values

server.output

list, contains a formatted list of dictionaries organizing the items visible in the auto-mcs console from oldest to newest (limit of 850)

Accessed by an applicable event, or by the server.get_player() method

Methods:

player.set_permission(permission, enabled)

Sets a custom permission for @player.on_alias events.

The player.check_permission() method can also be used with only the permission argument to return a bool if the player has the specified permission. Note that the server console has all custom permissions.

Attributes:

Note: All attributes are read-only, and thus will not change playerdata when modified

Note: Versions prior to 1.13 load NBT from playerdata.dat, which is only updated every couple of minutes or so. Any version between 1.8-1.13, though, will have updated position data. 1.13 and later retrieves all of the most recent NBT data.

Assigning or updating a key in the player.persistent dictionary will automatically save it, and can be accessed via the same key persistently until it is changed again, or deleted. Data will be saved only for the player referenced by the object, and only for the server. Data will not persist between different servers.

Warning: persistent data is only saved properly when the server shuts down gracefully, if the computer crashes or the server process is terminated forcefully, the persistent data will likely revert to previous values

AddonManager

Contains the server's add-on configuration. Manages both plugins and mods depending on the server distribution.

    self.addon_version <str>

    # Whether or not the add-on is enabled in auto-mcs
    self.enabled <bool>

For all functionality relating to data stored on the internet, add-ons are abstracted as an AddonWebObject. The attributes are as follows:

    self.addon_object_type = "web"

    # The name defined on the internet
    self.name <str>

    # Type of add-on: 'forge', 'fabric', or 'bukkit'

    server.execute(f'/say Goodbye, {player.name}!')

@player.on_message

Fired upon player sending a message in the chat, excluding commands.

Accepted parameters:

Parameter	Description
`player*`	PlayerScriptObject sent at execution
`message*`	`str` of the message
`delay`	`int` or `float`, waits a specified amount of time in seconds before running

@player.on_message(player, message):
    if "can i have op" in message.lower():
        acl.ban_player(player)

@player.on_death

Fired upon player dying to the environment or another player.

Accepted parameters:

Parameter	Description
`player*`	PlayerScriptObject sent at execution of the victim
`enemy*`	PlayerScriptObject sent at execution of the attacker (`None` if player was killed by the environment)
`message*`	`str` of the message
`delay`	`int` or `float`, waits a specified amount of time in seconds before running

@player.on_death(player, enemy, message):
    if enemy:
        enemy.log(f"/say Did you know: murder is a crime {enemy}?")
        acl.ban_player(enemy)
    else:
        player.log(f"You should really be more careful {player}!")

@player.on_alias

Used for registering custom commands and augmenting existing ones.

Note: Commands will start with ! therefore making them visible when executed by a player from the in-game chat, though the feedback is hidden when using the server.log() and player.log() methods. They are completely hidden if executed from the server console.

Accepted parameters:

Parameter	Description
`player*`	PlayerScriptObject sent at execution
`command*`	`str` to specify the command verb
`arguments`	`dict` specifying requirement for execution `{'arg1': True}` where `True` denotes a required argument. Only the last argument can be optional
`permission`	`str`, used to restrict execution to privileged users. Can be `'anyone'`, `'op'`, `'server'`, or a custom player permission. Defaults to `'anyone'`
`description`	`str` for `!help` menu. Command will be shown to users which meet the minimum permission level
`hidden`	`bool`, defaults to `False`. Hides command from all users (they can still be executed) and disables the wrapper functionality described below. Useful for augmenting existing commands

@player.on_alias(player, command='test', arguments={'arg1': True, 'arg2': False}, permission='op'):
    server.log(f'{player.name} executed {command} with the following arguments: {arguments}')

Note: Every alias automatically validates syntax and checks the player's permission level before execution

Following the above example when a player with the anyone privilege executes !test foo bar:

amscript will determine that the player doesn't meet the minimum permission and will fail
Permission tree is server > op > anyone

Following the above example when a player with the op or server privilege executes !test foo bar:

arguments will be converted to {'arg1': 'foo', 'arg2': 'bar'} after execution, and can be acccessed in the function as such
Calling arguments['arg1'] will return the value of 'foo'
