Running It Forever

Running it forever

The supervisor: craft-conductor run

craft-conductor run is a foreground supervisor, so run it under systemd (see examples/craft_conductor.service), tmux or screen. While it's running:

Command	What it does
craft-conductor update	ask the running daemon to check and apply updates right now
craft-conductor update --to 1.21.4	ask it to move to one specific version
craft-conductor cmd say hello	send a console command over RCON (enable RCON in server.properties)
craft-conductor status	installed versions, mods, anything skipped, failed attempts
craft-conductor stop	stop the server gracefully and exit the daemon
craft-conductor run --web	same, plus the web UI

When the server isn't running, craft-conductor update does the upgrade and a test boot itself.

Windows and macOS in the background

Craft Conductor runs until you press Quit in the control panel. To start it automatically, add craft-conductor-windows-x64.exe to Task Scheduler with the trigger At log on. On a Mac, add it to System Settings → General → Login Items.
