INSTALL

Installation Instructions

== Linux

You will need zlib and autotools installed to compile craftd.

First, download the latest libevent from http://monkey.org/~provos/libevent/.
Extract the archive and run the following commands inside the resulting folder:

./configure
make
make install
ldconfig

Note that users of sudo will probably need to wrap the last two commands with
sudo.

Second, do a similar routine with jansson, found at http://www.digip.org/jansson/.
You can omit the ldconfig part.

Next, change to your craftd directory. If you obtained the code from our git repo
and you have not done so, run autoreconf -i. This will create a configure script
for you.

Run the following commands to install the server:

./configure
make
make install

Now you can configure your server. Copy the file /usr/local/etc/craftd/craftd.conf.dist
to /usr/local/etc/craftd/craftd.conf and edit the resulting file. For more information on
configuring the server, see http://mc.kev009.com/Craftd:Configuration

Please note that unlike the official server, craftd will not generate a world if one is not
provided. You will need to put valid world data in the world directory specified in the
server configuration file until the mapgen is integrated.
