Minecraft server and utilities
Project description
Bravo is a elegant, speedy, and extensible implementation of the Minecraft Alpha/Beta/”Modern” protocol. Only the server side is implemented. Bravo also has a few tools useful for examining the wire protocols and disk formats in Minecraft.

Installing
Bravo currently requires Python 2.6 or any newer Python 2.x. It is known to work on CPython and PyPy.
Bravo ships with a standard setup.py. You will need setuptools/distribute, but most distributions already provide it for you. Bravo depends on the following external libraries from PyPI:
construct, version 2.03 or later
Twisted, version 11.0 or later
If installing modular Twisted, Twisted Conch is required.
For IRC support, Twisted Words is required; it is usually called python-twisted-words or twisted-words in package managers.
For web service support, Twisted Web must be installed; it is generally called python-twisted-web or twisted-web.
Windows
No installation required, a standalone executable is available at:
http://bravoserver.org/downloads.html
Debian & Ubuntu
Debian and its derivatives, like Ubuntu, have Twisted in their package managers.
$ sudo aptitude install python-twisted
If you are tight on space, you can install only part of Twisted.
$ sudo aptitude install python-twisted-core python-twisted-bin python-twisted-conch
A Note about Ubuntu
If you are using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, you will need a more recent Twisted than Ubuntu provides. There is a PPA at http://launchpad.net/~twisted-dev/+archive/ppa which provides recent versions of all Twisted packages.
Fedora
Twisted can be installed from the standard Fedora repository.
$ sudo yum install python-twisted python-twisted-conch
Gentoo
Gentoo does carry a Construct new enough for Bravo, but it does have to be unmasked.
# emerge twisted twisted-conch
LFS/Virtualenv/Standalone
If, for some reason, you are installing to a very raw or unmanaged place, and you want to ensure that everything is built from the latest source available on PyPI, we highly recommend pip for installing Bravo, since it handles all dependencies for you.
$ pip install Bravo
Bravo can also optionally use Ampoule to offload some of its inner calculations to a separate process, improving server response times. Ampoule will be automatically detected and is completely optional.
$ pip install ampoule
Running
Bravo includes a twistd plugin, so it’s quite easy to run. Just copy bravo.ini.example to bravo.ini, and put it in one of these locations:
/etc/bravo/
~/.bravo/
Your working directory
And then run the Twisted plugin:
$ twistd -n bravo
Contributing
Contributing is easy! Just send me your code. Diffs are appreciated, in git format; Github pull requests are excellent.
Things to consider:
I will be rather merciless about your code during review, especially if it adds lots of new features.
Some things are better off outside of the main tree, especially if they are moving very fast compared to Bravo itself.
Unit tests are necessary for new code, especially feature-laden code. If your code is absolutely not testable, it’s not really going to be very fun to maintain. See the above point.
Bravo is MIT/X11. Your contributions will be under that same license. If this isn’t acceptable, then your code cannot be merged. This is really the only hard condition.
FAQ
The FAQ moved to the docs; see docs/faq.rst, or more usefully, http://bravo.readthedocs.org/en/latest/faq.html for an HTML version.
