Gryla McJar.py

A general-purpose utility for downloading and deobfuscating Minecraft JAR files. This tool handles fetching vanilla binaries, resolving mappings (Yarn, Mojang, Spigot, RetroMCP), and remapping JARs to named namespaces.

Features

  • Vanilla Downloads: Fetch client or server JARs from Mojang's Piston meta or OmniArchive.
  • Mapping Support:
    • Yarn: Automatic lookup for Fabric's Yarn mappings (Modern and Legacy).
    • Mojang: Official Mojang obfuscation maps.
    • Spigot: BuildData-based remapping for server JARs.
    • RetroMCP: Support for historical versions via MCPHackers.
  • Smart Caching: Avoids redundant downloads and remapping operations by storing artifacts in ~/.cache/gryla (or OS equivalent).

Prerequisites

  • Python 3.8+
  • Java JRE/JDK: Required for the remapping tools (Tiny Remapper, SpecialSource-2, etc.).
  • Git: Required for cloning Spigot BuildData.

Usage

1. Download a Vanilla JAR

Download a specific version without remapping. Use @omni@ prefix for OmniArchive versions.

mcjar get 1.20.1 client -o minecraft_1.20.1.jar
mcjar get @omni@b1.7.3 server

2. Remap a JAR

Download and remap a JAR to named mappings using a specified mapping provider.

Using Yarn (Default):

mcjar remap 1.20.1 client -m yarn

Using Mojang Mappings:

mcjar remap 1.19.2 server -m mojang -o server-mapped.jar

Using Spigot Mappings:

mcjar remap 1.12.2 server -m spigot

Using RetroMCP (for older versions):

mcjar remap b1.7.3 client -m retromcp

3. Cache Management

Clear the local cache directory to free up space or force fresh downloads.

mcjar clear_cache

Configuration

The storage directory can be overridden by setting the GRYLA_HOME environment variable. By default, it uses:

  • Linux: $XDG_CACHE_HOME/gryla or ~/.cache/gryla
  • macOS: ~/Library/Caches/gryla
  • Windows: %LOCALAPPDATA%\gryla\Cache
