Install and Run the Spigot Server
To download and install the latest Java, please use openJDK.
sudo apt install openjdk-8-jdk
Now that we have Java installed, we're set to get Spigot built and running.
wget -O BuildTools.jar https://hub.spigotmc.org/jenkins/job/BuildTools/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/target/BuildTools.jar
To ensure there are no issues, we need to issue the following command for Git:
git config --global --unset core.autocrif
Now to run BuildTools:
java -jar BuildTools.jar --rev latest
This will generate the .jar files we need using the latest version.
Note: It is possible this will fail due to permissions. Do NOT use sudo to resolve this issue. Create a new user for minecraft and make sure that user has the correct permissions for the directory in which you want to run BuildTools.
Once BuildTools has completed, you'll find two jars in the directory that you ran BuildTools:
- spigot-x.x.jar
- craftbukkit-x.x.jar
For our purposes, we only need the spigot-x.x.jar file.
Note: In the future, we will use the API jar.
java -jar spigot-x.x.jar
