This file serves as a way to explicitly give credit to projects which made mcproto possible.
Note that as with any other project, if there was some code that was directly utilized from these projects, it will be
mentioned in LICENSE-THIRD-PARTY.txt, not in here. This file isn't meant to serve as a place to disclose used code
and it's licenses, but rather to give proper credit where it is due, and to shout out a few amazing projects that
allowed mcproto to exist in the first place.
- wiki.vg (https://wiki.vg): An absolutely amazing community driven wiki that documents how the minecraft protocol is structured and the changes that occur between the protocol versions.
- PyMine-Net: The project that was the main inspiration to this project, being a separation of the minecraft networking tooling used in PyMine-Server, which is an attempt at implementing a fully working minecraft server purely in python. However, this project is no longer maintained, and so mcproto was created to be it's replacement.
- Mcstatus: A library that allows for easy fetching of status/query data from minecraft servers, including parsers and structures that meaningfully represent the obtained data, but also the logic on how it's actually obtained, some of which this project took heavy inspiration from.
- pyCraft: A long abandoned project similar to mcproto, which served as an inspiration for various functionalities in the library.
- quarry: A library providing support for basic interactions with the minecraft protocol, though only up to packet reading. Implementation for reading data from specific packets is not included.
To all of these projects, they deserve a massive thank you, for keeping their code/information open-sourced and available as a source of information, and inspiration freely to anyone.
