Using the RCON sample bundle

The RCON sample bundle in samples/rcon-minecraft shows how to send a command to a Minecraft server.

Prerequisites

Configure the RCON sample bundle

  1. In NodeCG, create a new RCON service instance.

  2. Enter the host, port, and password of the RCON connection. This can be found in the server.properties file (rcon.port, rcon.password):

    {
        "host": "localhost",
        "port": 25575,
        "password:": "ThisIsAVeryGoodPassword"
    }
    

    After entering it, click save.

  3. Set the sample's (rcon-minecraft) dependency to be the newly created service instance (of type rcon).

  4. In the NodeCG console you will see a list with all online players. It will also send a /say command to the Minecraft server.
