A semi-functional minecraft server in Node.js

## Test server

* rom1504.fr (Port 25565) using [auto-squid](https://github.com/rom1504/auto-squid)

## Building / Running
Before running or building it is recommended that you configure the server in `config/settings.json`

    npm install
    node app.js

Or try our autoupdating flying-squid server [autonomous-squid](https://github.com/mhsjlw/autonomous-squid)

You can also install flying-squid globally with `sudo npm install -g flying-squid`
and then run it with `flying-squid` command.

## World generation

There are several modules than can be used to generate the world. The default one is called diamond-square

* [node-voxel-worldgen](https://github.com/mhsjlw/node-voxel-worldgen) a voxel world generator written in Rust, compatible with flying-squid and allows basic minecraft-like generation including caves.
* [diamond-square](https://github.com/PrismarineJS/diamond-square) a diamond square minecraft generation

To install a world generation, all you have to do is npm install it and then change the generation option in settings.json.

## Plugins

* [flying-squid-irc](https://github.com/rom1504/flying-squid-irc) a bridge between a irc chan and the minecraft server.
Currently used between our test server (rom1504.fr) and our gitter room (through the official gitter irc bridge)
* [flying-squid-schematic](https://github.com/rom1504/flying-squid-schematic) Flying-squid plugin providing /listSchemas and /loadSchema commands. 
You can add schema through a simple http api and then add them in your world by just calling /loadSchema in game.
Http api available in the test instance at [flying-squid.rom1504.fr](http://flying-squid.rom1504.fr)
* [flying-squid-modpe](https://github.com/PrismarineJS/flying-squid-modpe) load modpe plugins
* [flying-squid-essentials](https://github.com/DeudlyYT/Flying-Squid-Essentials) Plugin that in a future will be like Essentials of bukkit/spigot.
All the basic commands that a server should have
