MaintenanceAddon

Using PlaceholderAPI placeholders with Maintenance

If you are running Maintenance on Bungee or Velocity, you can use the addon to be able to use maintenance placeholders on your Paper servers.

The addon sends all necessary information from the Velocity/Bungee to the Paper servers that need them. After that, the addon creates the placeholders on those backend servers and they can be used.

Installation

Step 0.1: Make sure the main Maintenance plugin is on your proxy (Velocity/Bungee), NOT on your backend (Paper) servers.
Step 0.2: Stop your proxy and backend servers you want placeholders on.
Step 1: Put the addon jar into the plugin folder of both your proxy and the backend servers.
Step 2: Start the proxy and backend servers again.
Step 3: Join and see if it worked with /papi parse --null %maintenance_status% (which should change after toggling maintenance globally using /maintenance <on/off>).

After the first start with the addon on the proxy, an addon.yml file will be created in the Maintenance plugin directory (on your proxy). In there, you can change the messages the placeholders should display.

Placeholders

Currently available are:

• %maintenance_status% to display the maintenance status of your proxy
• %maintenance_server_<server>% to display the maintenance status of a specific proxied server, where <server> should be replaced with the name of the server to check
