Administrate your server right out of your pocket, manage your world weather, player bans, whitelisting, open inventories, teleport players and much more! Get started with LiveKit with ease and discover all the features we have to offer. This plugin is in active development with new features coming your way regularly! ### Getting started #### Server setup - Download the latest version of the LiveKit plugin -> Move it to your plugins folder - Reload or restart your server - Take note of the console output from LiveKit. It will tell you the **IP** and **Port** you will need to connect through the app! #### App setup - Download LiveKit App from on of the stores mentioned at the top of this page - In the App tap on **+ Connect** and enter the **IP** and **Port** from the step above - Follow the instructions in the App, either connect anonymously, or identify which player you are by using the **/livekit claim** command in-game and entering the code in the app **NOTE:** Port forwarding LiveKit port (default 4123) is !recommended!. Port forwarding allows the App to directly connect to your server. If you don’t setup port forwarding, the connection will be proxied through our proxy service, which will impact connection speed and stability If you are having issues getting started, join our [Discord](https://discord.gg/PUbBDsR5mJ) and ask for help! ### Setting up your world for rendering The map is limited by a predefined boundary, so you control how big your rendered map will be. By default the bounds are rectangular and 1024x1024 blocks (or 64x64 chunks, 2x2 regions) #### Set your bounds /livekit bounds [-r|-c] For example, **/livekit main_world bounds 4096 -c** would set your rendered map border to a circular (-c) shape, with a radius of 4096 blocks #### Start a full render /livekit render full This will start a full render of the world, inside of your bounds defined with the command above. Don’t overdo your bounds, doing a full render takes a while. ### Permissions If you are using a [Vault](https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/vault.34315/) supported Permissions Plugin (for example LuckPerms) set **useVault** option to **true** in the LiveKit config.yml. Make sure to have Vault in your plugins folder. #### Permissions for players

### Storage Supported storage types are **SQLITE**, **POSTGRESQL** and **MYSQL**. For default storage, **SQLITE** is used and not setup is required #### Migration between storage types

Expand for migration guide

``` #Add the following migrate entry to your Config #This is the currently active storage you want to convert migrate: type: SQLITE sql: host: ‘NULL’ user: ‘NULL’ database: ‘NULL’ password: ‘NULL’ #Change the storage type to your new preferred type storage: type: MYSQL sql: host: ‘localhost’ user: ‘root’ database: ‘LiveKit’ password: ‘asdf23h12h’ ``` The next time you reload or start your server, LiveKit will convert the storage from migrate -> storage. After successful conversion, the migrate entry is removed. Backup your data before migrating! Storage migration will only happen, if the target storage is empty!

### Support Join our LiveKit community on [Discord](https://discord.gg/PUbBDsR5mJ), where you can ask for help, recommend features or just chat with us! ### Plugin integrations #### [EssentialsX](https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/essentialsx.9089/) (Recommended) We’ve added integrations for EssentialsX displaying world spawns (per group), player homes and server warps on the map.
