Options/Misc

Here are some misc. options of mcman

Setting the Java binary

If you want mcman to use a custom java binary, you can set the environment variable JAVA_BIN to its path.

For servers that have the launcher.java_version field set, mcman will try to use the JAVA_*_BIN environment first before JAVA_BIN.

For example, for

[launcher]
java_version = "16"

mcman will first check for JAVA_16_BIN, then JAVA_BIN and if both aren't set, "java" will be used as default.

Disabling lockfiles

To disable Lockfiles, you can set the MCMAN_DISABLE_LOCKFILE environment variable to true.

Addon download attempts

By default, addons get 3 tries to be downloaded. To change this, set the MAX_TRIES environment variable to the max amount of tries. For example, set it to 1 if you want mcman to try only once.

Overriding server ports in networks
