After installing the package on the machine, do we need to compile? #4

Closed syang closed 1 year ago

The Readme seems not clear. Could you please make it a bit clearer?

Just run ./build.sh to create the bianary and run mv libextrapi.so ~/.minecraft-pi/mods to install it.

Why do we need the above step? Note: I have successfully installed the python package pip3 install mcpi-addons

Should be fixed in 84da3b7 :+1:

@Bigjango13 I am still not 100% sure if I need to do the ‘compiling’ step after I do pip install. Can you clarify when you put the build.sh there?

Bigjango13 commented 1 year ago

I'm not sure what you mean, what part is confusing? It's needed to compile the backend which is loaded as a MCPI-Reborn mod.

I guess I did not follow the following step (also please see issue #5 -- that's what I experienced)

Just run ./build.sh to create the binary and run mv libextrapi.so ~/.minecraft-pi/mods to install the mod, this is needed because MCPI doesn't support any of these extentions that this api adds, so a C++ mod is loaded to intercept CommandServer::parse.

I am running this on my Macbook, and I am trying to use Python to modify my server. Your compiling step seems to only target Raspberry Pi (Linux), can you give guidance on the Macbook?

This mod is only for Minecraft Pi: Reborn and not the Java/Bedrock/Any other editions. However, if you want use python to control your Java server you might be able to use RaspberryJuice

The reason I only provide a way to build on Linux is because Minecraft Pi: Reborn only supports Linux.
