Yes, this is something I do want to do! Ive been saying for a long while that ill do it, but havent gotten around to it just yet.
One limitation is that it would still require a network connection to download stuff that isnt ours (minecraft its self). Would this be an issue for you? or do you already have the minecraft jar?

No, it is perfectly fine for Nix to have minecraft jar and whatever resources on the Internet. The only limitation Nix has is that no Internet should be available during build/install phase. Thank you very much!
Seems related to #37
Should I close #37 as its basically the same (but I only asked for server code)

This answer confuses me. What we from nix want is to have a directory where we can put things like the minecrat.jar, and give this directory to fabric installer, which then has no way of connecting to the internet.
I was also looking into adding fabric support to nixpkgs today. Good to know this is on someone's radar already.
Fabric devs, feel free to ask any questions.

The steps in nix would be something like:
Nix will download these files from the url humans give it, and will check that the file matches a human provided checksum.
fabric-installer should yell about missing files and such but can't ever access the internet.
I am about 1/2 way through the changes. I will comment on this issue once I have something ready to test.
Hey Ive been looking into this again, is there any information you might need? Not to rush or seem demanding in any way.
Alternatively if you don't think this will get added, maybe could point me to some information on how to manually install fabric without the installer?
Thanks
any updates?
Specifically for nix there is one option available.

while this is a package you can just swap into the minecraft-server module, it's a little bit cursed... So I'm hoping to get a better solution at some point as well.
i have no idea whats "nix" and i dont use it
this is only about nix so why are you asking about it 😂

oh ok for some reason online-mode setting is ignored on my server (its always on)
Has there been any updates on this? @modmuss50 @dali99
While this doesn't solve the problem at the root of this issue, I've gone ahead and packaged (pretty much) all versions of Fabric servers for Nix here: https://github.com/Infinidoge/nix-minecraft
If an offline mode is added, that would make the packaging much easier, though.
Two years later bump, I guess.
I am trying to declaratively set up a Minecraft server on NixOS. I have everything configured properly, and it works fine on Vanilla, but I have no option to use Fabric as it is not packaged yet; Made harder by the lack of an offline mode.
services.minecraft-server.package = pkgs.minecraft-server.fabic-1-21;
services.minecraft-sever.mods.fabric = [
"https://modrinth.com/mod/lithium"
"https://modrinth.com/mod/ferrite-core"

Ahh… How beautiful a Nixed Fabric Minecraft server could be…
On a side note, running a Fabric Minecraft server the "normal" way works just fine. At least there is that. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
For the server everyone should be using the server launcher from: https://fabricmc.net/use/server/ Using the installer is not the reccomended way to setup a server anymore.
I know its not technically offline, but its never going to be able to be (as we cannot bundle the minecraft server). It should work better for your usecase though.
Atemo: you might like https://github.com/Infinidoge/nix-minecraft :) It packages Fabric, and has a module for managing Minecraft servers.
modmuss: Does it bundle Fabric's libraries? I think that ends up being the biggest hurdle, since for the server jar you could just download it yourself and transfer it with the installer, but getting libraries is a pain. I have this solved in nix-minecraft by using api.fabricmc.net to get the libraries and fetching them myself.
Does it bundle Fabric's libraries?
No, it doesnt. Would it help if there was a command line argument to download the libraries and then exit? The biggest struggle with adding an offline installer is finding a good way to actually generate distribute it. Its not impossible by any means, just needs some consideration.

I've looked at it, but I try to avoid using Flakes whenever possible. Still a nice project.
The repo has flake-compat, so you should be able to import it in a non-flakes configuration. (I should add that to the readme)
Hi, I am a packager for NixOS (https://www.nixos.org), and I am trying to package the fabric loader (specifically server side) here. However, due to the certain constraints from NixOS packaging process, there would be no network during it. I am wondering if all other parts like vanilla server are present, how can I force installer not to access Internet? Or, can we have an offline mode?
Thanks in advance!
