Creating a Startup Script |
Learn how to create a startup script for Geyser-Standalone. |
:::caution
In order for this to work, you MUST have Java 17 (or higher) installed!
:::
Once you have downloaded and placed Geyser into its own folder, you will need to create a startup script; similar to how you'd run a Bukkit/Spigot/Paper server.
- Create a new text file in the same location as the Geyser-Standalone jar file, and call it
run.bat
. Open this with a text editor (preferably Notepad++), and insert the text below:
@echo off
java -Xms1024M -jar Geyser-Standalone.jar
pause
- Double-click the run.bat, and Geyser should start up. Geyser will generate all the needed files.
- Create a text file called run.command, and open it with a text editor such as TextEdit or TextMate. Type the text below into the run.command file:
#!/bin/bash
cd "$( dirname "$0" )"
java -Xms1024M -jar Geyser-Standalone.jar
- Open Terminal, and type in
chmod a+x
(Do NOT press return!), and drag your run.command file into the Terminal. - Press return on your keyboard, and Geyser will start up. Geyser will generate all the needed files.
- Create a file called run.sh, and open it with a text editor. Type the text below into your
run.sh
file:
#!/bin/sh
cd "$( dirname "$0" )"
java -Xms1024M -jar Geyser-Standalone.jar
- In your default terminal application, make the file executable by running
chmod +x ~(dir)/run.sh
wheredir
is the name of the folder Geyser is in, or by changing the file permissions; - Open your default terminal application, and type
./run.sh
to run Geyser. Geyser will generate all the needed files.
