Minecraft Update-Role

=========

This role runs the bash script in ./files that can either backup, restore, or backup, install new package, and the restore backups to a new install of forge modpacks.

Requirements

---

• Curse provided .zip server modpack files
• access to create files in /tmp
• access to sudo for rsync and file deletion

Dependencies

---

• unzip

Usage

---

Currently the role tasks do not function but the bash script does. You can run it manually using command below:

Backup only:

sudo bash ~/minecraftupdate.sh --pack-path /opt/minecraft/PO3/ -b

Installation of a new updated pack version:

sudo bash ~/minecraftupdate.sh --pack-path /opt/minecraft/CrackPack3/ -n Eternal+\(Server+Pack+1.3.3\).zip

It will rsync the backup paths to the TEMP directory, unzip the new pack folder into the directory, then rsync the files back.

Usage commands:

sudo bash ~/minecraftupdate.sh -h

Variable Defaults

• TEMP_DIR='/tmp/updatemc/'
• PACK_PATH='/usr/bin/minecraft/server/'

TODO

• Update to do gzip of backups after they have been rsync'd.
