[DEV/WEB] WebSend v2.4 - Use PHP and other web-languages for bukkit! [1.4.7-R1.0]

​

​

WebSend - Use PHP for Bukkit!:
Version: v2.3
BukkitDev: http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/websend/
What does this plugin do?
A scheme:
Ingame command -> Your php-enabled server
-> Your PHP file does stuff and provides output/commands -> Plugin executes commands and prints output.
Or:
Webpage command -> bukkit server -> Plugin executes commands and prints output.

Example scripts are provided in the files.
!!! IMPORTANT NOTE !!!
Use the bukkitDev forum for bugs, questions and other stuff. I will no longer respond here!

A few of the possibilities:

• Online adminstration screen
• Online console
• Membership system (become VIP with a donation)
• Paypal donation system
• ...

Features:

• Seperate thread (no server lag because of the wait.)
• Commands (ingame or console emulation)
• Command to color output send from php.
• Secure connection (protected with password hash)
• Permissions support (just "websend")
• Both ways enabled (PHP -> bukkit | bukkit -> php (-> bukkit))

Installation: (more detailed instructions can be found on bukkitdev):

1. Put the plugin in the plugin folder.
2. Start/reload server to allow the config file to be generated.
3. Open the example php file and fill in your password.
4. Upload the example php file to your server.
5. Open the config file and fill in the settings.
6. Reload server and test with "/ws timeset".
7. Go to the bukkitDev page to find instructions to get started.

Awesome! Thanks. XD (sorry for late reply)

I have a question. How can it be possible to make rtriggers summon a command to this? It seems to be able to only run commands in the console, and this only seems to work when you run a command from the client.

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

I'll look into it.

 

How change a using port? I can't forward 4445 port.

 

Download this, and put ALTPORT=1234 in your config.

Download the latest version.

Thanks again! XD

 

Hey wondering is this possiable to hook this into this site www.enjin.com see this page i made www.kustomcraft.enjin.com on the side you will see a donate pannel can this plugin work with it, so say if some one donates it does a commands and ranks them up Hope you can make it thanks for epic work xD

 

I'm not sure Enjin allows this. I suggest you look at the modules for your page and find a "custom php" module or something like that. If you find one, it may be possible.

 

Hm i couldnt find one but it has all these modules

Is there a fix for .NET. I've tried:

static void Main(string[] args)
{
TcpClient clientSocket = new System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient();
clientSocket.Connect("127.0.0.1", 4445);

NetworkStream ns = clientSocket.GetStream();

byte[] outStream = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("/Command/ExecuteConsoleCommand:give _Larsey_ 264 10");
ns.Write(outStream, 0, outStream.Length);
ns.Flush();
}


resulted in:

java.net.SocketException: Connection reset
at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(Unknown Source)
at sun.nio.cs.StreamDecoder.readBytes(Unknown Source)
at sun.nio.cs.StreamDecoder.implRead(Unknown Source)
at sun.nio.cs.StreamDecoder.read(Unknown Source)
at java.io.InputStreamReader.read(Unknown Source)
at java.io.BufferedReader.fill(Unknown Source)
at java.io.BufferedReader.readLine(Unknown Source)
at java.io.BufferedReader.readLine(Unknown Source)
at websend.PHPSktSrvrThread.run(Main.java:307)

Anyone?

 

The HTML module may do the job, if you have a extern php webserver. (I use this one.)
One you have both, you could upload your php scripts to the php host and just use a POST to send data from your enjin page

Have you tried using a different encoding (UTF-8 maybe)?

 

Im stuck, i got this C# code:

Code:

TcpClient clientSocket = new System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient();
            clientSocket.Connect("127.0.0.1", 4445);

            NetworkStream ns = clientSocket.GetStream();

            string password = "141e45baa5a7fdd79f3073406ecf0cda;";

            byte[] outStream = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(password);
            ns.Write(outStream, 0, password.Length);
            ns.Flush();

Results in this error:

Code:

20:33:25 [SEVERE] null
java.net.SocketException: Connection reset
        at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(Unknown Source)

        at websend.PHPSktSrvrThread.run(Main.java:307)

I've tried all encodings, the result is the same, does anyone have the solution

 

Have you tried using no encoding?

 

ok i messaged you

 

Hey! I got a few more suggestions. For postdata to send. Bukkit build number, minecraft version number, number of max players, number of current players(Yes i know it already sends a list of players, but its for convenience) and the port that the server is running on. Could you do this? Thank you

 

Implemented everything except mc version number, which I couldn't find a value for.
Update to get the new version.

 

Thank you!

Edit: The bukkit version string contains the minecraft version string. so that works just fine!

 

Ok, i have no clue what this does, or more precisely "when it does it do it".

Is every line written on the minecraft server send to all the scripts?
This really needs explanation on how it sends data to server and when. So it seems to send HTTP requests with POST and GET, but how to trigger this?
Is it an ingame command like:
"Meh" says:
/php domain.com?hello=data yay!
And Server Recieves:
$_GET["hello"] = "data";
$_POST["args"][0] = "Meh":
$_POST["args"][1] = "yay!";

I have no clue, what does it do?
Some Explanation in Startpost or a wiki Page would be really nice so you can figure this out without asking every 3. Page on this topic or bruteforcing minecraft chat. :/

 

I actually have a bukkitdev page. Clicky

Its actually way simpeler.
If you follow the instructions on the bukkitdev page and set it up correctly, all you need to do is
/ws argument1 argument2 argument3
and so on.

It will then be send to the predefined php file (defined in config) and will be supplied amongst other data as POST data.

if you type /ws domain.com?hello=data the output will be $_POST["args"][0] == domain.com?hello=data

 

I knew that there is a bukkitdev-site but there is only one page with little text and no links. So it doesn't really help.

The bukkitdev-page navigation is not just terrible its more like it doesn't seem to exist.

unreadable story short:
No links
(This page-site-whatever-thing is driving me crazy.)

 

What do you suggest I do?

 

Waterflames, can you make the socket restart itself when an exception occurs in your parsing code, currently if someone feeds the socket malformed input the socket server dies completely and you have to /reload to get it back.

Also, you should document "/Command/ExecuteBukkitCommand-PlayerName:" - it's very useful.

 

Better Navigation.

Links on the Main Page.

Overall it just needs more links so people who don't know what pages are there can find them.

 

This is awesome. I can finally develop a proper reward system for my donors.

Only one thing though, for some reason commands cannot be send anymore after some time. I think it's Ycros issue, too, since I have to reload/restart the server to get it to work again. The only thing is that the php page doesn't die in that case, it runs "normally", but nothing happens on the server. I don't want my members to complain when they paid for something and don't get their reward in-game.

 

My issue only happened while I was developing my custom PHP client for it, now that I've finished it hasn't ever died since. Maybe you're sometimes sending incorrect data? If you happen to be using PHP lithium, I could share my code.

Ideally the plugin should return a status or result of some sort back, so you can verify if things succeeded.

 

PHP:

socket_write($sock, $command = "/Command/ExecuteConsoleCommand:say hello world!;", strlen($command) + 1)
     or die("error: failed to write to socket\n");
echo "It worked.";

While this worked at first, it just stops to work randomly - The script displays "It worked.", but nothing happens in-game.

 

Is that the actual command you use, or just a replacement?

 

I used this, as well as

PHP:

"/Command/ExecuteConsoleCommand:give " . $this->memberData['members_display_name'] . " 1 1;"

Where $this->memberData['members_display_name'] is a variable containing a player name.

Both didn't work after some time, and it reworks on restart.

Moreover, the script can't connect to the socket ( it just dies ) after a while, nothing throws in the console, it just seems fine but it won't work until a restart...

Using the McMyAdmin Wrapper

 

Well. first of all, amazing plugin. i love it.

it work well with bukkit -> php -> bukkit but i can't make run with php->bukkit... and that is what i need most.

Here are some errors i getting:

When i reload/start server:

When i use ExternalTimeSet.php

That sucks... don't seem to be php bad coding..

anyway, here are some configs..

php file:

PHP:

<?php
$HOST = "127.0.0.1"; //the ip of the bukkit server
$password = "test";
//Can't touch this:
$sock = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0)
or die("error: could not create socket\n");
$succ = socket_connect($sock, $HOST, 4445)
or die("error: could not connect to host\n");
//Authentification
socket_write($sock, $command = md5($password)."<Password>", strlen($command) + 1)
or die("error: failed to write to socket\n");
//Begin custom code here.
socket_write($sock, $command = "/Command/ExecuteConsoleCommand:time day;", strlen($command) + 1) //Writing text/command we want to send to the server
or die("error: failed to write to socket\n");
socket_write($sock, $command = "Time set to day;", strlen($command) + 1)
or die("error: failed to write to socket\n");
?>

config file:

Code:

#Configuration and settings file!
#Help: URL: set to the full path of your server php file (see example).
#Help: PASS: change the password to one of your choice (set the same in the server php file).
URL=http://192.168.0.13/test/mine/minecraft.php
PASS=test
#Optional settings. Remove the '#' to use.
#FORCEPORT=false
#FILE=
WEBLISTENER_ACTIVE=true
#ALTPROTECTION=25565

server is using port 4445 and the php file still white.


plugins:

all works fine before websend so the errorlog come from it.

Thanks for help!
