MC Plugin Development

The pano-mc-plugin is the bridge between your Minecraft server and the Pano web platform.

Communication (WebSocket)

Communication is handled over WebSocket for real-time performance. To ensure security, we use a hybrid encryption method:

• RSA: Used for the initial key exchange.
• AES-256: Used for encrypting all subsequent messages.

Supported Platforms

We support a wide range of Minecraft server platforms:

• Spigot / Paper / Folia
• Bungeecord / Velocity

COMPATIBILITY

When developing features or fixing bugs, you must ensure the code works correctly across all supported platforms. Use platform-specific modules for any logic that cannot be shared.

Translations

If you want to add, change, or remove translations for the Minecraft plugin (or the core platform), please modify the files in the Pano repository under: Pano/src/main/resources/locales

Development

The plugin repository uses a modular structure where common logic is shared in a core module, while platform-specific implementations reside in their respective modules.

Branching Policy

Just like the Pano Core, this project follows a three-branch release cycle.

• alpha: The active development branch. All Pull Requests should be opened against the alpha branch.
• beta: Pre-release stage for testing.
• main: The stable release branch.

Key Integrations

The plugin integrates with popular Minecraft plugins to provide a seamless experience:

• AuthMeReloaded: For unified authentication.
• LuckPerms: For permission synchronization.
• Ban Managers: For viewing and managing bans via the web.
