How to install and setup Oraxen on Spigot

What is Oraxen?

Oraxen is a minecraft plugin which allows to create new items & blocks with custom textures and models. It handles the resourcepack generation, upload (using Polymath) , is fully open source and has an extensible API.

How does it work?

When a Spigot server starts with oraxen installed, the plugin will read all the item configurations and use them to generate json models to link your png textures to your items. It will zip the resources using an optimized algorithm and upload it to a polymath instance. Polymath is a free and opensource software written in Python to host minecraft resourcepacks. By default oraxen will use my own instance, hosted in Switzerland on an oracle virtual private server. When a player will connect to your server, oraxen will link him to the polymath instance which will server him the resourcepack.

Install Oraxen in seconds

Installing Oraxen is a fairly straight forward process: drop Oraxen.jar and ProtocolLib to your /plugins/ folder and restart your server.

Oraxen has been tested with Spigot and Paper 1.18 -> 1.21.3

For 1.21.2+, last version of Oraxen is advised with Paper server software. For older Minecraft versions, first install Oraxen 1.183.0 so you get compatible configuration files, you can then update the jar file.
