Due to CurseForge uncooperative, we have to stop updating this project on CurseForge (another reason is the text editor on this site is too hard to use); please go to our project page at SourceForge https://sourceforge.net/projects/rivoreo-mc-plugins/ or ModForest https://www.modforest.com/minecraft/mods/mcipm/ for future updates.

Provide access to Minecraft internal data structures (entities only, in current version) from external command. Useful for external debugging and scripting (for example using Unix shell).

Install Mod

===========

To install the mod to Minecraft Forge, copy "mcipm-<version>.jar" into "mods" directory; you will also need to extract all files from "mcipm-dependencies-20200421.tar.bz2" into "mods" directory to provide the Java libraries it depends.

For example:

$ cd /path/to/your/minecraft/server/directory/

$ cp /path/to/mcipm-1.0.0.jar mods/

$ cd mods

$ tar -x -f /path/to/mcipm-dependencies-20200421.tar.bz2

Build/Install Client Tool

=========================

To build the client tool from source, simply extract the client source package, compile all ".c" files with your C compiler and link them together; for example:

$ tar -x -f /path/to/mcipm-client-1.0.1-src.tar.bz2

$ gcc -Wall -O1 *.c -o mcipm

To use the prebuilt binary package, simply extract the package and use the executable file, as it has no additional dependencies.
