1. Prerequisites

This PHP library will need to be running with at least PHP version 7.1 or higher. You can make sure about this by adding following to your composer.json file (composer require php doesn’t work).

{
    "require": {
        "php": ">=7.1"
    }
}

With that requirement set, you can now add the library itself.

composer require d3strukt0r/votifier-client

Minecraft server with the Votifier plugin

You can set this up to be able to test if you website is set up correctly.

We can use a Docker container for this

docker run \
    -it \
    -p 25565:25565 \
    -v $(pwd)/spigot:/app \
    -e JAVA_MAX_MEMORY=1G \
    -e EULA=true \
    d3strukt0r/spigot

And place the latest and desired Votifier Jar that you want. Out of simplicity let’s use the classic one.

https://dev.bukkit.org/projects/votifier/files/latest

And put it in ./spigot/plugins/

After that you can restart the server with the previous command.

Now you have your project with the plugin and a server which runs the votifier plugin.
