## What is MCSManager?

**MCSManager Panel** (MCSM) is a **modern, secure, and distributed control panel** designed for managing Minecraft and Steam game servers.

MCSManager has already gained a certain level of popularity within the community, specifically Minecraft. MCSManager excels in offering a centralized management solution for multiple server instances and provides a secure and reliable multi-user permission system. In addition, We are committed to supporting server administrators not only for Minecraft but also for Terraria and various Steam games. Our goal is to foster a thriving and supportive community for game server management.

MCSManager **supports English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese**, with plans to add support for more languages in the future!

## Features

1. One-click deployment of `Minecraft` Java/Bedrock Server

3. Customizable UI, create your own layout
4. Support `Docker` virtualization, multiuser, and commercial services
5. Manage multiple servers with a single web interface
6. More...

<br />

## Runtime Environment

MCSM supports both `Windows` and `Linux`. The only requirement is `Node.js` and some libraries **for decompression**.

Require [Node.js 16.20.2](https://nodejs.org/en) or above.

<br />

## Installation

### Windows

For Windows, We provides packaged executable files:

Go to: [https://mcsmanager.com/](https://mcsmanager.com/)

<br />

### Linux

**One-Command Deployment**

> Script needs to register system services, it requires root permissions.

```bash
sudo su -c "wget -qO- https://script.mcsmanager.com/setup.sh | bash"
```

**Usage**

```bash
systemctl start mcsm-{web,daemon}
systemctl stop mcsm-{web,daemon}
```

- Only supports Ubuntu/Centos/Debian/Archlinux.
- Installation directory: `/opt/mcsmanager/`.

<br />

**Linux Manual Installation**

- If the installation script failed to execute correctly, you can try install it manually.

```bash
# Create /opt directory if not already
mkdir /opt
# Switch to /opt
cd /opt/
# Download Node.js 20.11. If you already have Node.js 16+ installed, ignore this step.
wget https://nodejs.org/dist/v20.11.0/node-v20.11.0-linux-x64.tar.xz
# Decompress Node.js source
tar -xvf node-v20.11.0-linux-x64.tar.xz
# Add Node.js to system PATH
ln -s /opt/node-v20.11.0-linux-x64/bin/node /usr/bin/node
ln -s /opt/node-v20.11.0-linux-x64/bin/npm /usr/bin/npm

# Prepare MCSM's installation directory
mkdir /opt/mcsmanager/
cd /opt/mcsmanager/

# Download MCSManager
wget https://github.com/MCSManager/MCSManager/releases/latest/download/mcsmanager_linux_release.tar.gz
tar -zxf mcsmanager_linux_release.tar.gz

# Install dependencies
./install.sh

# Please open two terminals or screens.

# Start the daemon first.
./start-daemon.sh

# Start the web interface at the second terminal or screen.
./start-web.sh

# For web access, go to http://localhost:23333/
# In general, the web interface will automatically scan and add the local daemon.
```

This installation approach does not automatically set up MCSManager as a system service. Therefore, it is necessary to use `screen` for management. For those interested in managing MCSManager through a system service, please refer to our wiki/documentation.

<br />

## Browser Compatibility

- Supported on modern browsers including `Chrome`, `Firefox`, and `Safari`.
- Support for `IE` has been discontinued.

<br />
