How to Install Piqueserver on NetBSD

Piqueserver is a custom Minecraft server implementation that is designed to be lightweight, fast, and easy to use. This guide will walk you through the process of installing Piqueserver on a NetBSD server.

Requirements

Install Git

Begin by installing Git on your NetBSD server using the command:

pkgin install git

Install Python 3 and pip3

You will need Python 3 installed on your NetBSD server to run Piqueserver. If Python 3 is not already installed on your server, use the following command to install it:

pkgin install python3

Next, you will need to install pip3, the Python package manager. To do this, run the following command:

pkgin install py38-pip

Clone Piqueserver from GitHub

Using Git, clone the Piqueserver repository from GitHub using the following command:

git clone https://github.com/piqueserver/piqueserver.git

This will create a directory called piqueserver in your current directory that contains the server files.

Install Dependencies

Navigate to the piqueserver directory and install the dependencies using pip3:

cd piqueserver
pip3 install -r requirements.txt

This will install all the required Python packages that Piqueserver needs to run.

Run Piqueserver

Once the dependencies have been installed, you can start Piqueserver using the following command:

python3 main.py

This will start the Piqueserver process and allow players to connect to your Minecraft server.

Conclusion

Piqueserver is now installed and running on your NetBSD server. You can configure the server by editing the config.yml file in the piqueserver directory. For more information on how to use Piqueserver, check out the official documentation on GitHub.

If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!

Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
