Put your minecraft server to rest, while SleepingServerStarter is watching ! Save power, save the world !

What it does :

Listen on the same port as your minecraft server.
When someone connects, exit and launch your minecraft server.
When server is stopping (by EmptyServerStopper by example), watch until someone reconnects.

Require (if install from source) : NodeJs (^14.*) & NPM

Windows : https://nodejs.org/en/download/
Linux : https://github.com/nodesource/distributions#debinstall
EmptyServerStopper to stop your server when nobody is there : https://github.com/vincss/mcEmptyServerStopper
Install :
- From Source
  - Download this repository as zip.
  - Unzip it at your minecraft's root.
  - Launch "npm install", to restore the needed package.
  - Start using "npm start".
- From Binaries
  - Download binaries depending on your system.
  - Place the executable next to your server file (rename it to spigot.jar ).
  - (For linux, maybe a "chmod +x sleepingServerStarter.run", will be required, play tell me if it's work :-) ).
  - Make sure your server is stopped.
  - Run the executable.

Update :

Run "npm update" to update packages (minecraft protocol could need some updates).

Use WebServer for dynmap :

You need to change your configuration from class: org.dynmap.InternalClientUpdateComponent to class: org.dynmap.JsonFileClientUpdateComponent (comment all the section InternalClientUpdateComponent and uncomment JsonFileClientUpdateComponent).
Chat will not work when hosted by mcsleepingserverstarter. For a full compatibilty, you can use an apache server. https://github.com/webbukkit/dynmap/wiki/Setting-up-without-the-Internal-Web-Server
