macOS Scripting help with Minecraft Server.

Spoonless · Apr 26, 2012

Hey guys, newbie here.

I was wondering if someone could help me with a scripting problem I've been having.

I recently installed a Bukkit Minecraft server, but for it to work properly, I need to first fire up my "Portmap" app to port forward, and then run the .command files to start the server. Everything works like a charm, but I've been trying to modify that .command file so that it opens Portmap AND starts the server (in that order, otherwise I guess the server wont start properly.)

I have tried googling but to no avail.

Here's the code from that .command file, from what I can tell it doesn't seem to be too complicated...

Code:

#!/bin/bash
cd "`dirname "$0"`"
java -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar craftbukkit.jar nogui

Any thoughts?

Code:

#!/bin/bash
# change path to where you copied Portmap
open "/Applications/Port Map.app/"
# Give it a few seconds, comment it if not needed
sleep 2
cd "`dirname "$0"`"
java -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar craftbukkit.jar nogui
