How to create a server

CraftingStore uses servers (API Tokens) to communicate with the plugin. This guide will help you with creating a new server.

1. Open the dashboard at CraftingStore.net (click)
2. Click [ Webstore -> servers ] in the sidebar of the panel.
3. Click "New server" at the right top.
4. Enter a name, and select the desired plugin version.
5. Click save. You will now get an API key. You can enter this API key into the plugin's config.

Connection types:
- CraftingStore plugin: If you use our plugin for Bukkit, Craftbukkit, Spigot, BungeeCord, Sponge, etc. Use this option.
- RCON: If you want to use the RCON protocol, use this.
- Database: Insert/update a record in your own database.

CraftingStore Plugin:
The plugin is our Java plugin, you download and install the plugin like any other. Our plugin has support for Bukkit, Spigot, BungeeCord, and Sponge.

RCON:
RCON (remote control administration) is a protocol used by many "source" games like CS:GO, TeamFortress and many others. You can supply an IP and port and we will send the commands.

Database:
The database mode will allow you to enter your own query. We will run this SQL query on your MySQL server. You can, for example, enter this:
INSERT INTO payments(name) VALUES ('{player}')

You have to enter this command at the "package", in the command box.
Note: We will escape all special characters in the names to prevent SQL injections.
