Supported functionality

Although pyCraft is compatible any supported server, only a subset of all packets are currently decoded or encoded by the library: those necessary to remain connected to the server, those used for chat, and some others.

Developers wishing to use other functionality with pyCraft can contribute by implementing packet classes for the desired packets, adding them under minecraft/networking/packets, and sending a pull request.

Supported Python versions

pyCraft is compatible with (at least) the following Python implementations:

  • Python 3.5
  • Python 3.6
  • Python 3.7
  • Python 3.8
  • Python 3.9
  • PyPy

Requirements

The requirements are also stored in setup.py

See the installation instructions for the cryptography library here: https://cryptography.io/en/latest/installation/ but essentially pip install -r requirements.txt should cover everything.
