Minecraft plugin AzLink

🔌 About AzLink

AzLink is a Minecraft plugin that connects a game server or proxy with an Azuriom website. It provides a bridge between the server runtime and the Azuriom site to synchronize account-related data, shop and vote integrations, and expose server-side placeholders for use in plugins and messages.

🎯 Purpose

The plugin's primary purpose is website-to-server integration: keeping player accounts and site-driven features (shop purchases, vote rewards, reward granting) consistent between an Azuriom website and one or more Minecraft server backends or proxies. It is intended for server owners who run an Azuriom website and need a supported, maintained connector for in-game integrations.

⚙️ Features

• Server↔Website linking for account management and authentication flows.
• Integration points for Azuriom shop and vote extensions (can be enabled via configuration).
• PlaceholderAPI support on Bukkit-based platforms (registers placeholders such as a player's website money and shop/vote-related placeholders).
• Single .jar works across multiple supported server platforms (with legacy builds for very old servers).
• Config-driven behavior (configuration file controls placeholders and integration options).

🧩 Who It Is For

• Server owners running an Azuriom website who need in-game shop, vote, or account synchronization.
• Networks using proxies (Bungee/Velocity) or single-server setups on Bukkit-family servers.
• Administrators who want PlaceholderAPI-ready placeholders populated from their website data.

🏗️ Example Use Cases

• Expose a player's Azuriom website balance in chat or scoreboards via PlaceholderAPI.
• Automatically grant in-game items or ranks when a purchase is made through the Azuriom shop.
• Award vote rewards on the server when the site vote plugin records a vote.

⚙️ Installation

📥 Setup

• Download the official AzLink plugin JAR appropriate for your platform and place it in the server's plugins/ (or platform equivalent) directory.
• Restart the server to load the plugin.
• Verify startup messages in the server console to confirm AzLink initialized correctly.

📦 Dependencies

• PlaceholderAPI — supported and optional on Bukkit-based servers for placeholder registration.
• An Azuriom website instance is required for the integration to function (the plugin communicates with the site).

🧾 Configuration

• AzLink creates and uses a configuration file where you enable/disable features such as shop and vote placeholders and provide connection credentials to your Azuriom website.
• Placeholder registration for shop and vote features can be toggled in the config on Bukkit-family servers.

🧠 Technical Notes

• Supported server platforms include Bukkit-family servers (Bukkit, Spigot, Paper, Folia) and several proxy/alternative server platforms (BungeeCord, Velocity, Sponge). Mod/forge loader ports exist (Fabric/Forge/NeoForge) for modded environments.
• The plugin is open-source and published under the MIT license.
• Official releases and changelogs are published by the Azuriom project and maintained in the AzLink repository.

🤝 When This Plugin Is Useful

If you run an Azuriom website and need a maintained connector to surface website-driven features in-game (shop, votes, account data, placeholders), AzLink provides a configurable, multi-platform bridge that integrates those systems without custom development.
