Restore Config - Configuration Restoration Tool

Restore Config mod offers a simple yet effective solution for backing up Minecraft server settings. It's designed for situations when configuration files might be accidentally modified, corrupted, or completely deleted, which typically requires manual restoration of each parameter individually.

How the System Works

The core functionality comes down to a single command /restoreconfig that automatically copies all files from the special configrestore folder to the main configuration directory. The process includes replacing files with identical names and working with subdirectories.

To start using it, simply create a configrestore folder in the server's root directory. If the folder doesn't exist, the system will automatically create it upon first use of the command. After that, place all configuration files you want to keep as backups in this folder.

Installation and Usage Features

The mod functions exclusively on the server side and doesn't register commands for clients. When installed only on the server, the command is available exclusively through the console. If the mod is installed on both client and server, command execution requires operator privileges.

It's recommended to first edit configurations in the configrestore folder, then use the command to copy them over. This approach minimizes the risk of errors and accidental overwriting of important settings.

Practical Application

This tool is particularly useful for test servers where frequent crashes can lead to configuration file corruption. Now administrators can quickly restore server functionality without needing direct access to the file system.
