|
||
* `share` = `.`
|
||
* `user` = `.`
|
||
* Windows installed:
|
||
* `bin` = `C:\Program Files\Minetest\bin (Depends on the install location)`
|
||
* `share` = `C:\Program Files\Minetest (Depends on the install location)`
|
||
* `user` = `%APPDATA%\Minetest`
|
||
* Linux installed:

|
||
Configuration file
|
||
------------------
|
||
- Default location:
|
||
`user/minetest.conf`
|
||
- This file is created by closing Minetest for the first time.
|
||
- A specific file can be specified on the command line:
|
||
`--config <path-to-file>`
|
||
- A run-in-place build will look for the configuration file in
|
||
`location_of_exe/../minetest.conf` and also `location_of_exe/../../minetest.conf`
|
||
|
||
Command-line options
|
||
--------------------
|
||
- Use `--help`

|
||
#### Download
|
||
|
||
You can install Git for easily keeping your copy up to date.
|
||
If you don’t want Git, read below on how to get the source without Git.
|
||
This is an example for installing Git on Debian/Ubuntu:
|
||
|
||
sudo apt install git
|
||
|
||
For Fedora users:
|
||
|
||
sudo dnf install git

|
||
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/minetest/minetest_game.git games/minetest_game
|
||
|
||
Download IrrlichtMt to `lib/irrlichtmt`, it will be used to satisfy the IrrlichtMt dependency that way:
|
||
|
||
git clone --branch 1.9.0mt7 --depth 1 https://github.com/minetest/irrlicht.git lib/irrlichtmt
|
||
|
||

|
||
mv irrlicht-master irrlichtmt
|
||
cd ..
|
||
|
||
#### Build
|
||
|
||
Build a version that runs directly from the source directory:
|
||
|
||
cmake . -DRUN_IN_PLACE=TRUE
|
||
make -j$(nproc)
|
||
|
||
Run it:
|
||
|
||
./bin/minetest
|
||
|
||
- Use `cmake . -LH` to see all CMake options and their current state.
|
||
- If you want to install it system-wide (or are making a distribution package),
|
||
you will want to use `-DRUN_IN_PLACE=FALSE`.
|
||
- You can build a bare server by specifying `-DBUILD_SERVER=TRUE`.
|
||
- You can disable the client build by specifying `-DBUILD_CLIENT=FALSE`.
|
||
- You can select between Release and Debug build by `-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=<Debug or Release>`.
|
||
- Debug build is slower, but gives much more useful output in a debugger.
|
||
- If you build a bare server you don't need to compile IrrlichtMt, just the headers suffice.
|
||
- In that case use `-DIRRLICHT_INCLUDE_DIR=/some/where/irrlichtmt/include`.
|
||
|
||
- Minetest will use the IrrlichtMt package that is found first, given by the following order:
|
||
1. Specified `IRRLICHTMT_BUILD_DIR` CMake variable
|
||
2. `${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/lib/irrlichtmt` (if existent)
|
||
3. Installation of IrrlichtMt in the system-specific library paths
|
||
4. For server builds with disabled `BUILD_CLIENT` variable, the headers from `IRRLICHT_INCLUDE_DIR` will be used.
|
||
- NOTE: Changing the IrrlichtMt build directory (includes system installs) requires regenerating the CMake cache (`rm CMakeCache.txt`)
|
||
|
||

### Compiling on Windows using MSVC
|
||
|
||
### Requirements
|
||
|
||
- [Visual Studio 2015 or newer](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com)
|
||
- [CMake](https://cmake.org/download/)
|
||
- [vcpkg](https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg)
|
||
- [Git](https://git-scm.com/downloads)
|
||
|
||
### Compiling and installing the dependencies
|
||
|
||
It is highly recommended to use vcpkg as package manager.
|
||
|
||
After you successfully built vcpkg you can easily install the required libraries:
|
||
```powershell
|
||
vcpkg install zlib zstd curl[winssl] openal-soft libvorbis libogg libjpeg-turbo sqlite3 freetype luajit gmp jsoncpp opengl-registry --triplet x64-windows
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
- **Don't forget about IrrlichtMt.** The easiest way is to clone it to `lib/irrlichtmt` as described in the Linux section.
|
||
- `curl` is optional, but required to read the serverlist, `curl[winssl]` is required to use the content store.
|
||
- `openal-soft`, `libvorbis` and `libogg` are optional, but required to use sound.
|
||
- `luajit` is optional, it replaces the integrated Lua interpreter with a faster just-in-time interpreter.
|
||
- `gmp` and `jsoncpp` are optional, otherwise the bundled versions will be compiled
|
||
|
||
There are other optional libraries, but they are not tested if they can build and link correctly.
|
||
|
||
Use `--triplet` to specify the target triplet, e.g. `x64-windows` or `x86-windows`.
|
||
|
||
### Compile Minetest
|
||
|
||
#### a) Using the vcpkg toolchain and CMake GUI
|
||
1. Start up the CMake GUI
|
||
2. Select **Browse Source...** and select DIR/minetest
|
||
3. Select **Browse Build...** and select DIR/minetest-build
|
||
4. Select **Configure**
|
||
5. Choose the right visual Studio version and target platform. It has to match the version of the installed dependencies
|
||
6. Choose **Specify toolchain file for cross-compiling**
|
||
7. Click **Next**
|
||
8. Select the vcpkg toolchain file e.g. `D:/vcpkg/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake`
|
||
9. Click Finish
|
||
10. Wait until cmake have generated the cash file
|
||
11. If there are any errors, solve them and hit **Configure**
|
||
12. Click **Generate**
|
||
13. Click **Open Project**
|
||
14. Compile Minetest inside Visual studio.
|
||
|
||
#### b) Using the vcpkg toolchain and the commandline
|
||
|
||
Run the following script in PowerShell:
|
||
|
||
```powershell
|
||
cmake . -G"Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64" -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=D:/vcpkg/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DENABLE_GETTEXT=OFF -DENABLE_CURSES=OFF
|
||
cmake --build . --config Release
|
||
```
|
||
Make sure that the right compiler is selected and the path to the vcpkg toolchain is correct.
|
||
|
||
### Windows Installer using WiX Toolset
|
||
|
||
Requirements:
|
||
* [Visual Studio 2017](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/)
|
||
* [WiX Toolset](https://wixtoolset.org/)
|
||
|
||
In the Visual Studio 2017 Installer select **Optional Features -> WiX Toolset**.
|
||
|
||
Build the binaries as described above, but make sure you unselect `RUN_IN_PLACE`.
|
||
|
||
Open the generated project file with Visual Studio. Right-click **Package** and choose **Generate**.
|
||
It may take some minutes to generate the installer.
|
||
|
||

Docker
|
||
------
|
||
We provide Minetest server Docker images using the GitLab mirror registry.
|
||
|
||
Images are built on each commit and available using the following tag scheme:
|
||
|
||
* `registry.gitlab.com/minetest/minetest/server:latest` (latest build)
|
||
* `registry.gitlab.com/minetest/minetest/server:<branch/tag>` (current branch or current tag)
|
||
* `registry.gitlab.com/minetest/minetest/server:<commit-id>` (current commit id)
|
||
|
||
If you want to test it on a Docker server you can easily run:
|
||
|
||
sudo docker run registry.gitlab.com/minetest/minetest/server:<docker tag>
|
||
|
||
If you want to use it in a production environment you should use volumes bound to the Docker host
|
||
to persist data and modify the configuration:
|
||
|
||
sudo docker create -v /home/minetest/data/:/var/lib/minetest/ -v /home/minetest/conf/:/etc/minetest/ registry.gitlab.com/minetest/minetest/server:master
|
||
|
||
Data will be written to `/home/minetest/data` on the host, and configuration will be read from `/home/minetest/conf/minetest.conf`.
|
||
|
||
**Note:** If you don't understand the previous commands please read the official Docker documentation before use.
|
||
|
||
You can also host your Minetest server inside a Kubernetes cluster. See our example implementation in [`misc/kubernetes.yml`](misc/kubernetes.yml).

||
Version scheme
|
||
--------------
|
||
We use `major.minor.patch` since 5.0.0-dev. Prior to that we used `0.major.minor`.
|
||
|
||
- Major is incremented when the release contains breaking changes, all other
|
||
numbers are set to 0.
|
||
- Minor is incremented when the release contains new non-breaking features,
|
||
patch is set to 0.
|
||
- Patch is incremented when the release only contains bugfixes and very
|
||
minor/trivial features considered necessary.
|
||
|
||
Since 5.0.0-dev and 0.4.17-dev, the dev notation refers to the next release,
|
||
i.e.: 5.0.0-dev is the development version leading to 5.0.0.
|
||
Prior to that we used `previous_version-dev`.
