Online plugins

Nova can automatically download plugins from SpigotMC, Paper Hangar and Modrinth.

The simplest way to add plugins is to use the plugins method:

Groovy
runServer {
    minecraftVersion("1.21.4")
    plugins(
        "https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/luckperms.28140/",
        "https://modrinth.com/plugin/viaversion"
    )
}

The plugins method will automatically detect which platform it should download from.

This method will download it once, then reuse that same plugin. You can force download on each startup by using the plugin method instead:

Groovy
runServer {
    minecraftVersion("1.21.4")
    plugin(
        "https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/luckperms.28140/",
        true // override
    )
}
Groovy
runServer {
    minecraftVersion("1.21.4")
    plugin(
        [
            "https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/luckperms.28140/",
            "https://modrinth.com/plugin/viaversion"
        ],
        true // override
    )
}
