should see some new files and subfolders.
3. [Download the latest version of the ScriptCraft Mod][sc-plugin]. Then copy the ScriptCraft.jar file to the 1. Download Spigot's [BuildTools.jar][spigotdl]

3. Open a terminal (Mac and Linux) or command prompt (windows) window and type `java -jar BuildTools.jar`. This will kick off a long series of commands to "build" SpigotMC.
4. When the build is done, there will be a new file beginning with `spigot` and ending in `.jar` in the spigotmc directory. Run this file by typing `java -jar spigot-1.10.2.jar` (it might not be that exact name - you can list files in the directory by typing `dir` (Windows) or `ls` (Mac and Linux).

the ScriptCraft Mod and are now ready to begin programming in Minecraft.
Normally, Minecraft Mods are written in Java. This makes writing your
own extension or game rules difficult because you must first learn Java.
Java is different enough from Javascript. With the ScriptCraft plug-in
installed, you don't have to learn Java, you can extend and customize
Minecraft your way using Javascript. Javascript is easier to learn than
Java but it's also more flexible and powerful and is used for creating
interactive web sites and many other applications.
## CanaryMod and Permissions
CanaryMod works slightly differently to CraftBukkit in how it handles
permissions and groups. By default, there are 4 groups: visitors,
players, mods and admins. Each player who joins the game is added to the
'visitors' group. This group has no permissions by default so
visitors can't break or place blocks. If you would like to change this
behaviour then issue the following command at the console window:
groupmod permission add visitors canary.world.build
If you would like all admins to have scripting ability then issue the
following command:
groupmod permission add admins scriptcraft.evaluate
This will enable all admins on your server to issue javascript statements.
All operators can issue any command (including the `/js` command to evaluate javascript).
For more information on CanaryMod's Permissions and Groups see the following:
* [Permissions and Groups][cmPerms]
* [List of Permissions][cmPermsList]

## Installation # Installation
CanaryMod is a version of the Minecraft server software which allows Before installing ScriptCraft you must first install SpigotMC which is
easy addition of 'Mods' and extensions to Minecraft. ScriptCraft is a a special version of Minecraft Server that makes it easy to customize
'Mod' for use with CanaryMod. Adding Mods to Minecraft can be the game.
difficult but CanaryMod makes it easy. Follow these steps to
Install ScriptCraft on your computer...
1. [Download and install CanaryMod][dlcm] then follow the [CanaryMod ## Installing and Running SpigotMC
Installation Instructions][cmadmin].
2. Start the CanaryMod server, then once it has started up, stop it Follow these steps to download and install SpigotMC.
by typing 'stop'. If you go to the CanaryMod folder (see step 1) you
should see some new files and subfolders.
3. [Download the latest version of the ScriptCraft Mod][sc-plugin]. Then copy the ScriptCraft.jar file to the 1. Download Spigot's [BuildTools.jar][spigotdl]
`plugins` folder (This folder won't be created until you run CanaryMod for the first time (see previous step). 2. Save the BuildTools.jar file to a new directory called spigotmc.
3. Open a terminal (Mac and Linux) or command prompt (windows) window and type `java -jar BuildTools.jar`. This will kick off a long series of commands to "build" SpigotMC.
4. When the build is done, there will be a new file beginning with `spigot` and ending in `.jar` in the spigotmc directory. Run this file by typing `java -jar spigot-1.10.2.jar` (it might not be that exact name - you can list files in the directory by typing `dir` (Windows) or `ls` (Mac and Linux).
5. The server will start up then shut down very shortly afterwards. You'll need to edit a file called `eula.txt` - change `eula=false` to `eula=true` and save the file.
6. Run the `java -jar spigot-1.10.2.jar` command again - this time the server will start up. Shut it down by typing `stop` at the server prompt.
4. Start up the CanaryMod server again (see [instructions for starting the server][cmadmin]). ## Installing ScriptCraft
5. In the CanaryMod command window type `op {your_username}` and hit Follow these steps to download and install ScriptCraft.
enter, replacing {your_username} with your own minecraft
username. This will give you `operator` access meaning you can perform
more commands than are normally available in Minecraft. You should
make yourself a server operator (Server operators have full privileges
for the server) permanently by editing the ops.txt file
and adding your username (one username per line).
6. In the CanaryMod command window type `js 1 + 1` and hit enter. You should see `> 2` . 1. Download the [scriptcraft.jar][dl] plugin and save it to the `plugins` directory and restart the server by typing `java -jar spigot-1.10.2.jar`.
2. At the server prompt type `js 1 + 1` and hit enter. The result `2` should be displayed.

the ScriptCraft Mod and are now ready to begin programming in Minecraft.
Normally, Minecraft Mods are written in Java. This makes writing your
own extension or game rules difficult because you must first learn Java.
Java is different enough from Javascript. With the ScriptCraft plug-in
installed, you don't have to learn Java, you can extend and customize
Minecraft your way using Javascript. Javascript is easier to learn than
Java but it's also more flexible and powerful and is used for creating
interactive web sites and many other applications.
## CanaryMod and Permissions
CanaryMod works slightly differently to CraftBukkit in how it handles
permissions and groups. By default, there are 4 groups: visitors,
players, mods and admins. Each player who joins the game is added to the
'visitors' group. This group has no permissions by default so
visitors can't break or place blocks. If you would like to change this
behaviour then issue the following command at the console window:
groupmod permission add visitors canary.world.build
If you would like all admins to have scripting ability then issue the
following command:
groupmod permission add admins scriptcraft.evaluate
This will enable all admins on your server to issue javascript statements.
All operators can issue any command (including the `/js` command to evaluate javascript).
For more information on CanaryMod's Permissions and Groups see the following:
* [Permissions and Groups][cmPerms]
* [List of Permissions][cmPermsList]
