Build Status Docs Status Coverage Status

SpockBot currently supports Minecraft 1.8.8

Minecraft bot framework written in Python, currently under heavy development.

Client could loosely be called "event-driven". By default plugins register handler functions to handle events that may or may not be emitted by other plugins. Everything is a plugin in SpockBot, including the event loop/framework itself, so you can feel free to rip out the entire back end and replace it with your framework or paradigm of choice. As long as you provide the same simple APIs, other plugins won't know the difference.

We're only just getting started with documentation so if you're uncomfortable reading source code this might not be the framework for you. Or, better yet, hop on IRC and help us write some docs!

SpockBot officially supports Python 3.x and Python 2.7.x on *nix operating systems and requires cryptography. It also runs on Windows and under PyPy 2.6.x but that's not regularly tested and could be broken at any given moment. If you support one of those use cases and SpockBot breaks for you, submit an issue with a stack trace and we'll try to fix it.

Features

  • World Interaction (finding, placing, breaking)
  • Vanilla Physics
  • Pathfinding
  • Inventory (player, chests, etc)
  • Crafting
  • Entity Tracking

Dependencies

Installation

Note: The cryptography library has some extra dependencies to install, you can find detailed instructions here.
