A simple proxy for use during development. It proxies a connection between client and server and prints out packets going over the network.

This tool is useful when figuring out how Minecraft implements features over the protocol.

Usage

To set up the proxy with a vanilla server and client:

• Start the vanilla 1.16.5 server. Make sure to set online-mode=false or the proxy will not work for the time being.
• Run the proxy with cargo run --bin proxy -- --proxy-address 127.0.0.1:25577 --server-address 127.0.0.1:25565.
• Connect your client to localhost:25577.

To set up the proxy with feather server:

• Build and start feather (See main README.md)
• In the config.toml set online_mode = false.
• Run the proxy with cargo run --bin proxy -- --proxy-address 127.0.0.1:25577 --server-address 127.0.0.1:25565.
• Connect your client to localhost:25577.

The proxy supports multiple client connections, in case you need to debug protocol semantics with multiple players.
