Plugin PySpigot

PySpigot, Python scripting for Minecraft servers

PySpigot is a Bukkit plugin for Spigot and Paper that adds a Python scripting engine to a Minecraft server. Using Jython, it runs scripts directly on the Java Virtual Machine and gives them access to the Bukkit API, Java libraries, and APIs exposed by other loaded plugins.

Scripts can behave like compact plugins: they may listen for events, register commands, schedule synchronous or asynchronous tasks, manage configuration files, and integrate with tools such as ProtocolLib and PlaceholderAPI. Scripts can be loaded, reloaded, or unloaded while the server is running, making PySpigot useful for rapid customization. At BoxToPlay, we see it as a flexible option for administrators who prefer Python to Java.
