Velocity Plugin MavenLoaderAPI

MavenLoaderAPI for Velocity

MavenLoaderAPI is a utility plugin and external dependency loader for a Minecraft server running the Velocity proxy. Instead of bundling every library inside each plugin package, it retrieves declared Maven dependencies separately and makes them available when the dependent plugin loads. This approach keeps plugin files lighter while preserving access to commonly used Java libraries.

Designed for Java 17 and Velocity 3.3.0 or later, it supports repository and dependency declarations through maven.yml, with repository whitelisting to reduce the risk of untrusted sources. At BoxToPlay, we see it as a practical foundation for proxy plugins that need cleaner packaging and simpler dependency management.
