⚙️ Setup

#Database

Every server has to point at the same database, with the same name and the same table prefix, in the database section of the plugin's config:

database:
  type: mysql
  address: localhost
  name: phoenixshop_db
  port: 3306
  username: phoenixuser
  password: phoenixpassword
  table-prefix: ps

The type can be mysql or mariadb. On sqlite, the default, the add-on refuses to load and the console says to switch, since a file on one server has nothing to share.

#Shop files

Stock is matched between servers by the shop, category and item identifiers. Copy the same shop files to every server, or an item named differently on two servers is counted as two items.

#When the database is unreachable

If the database cannot be reached when the server starts, the add-on does not load and each server counts its own stock again.

If the connection drops while running, items with a stock or a player limit cannot be bought until the database answers again. This stops a player from hopping to another server to get past a limit. Items without a stock or limit are not affected.

#Removing it

Taking the jar out of a server's addons folder puts that server back on its own count.
