This will walk you through installing HuskSync on your network of Spigot servers.
## Requirements
> **Note:** If the plugin fails to load, please check that you are not running an [incompatible version combination](Unsupported-Versions)
* A MySQL Database (v8.0+) (MariaDB, PostrgreSQL or MongoDB are also supported)
* A Redis Database (v5.0+) — see [[FAQs]] for more details.
* Any number of Spigot servers, connected by a BungeeCord or Velocity-based proxy (Minecraft v1.17.1+, running Java 17+)
## Setup Instructions
### 1. Install the jar
- Place the plugin jar file in the `/plugins/` directory of each Spigot server.
- You do not need to install HuskSync as a proxy plugin.
- You can additionally install [ProtocolLib](https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/protocollib.1997/) or [PacketEvents](https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/packetevents-api.80279/) for better locked user handling, and [Plan](https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/plan-player-analytics.32536/) for analytics.
### 2. Restart servers
- Start, then stop every server to let HuskSync generate the [[config file]].
- HuskSync will throw an error in the console and disable itself as it is unable to connect to the database. You haven't set the credentials yet, so this is expected.
- Advanced users: If you'd prefer, you can create one config.yml file and create symbolic links in each `/plugins/HuskSync/` folder to it to make updating it easier.
### 3. Enter Mysql & Redis database credentials
- Navigate to the HuskSync config file on each server (`~/plugins/HuskSync/config.yml`)
- Under `credentials` in the `database` section, enter the credentials of your (MySQL/MariaDB/MongoDB/PostgreSQL) Database. You shouldn't touch the `connection_pool` properties.
- Under `credentials` in the `redis` section, enter the credentials of your Redis Database. If your Redis server doesn't have a password, leave the password blank as it is.
- Unless you want to have multiple clusters of servers within your network, each with separate user data, you should not change the value of `cluster_id`.

<summary>Important &mdash; MongoDB Users</summary>
- Navigate to the HuskSync config file on each server (`~/plugins/HuskSync/config.yml`)
- Set `type` in the `database` section to `MONGO`
- Under `credentials` in the `database` section, enter the credentials of your MongoDB Database. You shouldn't touch the `connection_pool` properties.
<details>
<summary>Additional configuration for MongoDB Atlas users</summary>
- Navigate to the HuskSync config file on each server (`~/plugins/HuskSync/config.yml`)
- Set `using_atlas` in the `mongo_settings` section to `true`.
- Remove `&authSource=HuskSync` from `parameters` in the `mongo_settings`.
(The `port` setting in `credentials` is disregarded when using Atlas.)

### 4. Set server names in server.yml files
- Navigate to the HuskSync server name file on each server (`~/plugins/HuskSync/server.yml`)
- Set the `name:` of the server in this file to the ID of this server as defined in the config of your proxy (e.g., if this is the "hub" server you access with `/server hub`, put `'hub'` here)
### 5. Start every server again
- Provided your MySQL and Redis credentials were correct, synchronization should begin as soon as you start your servers again.
