Restartify

Restartify v1.0.0 Beta — Test release

Restartify provides reliable server restarts by implementing a customizable countdown system. The plugin eliminates abrupt disconnections by broadcasting scheduled chat announcements and displaying an on-screen BossBar. Once the countdown concludes, it executes the restart using the server core's native method.

Key Features

• Dynamic BossBar Countdown — A live progress bar that smoothly tracking the remaining time. Supports configuration of colors (PINK, BLUE, RED, GREEN, YELLOW, PURPLE, WHITE) and styles (SOLID, NOTCHED_6/10/12/20). Players joining mid-countdown will see the active BossBar automatically.
• Scheduled Chat Alerts — Flexible notification modes including fixed intervals every N seconds (INTERVAL), exact custom timings such as 60/30/15/10/5/4/3/2/1 seconds (SCHEDULE), or completely silent operation (OFF).
• Hybrid Text Formatting — Comprehensive support for both MiniMessage and legacy formats simultaneously. Developers and admins can combine advanced tags (<red>, <bold>, gradient:#ff0000:#0000ff) and classic color codes (&c, &l, &#RRGGBB) within a single line.
• Administrative Logging — When a restart is initiated, all server operators receive a notification specifying the initiator (player name or Console).
• Real-Time Control Commands — The /reboot cancel command immediately stops the active countdown and removes the BossBar from all clients. The /reboot reload command hot-reloads the configuration file without disrupting any running timers.
• Zero Dependencies — Built directly on top of the Adventure API, which natively ships with Paper, eliminating the need for external libraries.
