CraftBukkitUpToDate
Keep your Server/Plugins up to date
After the plugin detect a new build, it download to bukkit_update in the main-Folder. After that you must stop your server and copy the craftbukkit.jar from bukkit_update to your main-Folder.
After Version 1.4 I support plugins if a new version found it download to build_update/plugins. After that stop your server and copy/move the new files to your plugin-Folder
This is no autoupdater, it only download the new Version do the update-Folder, the user have to copy the files. On this way, he know which plugins he update and can check if he like to update.
I recommend to save your old craftbukkit.jar/plugin before update. Not all builds from CraftBukkit work correctly.

Permissions
Permissions/GroupManager is optional else only ops can use the commands. Available permission nodes are (case sensitive):

- craftbukkituptodate.plugin - these users can use plugin-Command
- craftbukkituptodate.update - these users can use the update-Command
Automatic update
For Linux-User, if you like to move your new plugins automaticly, try the script from Myx0x3: http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/ad...ugins-up-to-date-400.5026/page-10#post-122380
or for more features use the one from Tealk: http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/linux-server-startscript-menu/
or use the Bukkit-Build-In: You can configured it by yourself, all you must do is to open the bukkit.yml and change the update-folder to ../bukkit_update/plugins. I don't recommend this, because all plugins updated automaticly without any user-interactions.
My Plugin didn't supported, how i get it to work with CButD?
There are three ways, you have to make only one of them:
1. Add it to http://dev.bukkit.org/. Your link should be like the jar-File-Name if your jar-File example.jar your link on dev.bukkit.org should be http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/example/. If not no problem you have two other options:
2. Add dev-url to your plugin.yml this should look like : dev-url: http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/example/, please replace the url with your one, else it didn't work. Also you should know that only dev.bukkit.org-Urls works.
Here is a example plugin.yml:
name: Your name main: Your main class version: Your version dev-url: http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/replace this with your url of dev-Bukkit/ commands: your command: description: descrition usage: /<command> <function> [buildnumber] aliases: [alias1, alias2]
3. If option 1 and option 2 didn't work for you let me know this and I add it to my plugin.properties. Please remember I only support dev.bukkit.org-Plugins.
Also you should know that your project at dev.bukkit.org should contain file-Downloads, else I have no chance to check for updates and download the newest version.

FAQ
Did the plugin.properties update automaticly?
Yes, if a new one available it update automatic.
Did you download all plugins every time to check for updates?
No, I use the rss-Feed of dev-bukkit
Do you automatic update my plugins?
No I'm only download the new version to bukkit_update/plugins you have to copy them to your Plugin-Folder. I will never implement a autoupdater, you are the Admin and you have to choose which plugins you like to update. This is only a little help to do this.
How can I choose if between recommend and beta version?
In CraftBukkitUpToDate.properties set recommendedBuild=true, if you like the recommend Build, or recommendedBuild=false if you like the beta-Version.
Now that Bukkit supports a plugin update folder, will CBUTD add support for it, so we are able to run a /reload after CBUTD runs and have the updated plugins load?
Not by default. But you can configured it by yourself, all you must do is to open the bukkit.yml and change the update-folder to ../bukkit_update/plugins. I don't recommend this, because all plugins updated automaticly without any user-interactions.
Can I add additonal Plugin Folders that will be check if I like to deactivate a plugin but check for updates?
Yes, use the additionalPluginDirs-Option in the CraftBukkitUpToDate.properties
@NoFear13
seems you have removed my plugin requests?

@NoFear13
Sorry for bothering you again..but how do I check if this checks for updates for a certain plugin? I open the file plugin.properties, but that doesn't list them all, there are some that it updates that aren't on that list.
@NoFear13
Is the plugin path case sensitive? Most of my server's plugins (even ones I know are on dev.bukkit) do not work.
@AwesomeMarioFan
Sry, but the most of them already works. Please cleanup your list, else I could check why the update didn't work
Hello!
I realize this is a large list of plugins, but it would mean a lot to my server and I if you would add them.
Thanks in Advance :)
Here's a list of the plugins along with their bukkitdev links.
Sorry, I don't know how to get spoilers working o.o
I edited out the list of plugins to prevent spam.

It's no bug, it's a feature.
is this a bug?:
i have installed the newest dev build 2358 and the channel is still rb.
console prints everytime: 06:57 AM [INFO] CButD: New CraftBukkit Build 2340 available. Restart the Server to download.
but if i do it manually:
07:01 AM [INFO] CButD: Your Build 2358 newest Build 2340 think your up to date ;-) 07:01 AM [INFO] CButD: CraftBukkit is up to Date
@NoFear13
thx, for these mods, cbutd only works if the jar is exactly named as in your plugin.properties. might it be possible to extend this to also some kind of versioning?
for example
RealWeather.jar is named in your plugin.properties, but i want to name it RealWeather-1.3.1R2 but the cbutd does not find this plugin then anymore... :(

great plugin, but i have a feature request:
might it be possible to define the plugin list in the config? I want to extend the newplugin.properties files which will be loaded from dropbox by myself.
Can you add a setting to your config files like:
pluginlist=http://dl.dropbox.com/u/23882137/newplugin.properties
that would be great
@diannetea
look a line above the error, you should see which plugin make problems
can we please just add the plugin urls manually like we used to be able to?
the error also doesn't seem to have changed
@OriginalMadman
To help you I need the url of every plugin. Else I couldn't do anything for you.
Thanks
@diannetea
One of your plugins broken open each jar with a ZipEditor and check which one broken. I check if I could change this message so it's easier to read.
@FateAverie
@andy83pl
See the Comment of FateAverie, that's why I didn't add a user-Properties, because there user like this one who have no plan what they doing.
@FateAverie: This plugin should already work with any changes
