MCdigr
MCdigr will be permanently shutting down its services on May 3 due to unforeseen circumstances. We greatly appreciate all of our users, and wish we could continue providing Minecraft stats for all. Keep on digging!
We dig your craft!
Notice
Since the plugin is still in it's beta phase, you MUST stay current to use our service!
About MCdigr.com
MCdigr.com tracks and stores a growing set of Minecraft statistics across servers. Server owners install our plugin, and any players that play on these servers will have their stats tracked. Server stats are tracked too!
By logging in to MCdigr.com, server owners can monitor and see their system's operation in many viewports that are synchronized and dynamically updating.
Our backend system is designed to scale with the incoming data. Our interface is sleek, simple, and well tested.
About MCdigr Plugin
The plugin collects statistics and sends the results every 1, 5 or 15 minutes to MCdigr.com. As a fail-safe for network congestion, the plugin implements a fault tolerance policy - it retains a server's stats locally for up to 24 hours.
Engineering the MCdigr plugin so that it does the heavy lifting without interfering with gameplay was a real challenge. Before our public release, we had relentlessly tested the plugin on a server that constantly had 150+ active players at any given time.
Configuration
Statistics collection can be controlled from config.yml. The default set is good enough for most people! You must download it after you add a server to mcdigr.com, and then add it the MCdigr directory in bukkit's plugin directory.
Each server has a unique code that is automatically inserted into your config.yml file when you download it. The plugin disables itself if the code is not there. To disable a statistic from being collected, simply remove it from the enabled list in config.yml.
Port 37996
Please have port 37996 open or the plugin will not be able to communicate with the MCdigr servers. While most Minecraft hosts allow all outbound connections, a few large hosts do block outbound ports by default. Contacting your host should quickly resolve this.
Tracked Statistics
- Active players Tracks the players seen in the last interval
- Block breaks Tracks who broke what (the type of the block destroyed)
- Block placement Tracks who placed what (the type of the block placed)
- Chat Tracks the number of chats, player and systemwise. This DOES NOT track WHAT is said!
- Death Tracks who/what dies
- Economy balances Tracks player balances, if you have Vault installed.
- Entities Tracks the total number of entities in all worlds.
- Entity explosions Tracks creeper, TNT, fireball and wither skull explosions!
- Kick Tracks who was kicked and when
- Login Tracks all login attempts (successful and not)
- Player experience level Reports a player's last known experience level
- Player time Tracks how much time a player spends on your server
- ServerInfo Records some environment info at start
- Tick rate Reports the average tick rate from the last interval
We value your suggestions and feedback!
100% support over this plugin. Light, full of information, developing as you read that comment.
Works great on small or big servers.

Please paste three or four lines of the log so that I can see what needs to be changed.
I'm using 20120629-1410 (latest version) and i get massive spam in console at times.
Thanks for accepting Edict. My only suggestion would be to allow us to exclude certain players from statistics. It dirties the numbers a bit when doing administrative work that requires the use of operator powers.
@dickwick
The error message you are receiving means that your server address on your settings page (mcdigr.com/user/settings) does not correspond with the address of your server. Perhaps your IP address changed and you did not update it on the site? Please contact us at mcdigr.com/contact with your account email address so that we can look deeper into what is going on. Thanks for being a beta user!
Still getting
[WARNING] [MCdigr] Verification Reply: Service Error 6. Please tell the fine folks at MCdigr.com if this happens.
when loading plugin :( It worked before and I got some stats digged before, but now it won't work.
Tried new config, tried to delete whole MCdigr folder in plugins and everything is the same :(
@ben3683914
Thanks, Ben!
We really appreciate your support and encouragement, and we'll keep pushing to improve MCdigr in every way. Keep watching, and I'm sure you'll be very pleased with some of the features we have coming out shortly!
Awesome thanks! I also donated a little bit, it's not much, but I'll probably donate some more down the road :)
@ben3683914
Hey Ben,
We've got a few fixes coming out for the avatar display coming out, they'll be up on the site after a few more tweaks, look for it to be fixed tomorrow at latest.
Thanks for the heads up about that!
Just a little bug on the web site. For the player stats. The avatar that display, the sides of the head are backwards ;)
@mcdigr
D'oh ! My bad - I was using an older .jar - I downloaded the latest and it's all good now !
Thanks,
Mike
@mikesheen
Hey Mike,
I thought I'd fixed that in the last jar. Which version are you using?
Hi,
Can we please have an option to not have MCDigr put entries in the log file ? It is quite verbose and not the conventional format - it is interfering with scripts and processes I have in place to examine logs.
Thanks,
Mike
@Alpha52
Oops. I had that set before, and disabled it for some reason. I've uploaded a fixed jar that should only print warnings to the log by default.
Thanks for catching that, Alpha52!
Add a config option to turn off the 30 sec log file debug spam or this is unusable. http://pastebin.com/dK0Fnxtt Obviously that's only a snippet of the debug log. It's like 500 lines every 30 secs.

@darkcloud784
Sorry for the confusion. I'll fix that in the next release.
@mcdigr
Just wanted to make sure, because it doesnt create its own directory or config file which is much more inconvenient for administrators, its also extremely confusing.
@darkcloud784
You treat it like any other plugin. The config.yml should appear as: ... plugins/MCdigr/config.yml
In your case, it should be: /home/main/multicraft/servers/main/plugins/MCdigr/config.yml
Please comment after you try it. Hope it works!
Your FAQ isnt clear about this, do you put the config.yml in the root of the plugins directory? IE /home/main/multicraft/servers/main/plugins for instance? OR do you put it in its own folder like any other plugin? /home/main/multicraft/servers/main/plugins/MCdigr/
