🌐 LiteBansBridge Version 2.0

Instant Web Interface for LiteBans Turn your BungeeCord Proxy and Bukkit, Paper, Purpur into a LiteBans Web Host instantly.

🌍 Universal Cross-Platform Support

• One Jar Fits All: A single .jar file works flawlessly across multiple server architectures.
• Supported Platforms: * Bukkit
  • Spigot
  • Paper
  • Purpur
  • BungeeCord
  • Waterfall
• BungeeGuard Compatible: By running its own internal HTTP server, the web bridge entirely bypasses BungeeGuard proxy firewalls, ensuring it always works even on highly secured backend servers.

🌐 Dual-Website System

The plugin now hosts two completely separate web interfaces simultaneously on the same port, tailored for different audiences:

• Public Website (http://your-ip:PORT/):
  • No login or authentication required.
  • Allows normal players to view the ban and kick history of the server.
  • Minimalist, safe, and privacy-friendly display.
• Staff Portal (http://your-ip:PORT/staff):
  • Secured by API Key: Requires the secret authentication key to access.
  • Remembers staff logins locally so they don't have to type the key every time.
  • Displays sensitive server information (Player IP Addresses, Last Server Location).

🎨 Modern, Responsive Web Design

Both websites feature a completely overhauled, visually stunning UI:

• Sleek Dark Mode: Built with a modern dark theme using TailwindCSS.
• Live Search & Filtering: Instantly search through punishments by Player Name, Reason, or IP Address without reloading the page.
• Tabbed Interface: Easily switch between Bans and Kicks with smooth animations.
• Dynamic Player Avatars: Automatically fetches 3D Minecraft heads for both the punished player and the punishing staff member.
• Status Badges: Clear, color-coded badges to indicate if a ban is Active, Expired, or Unbanned.

⚡ Live-Reloading & Customization

• Instant HTML Updates: The index.html and staff.html files are extracted to your plugins/LiteBansBridge/ folder. You can edit these files directly (change logos, colors, text) and simply refresh your browser to see the changes. No server restart required!
• Custom Port: Change the web server port (default 8888) to any available port in the config.yml.
• In-Game Commands: Use /lbbridge reload to instantly reload the configuration file, apply new ports, or generate new API keys on the fly.

🔌 Direct LiteBans Database Hook

• Bypasses the need for complex MySQL web setups (like Apache or Nginx).
• Uses the native LiteBansAPI to hook directly into the database already configured by LiteBans.
• Automatically formats Unix timestamps into readable Dates and Expiration times.
• Securely formats SQL queries to prevent injection.
