PocketMap
PocketMap is a web map plugin for PocketMine-MP servers.
What PocketMap is
PocketMap is a web map plugin for PocketMine-MP servers. It provides a 2D view of server worlds, can display online player locations, and updates as chunks render and players place or break blocks. Visitors can zoom, inspect coordinates by hovering over the map, and share a selected location through a URL containing its coordinates. World selection is supported, but only the overworld is stated to have been tested.
Server owners can add markers as icons, circles, polygons, or polylines, either by hand or through commands. Other PocketMine-MP plugins can use the marker system when configured as a soft dependency. PocketMap uses the Bedrock vanilla resource pack and server resource packs; encrypted packs are not implemented. Install it in a PocketMine-MP server’s plugins folder, restart the server, then open the map at the server’s web address. The default port is 3000, though other hosting may require a different allocated and configured port. PocketMap is free and licensed under GPL-3.0. The repository warns that releases before v0.6.4 have a critical vulnerability, and advises using a release with PMMP WebServer virion v0.5.4 or later.
