Mineserver uses a C-plugin API which is described in this page.

Creating a plugin

You will need to include plugin_api.h to your project.

...write some more stuff here...

Example plugin structure:

 #include "plugin_api.h"
 #define PLUGIN_VERSION 1.0
 mineserver_pointer_struct* mineserver;
 PLUGIN_API_EXPORT void (plugin_name)_init(mineserver_pointer_struct* mineserver_temp)
 {
   mineserver = mineserver_temp;
   if (mineserver->plugin.getPluginVersion("(plugin_name)") > 0)
   {
     mineserver->screen.log("(plugin_name) is already loaded v." +dtos(mineserver->plugin.getPluginVersion("(plugin_name)")));
     return;
   }
   mineserver->screen.log("Loaded \"(plugin_name)\"!");
   mineserver->plugin.setPluginVersion("(plugin_name)", PLUGIN_VERSION);
   mineserver->callback.add_hook("ChatPre", (void *)chatPreFunction);
 }
 PLUGIN_API_EXPORT void (plugin_name)_shutdown(void)
 {
   if (mineserver->plugin.getPluginVersion("(plugin_name)") <= 0)
   {
     mineserver->screen.log("(plugin_name) is not loaded!");
     return;
   }
 }
