Chrly
Chrly is a lightweight implementation of Minecraft skins system server with ability to proxy requests to Mojang's skins system. It's packaged and distributed as a Docker image and can be downloaded from Dockerhub. App is written in Go, can withstand heavy loads and is production ready.
Installation
You can easily install Chrly using docker-compose. The configuration below (save
it as docker-compose.yml
) can be used to start a Chrly server. It relies on CHRLY_SECRET
and CHRLY_SIGNING_KEY
environment variables that you must set before running docker-compose up -d
. Other possible variables are described
below.
version: '2'
services:
app:
image: elyby/chrly
hostname: chrly0
restart: always
links:
- redis
volumes:
- ./data/capes:/data/capes
ports:
- "80:80"
environment:
CHRLY_SECRET: replace_this_value_in_production
CHRLY_SIGNING_KEY: base64: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

Tip: to generate a value for the CHRLY_SIGNING_KEY
use the command below and then join it with a base64:
prefix.
openssl genrsa 4096 | base64 -w0
Chrly uses some volumes to persist storage for capes and Redis database. The configuration above mounts them to the host machine to do not lose data on container recreations.
Config
Application's configuration is based on the environment variables. You can adjust config by modifying environment
key
inside your docker-compose.yml
file. After value will have been changed, container should be stopped and recreated.
If environment variables have been changed, Docker will automatically recreate the container, so you only need to up
it again:
docker-compose up -d app
Variables to adjust:
ENV | Description | Example |
---|---|---|
STORAGE_REDIS_HOST |
By default, Chrly tries to connect to the redis host
(by service name in docker-compose configuration).
|
localhost |
STORAGE_REDIS_PORT | Specifies the Redis connection port. | 6379 |
STORAGE_REDIS_POOL | By default, Chrly creates pool with 10 connection, but you may want to increase it | 20 |
STATSD_ADDR | StatsD can be used to collect metrics | localhost:8125 |
SENTRY_DSN | Sentry can be used to collect app errors | https://public:private@your.sentry.io/1 |
QUEUE_STRATEGY |
Sets the strategy for the queue in the batch provider of Mojang UUIDs. Allowed values are periodic
and full-bus (see #24).
|
periodic |
QUEUE_LOOP_DELAY | Parameter is sets the delay before each iteration of the Mojang's textures queue (Go's duration) | 3s200ms |
QUEUE_BATCH_SIZE |
Sets the count of usernames, which will be sent to the
Mojang's API to exchange them to their UUIDs.
The current limit is 10 , but it may change in the future, so you may want to adjust it.
|
10 |
MOJANG_TEXTURES_ENABLED | Allows to completely disable Mojang textures provider for unknown usernames. Enabled by default. | true |
MOJANG_API_BASE_URL | Allows you to spoof the Mojang's API server address. | https://api.mojang.com |
MOJANG_SESSION_SERVER_BASE_URL | Allows you to spoof the Mojang's Session server address. | https://sessionserver.mojang.com |
TEXTURES_EXTRA_PARAM_NAME | Sets the name of the extra property in the signed textures response. | your-name |
TEXTURES_EXTRA_PARAM_VALUE | Sets the value of the extra property in the signed textures response. | your awesome joke! |
If something goes wrong, you can always access logs by executing docker-compose logs -f app
.
Endpoints
Each endpoint that accepts username
as a part of an url takes it case-insensitive. The .png
postfix can be omitted.
GET /skins/{username}.png
This endpoint responds to requested username
with a skin texture. If user's skin was set as texture's link, then it'll
respond with the 301
redirect to that url. If the skin entry isn't found, it'll request textures information from
Mojang's API and if it has a skin, than it'll return a 301
redirect to it.
GET /cloaks/{username}.png
It responds to requested username
with a cape texture. If the cape entry isn't found, it'll request textures
information from Mojang's API and if it has a cape, than it'll return a 301
redirect to it.
GET /textures/{username}
This endpoint forms response payloads as if it was the textures
' property, but without base64 encoding. For example:
{
"SKIN": {
"url": "http://example.com/skin.png",
"metadata": {
"model": "slim"
}
},
"CAPE": {
"url": "http://example.com/cape.png"
}
}
If both the skin and the cape entries aren't found, it'll request textures information from Mojang's API and if it has a textures property, than it'll return decoded contents.
That request is handy in case when your server implements authentication for a game server (e.g. join/hasJoined operation) and you have to respond with hasJoined request with an actual user textures. You have to simply send request to the Chrly server and put the result in your hasJoined response.
GET /profile/{username}
This endpoint behaves exactly like the
Mojang's UUID -> Profile + Skin/Cape endpoint, but using
a username instead of the UUID. Just like in the Mojang's API, you can append ?unsigned=false
part to URL to sign
the textures
property. If the textures for the requested username aren't found, it'll request them through the
Mojang's API, but the Mojang's signature will be discarded and the textures will be re-signed using the signature key
for your Chrly instance.
Response example:
{
"id": "0f657aa8bfbe415db7005750090d3af3",
"name": "username",
"properties": [
{
"name": "textures",
"signature": "signature value",
"value": "base64 encoded value"
},
{
"name": "chrly",
"value": "how do you tame a horse in Minecraft?"
}
]
}
The base64 value
string for the textures
property decoded:
{
"timestamp": 1614387238630,
"profileId": "0f657aa8bfbe415db7005750090d3af3",
"profileName": "username",
"textures": {
"SKIN": {
"url": "http://example.com/skin.png"
},
"CAPE": {
"url": "http://example.com/cape.png"
}
}
}
If username can't be found locally and can't be obtained from the Mojang's API, empty response with 204
status code
will be sent.
Note that this endpoint will try to use the UUID for the stored profile in the database. This is an edge case, related to the situation where the user is available in the database but has no textures, which caused them to be retrieved from the Mojang's API.
GET /signature-verification-key.der
This endpoint returns a public key that can be used to verify textures signatures. The key is provided in DER
format,
so it can be used directly in the Authlib, without modifying the signature checking algorithm.
GET /signature-verification-key.pem
The same endpoint as the previous one, except that it returns the key in PEM
format.
GET /textures/signed/{username}
Actually, this is the Ely.by's feature called Server Skins System, but if you have your own source of Mojang's signatures, then you can pass it with textures and it'll be displayed in response of this endpoint. Received response should be directly sent to the client without any modification via game server API.
Response example:
{
"id": "0f657aa8bfbe415db7005750090d3af3",
"name": "username",
"properties": [
{
"name": "textures",
"signature": "signature value",
"value": "base64 encoded value"
},
{
"name": "chrly",
"value": "how do you tame a horse in Minecraft?"
}
]
}
If there is no requested username
or mojangSignature
field isn't set, 204
status code will be sent.
You can adjust URL to /textures/signed/{username}?proxy=true
to obtain textures information for provided username
from Mojang's API. The textures will contain unmodified json with addition property with name "chrly" as shown in
the example above.
GET /skins?name={username}
Equivalent of the GET /skins/{username}.png
, but constructed especially for old Minecraft versions, where username
placeholder wasn't used.
GET /cloaks?name={username}
Equivalent of the GET /cloaks/{username}.png
, but constructed especially for old Minecraft versions, where username
placeholder wasn't used.
Records manipulating API
Each request to the internal API should be performed with the Bearer authorization header. Example curl request:
curl -X POST -i http://chrly.domain.com/api/skins \
-H "Authorization: Bearer Ym9zY236Ym9zY28="
You can obtain token by executing docker-compose run --rm app token
.
POST /api/skins
Endpoint allows you to create or update skin record for a username.
The request body must be encoded as application/x-www-form-urlencoded
.
Request params:
Field | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
identityId | int | Unique record identifier. |
username | string | Username. Case insensitive. |
uuid | uuid | UUID of the user. |
skinId | int | Skin identifier. |
is1_8 | bool | Does the skin have the new format (64x64). |
isSlim | bool | Does skin have slim arms (Alex model). |
mojangTextures | string | Mojang textures field. It must be a base64 encoded json string. Not required. |
mojangSignature | string | Signature for Mojang textures, which is required when mojangTextures passed. |
url | string | Actual url of the skin. |
Important: all parameters are always read at least as their default values. So, if you only want to update the username and not pass the skin data it will reset all skin information. If you want to keep the data, you should always pass the full set of parameters.
If successful you'll receive 201
status code. In the case of failure there will be 400
status code and errors list
as json:
{
"errors": {
"identityId": [
"The identityId field must be numeric"
]
}
}
DELETE /api/skins/id:{identityId}
Performs record removal by identity id. Request body is not required. On success you will receive 204
status code.
On failure it'll be 404
with the json body:
{
"error": "Cannot find record for requested user id"
}
DELETE /api/skins/{username}
Same endpoint as above but it removes record by identity's username. Have the same behavior, but in case of failure response will be:
{
"error": "Cannot find record for requested username"
}
Health check
GET /healthcheck
This endpoint can be used to programmatically check the status of the server.
If all internal checks are successful, the server will return 200
status code with the following body:
{
"status": "OK"
}
If any of the checks fails, the server will return 503
status code with the following body:
{
"status": "Service Unavailable",
"errors": {
"mojang-batch-uuids-provider-queue-length": "the maximum number of tasks in the queue has been exceeded"
}
}
Development
First of all you should install the latest stable version of Go and set GOPATH
environment variable.
Then you must fork this repository. Now follow these steps:
# Get the source code
git clone https://github.com/elyby/chrly.git
# Switch to the project folder
cd chrly
# Install dependencies
go mod download
# Add your fork link as a remote
git remote add fork git@github.com:your-username/chrly.git
# Create a new branch for your task
git checkout -b iss-123
You only need to execute go run main.go
to run the project, but without Redis database and a secret key it won't work
for very long. You have to export CHRLY_SECRET
environment variable globally or pass it via env
:
env CHRLY_SECRET=some_local_secret go run main.go serve
Redis can be installed manually, but if you have Docker installed, you can run predefined docker-compose service. Simply execute the next commands:
cp docker-compose.dev.yml docker-compose.yml
docker-compose up -d
If your Redis instance isn't located at the localhost
, you can change host by editing environment variable
STORAGE_REDIS_HOST
.
After all of that go run main.go serve
should successfully start the application.
To run tests execute go test ./...
